Abstract Hadron production (^ π ±, proton, Λ, KS⁰ K S 0, K^ K ±) in ^- + C π - + C and ^- + W π - + W collisions is investigated at an incident pion beam momentum of 1. 7~GeV/c 1. 7 GeV / c. This comprehensive set of data measured with HADES at SIS18/GSI significantly extends the existing world data on hadron production in pion induced reactions and provides a new reference for models that are commonly used for the interpretation of heavy-ion collisions. The measured inclusive differential production cross-sections are compared with state-of-the-art transport model (GiBUU, SMASH) calculations. The (semi-) exclusive channel ^- + A + KS⁰ +X π - + A → Λ + K S 0 + X, in which the kinematics of the strange hadrons are correlated, is also investigated and compared to a model calculation. Agreement and remaining tensions between data and the current version of the considered transport models are discussed.
