MaK Systems, now Rheinmetall, has developed the Wiesel 2 family of airportable armored vehicles, which are in active service with the German army in various configurations. Among them is a version equipped as a self-propelled 120 mm mortar. The initial prototype of this mortar carrier was finalized in 1997, with a subsequent contract awarded by the German Ministry of Defense to Rheinmetall in 2002 for the supply of two mortar carriers for trials and evaluation. These units were delivered in 2004 and underwent testing in the USA for hot weather trials and in Sweden for cold weather trials in 2005.
