Is the age of the self propelled assault guns now? Turkey and Indonesia are teaming up for a new mobile gun system.

America wants a new gun under the Mobile Protected Firepower program.
Italy is putting out the Centauro II.
France has been dishing death to hadjis with the AMX-10RC/ERC-90.
Russians giving their paratroopers a new Sprut.
Japan has the MCV program.
A lot of IFV/APC tracked and 8x8 chassis on the market are modular enough to fit guns 90mm and above.

Post self propelled guns. Bonus points for things in service or ordered.

What happened to the Kurganets-25?

I thought it was replacing the Sprut?
Also Tigr with 130mm mortar should be ok as air droppable SPG right?

Vextra 105 prototype.
Turret is a GIAT TML105 firing 105 NATO. The original AMX10RC 105mm was a low pressure gun firing a dedicated shorter round.

Sadly this wonderful 8x8 was replaced by the VBCI which featured a Renault driveline instead of a GIAT one. It later served as a test bed for the 120mm FER (faible effort de recul, low recoil effort) which is also dead in the water but allowed for important breakthroughs.
The age of 90 and 105mm guns on 6x6 will be over with the arrival of the Jaguar, armed with a 40mm CTA and missiles.

And this is the 120 FER testbed.
The turret was designed after the light version of the Leclerc turret.
This would not fit on the current VBCI anyway, but maybe on the heavier VBCI 2.

BMPs can be taken out with an M2, what's your point?

Nothing, Kurgewergy and Boomy are for mechanised divisions.

You can't drop them out of an airplane.

The 120mm Tiger mortar can, but its more mortar than gun. And it's not a program of record yet.

It's just a CV90 chassis with a gun on it.

I bet you think this is a tank too.

Same IFV chassis. I guess you could call it a light or medium tank if you want.

When I was in Iraq, those cannons were firing 24/7 the entire 18 months I was there. I never found out what they were shooting at but holy fuck whatever it was got its ass pounded like no other. It never stopped.

They were infact at first projected as a replacement for the IKV 91 (tank destroyer/assault gun).

IKV stands for Infanterikanonvagn wich roughly translates to Infantry gun wagon or assault gun.
The IKV 91s operated as the infantry brigades own mobile assault weapons to support the assault done by infantry battalions (usually transported in TGB 20 trucks [pic related] or later MT-LBs and BMP-1s).

The age of light vehicles with oversized guns is any age where there hasn't been a major war in a while and countries are looking to save some cash.
