Russian Army ordered the 2S34 Hosta in 2011. First production artillery systems were delivered in 2012. The original 2S1 was adopted back in the early 1970s. It was widely exported to the Soviet allies from all around the world. A number of improvements and modifications were made in order to transform the 2S1 "Gvasdika" into 2S34 "Hosta".
