Vehicles[]

Tanks[]

Currently Croatian Army operates 72 M84A4 tanks, tanks are deployed in to 5 armoured companies with each company of 14 tanks, or two armoured battalions. Further two tanks are used for training. At one point army was looking at modernizing M84A4 tank with an update to A5 standard, which would see installation of improved fire control, new battlefield management system, 3rd generation thermal sight, advanced ERA armour package consisting of reactive and passive armour tile covering 180 degree of front face of the tank and much of the roof of the tank, increasing armoured protection of the tank from current 590mm to some 750mm frontal protection. Modernization also included new power pack and rubber inserts for tank tracks and new communication and GPS navigation equipment. However cost of upgrade exceeded budget available so only limited general overhaul was agreed which includes only rubber track insets for tank tracks and complete overhaul of M84 tank at allocated cost of around $450 000 per tank. Upgrade of tank to M84A5 standard would have costed around 23 million kuna per tank or just over 1.65 billion kuna for the entire fleet or roughly $252 million. Croatian Army plans to replace M84A4 tanks with Western made tank, either Leopard 2A7V/A8, Korean K2 Black Panther tank or French Leclerc Tank, however it is not clear when this might happen, when it does happen, it is estimated if Croatian Army replaced M84A4 tanks one for one basis, new tanks could cost the Army some €720 million, so for now at least purchase of new tanks isn't a priority.

The fleet is undergoing limited overhaul with 4 tanks to be refurbished by the year's end at the cost of US$440,000 per vehicle.[25].Plan is to replace tanks with NATO standard such as Leopard 2 tanks at some point but due to shortage of funds this isn't a priority.

Tracked vehicles[]

Army relies heavily on Yugoslav era armoured vehicles in its inventory, M80A which was developed in late 1970s to meet Yugoslav Army requirements. Croatian Army inherited some 134 vehicles from Yugoslav Army through capture of said vehicles in early 1990s, some 128 were pressed in to service with the Croatian Army currently, deployed in to 2 mechanized infantry battalions with one additional M80A company attached to 2nd Armoured Battalion of Armoured Mechanized Brigade. For past 10 years Army was trying to secure funding for replacement of M80A which are seen as inadequate by modern NATO standards offering poor protection, poor overall performance and high maintenance cost. Croatian Army has secured partial replacement of M80A with upgraded M2A3 Bradley Infantry fighting Vehicles which are being delivered to Croatian Army, some 130 vehicles will be delivered with some 70+ vehicles to join Army after modernization of the vehicles are complete by mid 2020s. There's a good chance Army will order additional vehicles so it can completely retire M80A from service by 2030, it is estimated Army needs 180 Vehicles in total to full-fill that requirement, with 132 Combat vehicles to form 3 mechanized battalions, 24 command vehicles and at least 24 additional vehicles as spare. Beyond current order for 130 vehicles it is not clear if Army will order additional vehicles and when this might happen.

M2 Bradley Pi111804a1.jpg IFV  United States 76+54 76 vehicles (M2A2 ODS) on order, additional 54 will be used for spare parts. A further donations of the same vehicle quite likely, Heavy Mechanized Brigade will need to replace 128 M80A IFVs, replacement by M2 Bradly is one possibility being considered. Order also includes over 1700 BGM-71 TOW missiles of all sorts with support and spare package worth $757 million[26][27][28]

Wheeled armoured personnel vehicles[]

Mainstay of the army's mechanized infantry is the Patria AMV, 127 vehicles are currently in service with at least 20 more to join the service in coming years. Some 108 vehicles are armed with Protector (RWS) Remote Weapon Station and 9 vehicles are armed with Elbit's UT30MK2 turret. Through US Donation the army has received a large number of mine resistant vehicles, including some 172 Oshkosh M-ATV armed with 12.7mm HMG, it is not clear if the army plans to modernize Oshkosh M-ATV with the remote weapon station, but this is one of the longer term priorities.

Combat engineering vehicles[]

The Army maintains impressive arsenal of non-combat engineering vehicles from diggers, loaders and various heavy duty trucks. In this segment army is fully equipped and army engineering units are fully engaged in various domestic and international missions from participating in various UN missions, NATO mission and domestic emergency mission such as flooding, construction of roads or clearing lands for participating in fighting fires. In 2017 Army acquired 2 Kalmar RT 240 Container handlers,[37] and noumber of new CASE[38][39] and JCB[40][41] diggers, loaders and so on.

Anti-aircraft warfare[]

Army is heavily reliant on short range air defence systems Strijela - 10CROA1, which although modernized offers only limited surface to air cover inadequate to deal with modern threats of UAV attack drones and other threats. Army plans to acquire medium range surface to air system with NASAMSIII/ER, Mica VL/NG and SPYDER being among the likely contenders with Mica VL/NG having significant advantage due to Croatian Air Force purchase of Rafale fighters. Croatia plans to acquire at least two batteries, although requirement calls for 4 batteries. Two new SAM batteries are likely to cost in the region of €300 million and with the recent purchase of Rafale, it is quite possible there'll be a delay in decision on new surface to air system.

  • Although Croatia acquired the S-300 long-range surface-to-air missile system in 1994, and demonstrated some of its parts on the 1995 military parade, it is believed that the system was never fully completed and operational although the training of crews was sought as late as 1998. Some sources claim that the weapon was subsequently handed-over to the United States or Israel in 2002–2004. However, officials still claim that the system is stored somewhere in Croatia.

