Srbija je predstavila novu vučnu haubicu kalibra 155 mm Nora A1. Oruđe poseduje veliku brzinu paljbe od 8 granata u minuti i poluautomatski punjač (verzija AL1) koji smanjuje opterećenje posade. Za transport se koriste dva kamiona Kamaz 43118 od kojih jedan vuce haubicu a drugi prevozi posadu i 40 projektila.
The NORA-A1 are a new member of NORA gun-howitzer family, featured with improved design and 155 mm / 39 cal. barrel with breach block with unique self-sealing system, compatible with all NATO-standard 155 mm ammunition-propellant charge system. The barrel is made of high-quality steel, by a special forging process and heat treated. A muzzle brake of high efficiency (appr 45%) is fitted on the muzzle.
The semi-automatic wedge-type breechblock secures a high rate of fire (8 rds/min), with possibilty of using of semi-automatic loader with pneumatic rammer enabling max. rate of fire increase up to 8 rounds per min. with decreasing of crew fatuque. The counter-recoil syste m with hydraulic brake, compensator and hydro pneumatic recuperator are accommodated on top of the barrel. Thanks to the efficient muzzle brake, the recoilling energy in the counter-recoil system is absorbed over a short recoil path, so that even at high elevations no arrangement of the firing position is required.

Ma znam da moze. Nego je ovo vise pitanje bilo ironicno. Ocigledno je yugoimport sa Kamazom potpisao obavezujuci ugovor. U fazonu moze Kamaz za samohodnu Noru ali cete morati da ga uzimate i za sve buduce projekte.
Karakteristike su jako slične kao kod stare Nore tako da se postavlja pitanja da li je u pitanju novo oružje ili je reč samo o konverziji postojećih haubica vojske Srbije.