Anti-tank weapons[]

Currently Croatian Army has mix of anti tank systems in play, with vast majority of current inventory dating back to 1990s when during the homeland war, embryonic army managed to capture massive stores of Yugoslav Army weapon stockpiles including large quantity of anti tank missiles of soviet and Yugoslav origin. Croatian Army purchased also noumber of Russian anti tank systems during the same war, systems never used by Yugoslav Army. Many of these systems are now obsolete by modern standards and not compatible with NATO standard equipment. Due to shortage of funds purchase of modern NATO compatible anti tank systems wasn't on the agenda until l recent purchase of Bradley M2 and Patria Infantry fighting Vehicles. Army has secured 20 Spike launchers with at least 200 Spike LR missiles that will be mounted on 9 patria vehicles, with 2 launchers per vehicle, and further two launchers for training. With the purchase of M2 Bradley vehicles, army has received go ahead to attain large quantity of TOW 2 missiles in several configurations, both western missile systems once they enter service will be vehicle mounted, so it is not clear when army plans to replace infantry anti tank missiles, however as there are 7 mechanized infantry combat battalions currently in the army, there's a requirement for large noumber of infantry portable atgm launchers, with requirement for at least 224 launchers. Decision on acquisition of infantry systems is yet to be made, however shortage of funds is certainly something that will play in infantry atgm system timetable. 32Hellfire missile launchers with large noumber of Hellfire Romeo missiles were purchased, for Army and the air force. Future purchases of additional launchers and missiles are very likely, especially if Croatia acquires combat/attack drones and attack helicopters.

Portable RL90 M95 is currently only rocket propelled grande system in service, the missile can penetrate up to 400mm of steel plate, however this is an obsolete system that has little perspective in continued used by the army. Alternatives such as Carl Gustaf and AT4 systems where looked at and few samples were acquired for testing but as of yet no actual order was made. If Army does go ahead and opts out for Carl Gustav system, it is estimated that Army will need 400 to 500 launchers and at least 3000 missiles of various kind costing the budget some €12 million or 90 million kuna. Decision on when the purchase new anti tank grande launchers and missiles is yet to be made, but it'll depend on availability of funds.

Artillery[]

Mortars[]

Army has vast stockpile of Mortars and mortar rounds, estimated at nearly 2000 mortars of various kind and over quarter a million rounds, vast stock of mortars and mortar rounds was inherited from Yugoslav Army when embryonic Croatian Army managed to capture massive Yugoslav army storage in Zagreb, Varazdin, Bjelovar and other towns across Croatia during early days of Croatian fight for independence from Yugoslavia. Currently only a fraction of this arsenal is in use, with the rest stored and in reserve. All systems are NATO compatible so army has no plans to replace these systems. All systems modernized and up to latest NATO standard.

Towed howitzers[]

Croatian Army inherited/captured vast stock of Yugoslav Army artillery and ordnance, much of it now remains stored or awaiting to be disposed off. Due to NATO interoperability Croatian Army has little requirements for outdated Yugoslav era systems however due to lack of funds Army is forced to retain some of the systems such as D-30 Howitzers. Ideally M777 howitzer or CAESAR self-propelled howitzer would be most likely choice for field artillery formations but due to lack of funding this remains a distant prospect.

Self-propelled howitzers[]

Army captured 11 2S1 Gvozdika self propelled howitzers during the Croatia War of Independence and Battle of Barracks but 2 systems where damaged and irreparable with one being displayed in the Army museum in Vukovar. Effectively Croatian army had only one battery of self propelled artillery which caused considerable issue with training and capability offered by somewhat antiquated artillery system. Decision was made to purchase modern self propelled artillery system with Swedish Bofors Archer, American M109 A6 Paladin and German PZH 2000 being favoured. In the end Croatian Army purchased 16 PZH 2000 Howitzers from German Army stock which entered service with the army in 2019. There is a plan to purchase additional PzH 2000 Systems but due to lack of funds this was postponed for time being. Army however plans to purchase at least 6 or 8 additional systems when funds become available.

Number of systems Croatian Army might purchase will solely depend on price of the entire purchase and delivery dates, Croatian Defence budget has set aside some 200 million kuna or $32 million for this program, although it is likely said systems might be donated by the US for symbolic price in turn Croatian MOD paying only VAT for said vehicles in which case price tag might be negligible and affordable.

Tactical Trucks and Multi-use vehicles[]

Croatian Army inherited vast stock of Army trucks and four wheel drive and various transport and utility vehicles during Croatian homeland war and Battle of the Barracks, at lest 250 Fap trucks, 650 TAM trucks and noumber of soviet trucks such as Zil, Ural or Maz were captured and pressed in to military service, many of these vehicles are still in service with the Army, even though some are over 40 years old. Torpedo 4x4 Trucks, light 2.5ton trucks were built in large quantity some 80 samples entered service with the Army in early 90s. However with Croatia joining NATO Army started to look more and more in acquiring western types including MAN TG Mill, Iveco 5T Transport Truck, Mercedes and many more. However due to shortage of funds, delivery of new logistic and tactical trucks is somewhat lackluster and sporadic at best of times. In past few years army started to renew its logistic and tactical truck fleet sporadically with small quantity of new trucks in many case not more than a dozen vehicles at times, but again this is nowhere near the noumbers Army needs. Croatian army stated requirement for 1250 tactical/logistic trucks at present is only desired goal.
