Was it then re-invented or maybe popularized in these two countries?..
Yes, as far as I understand, canned meat was not so popular among civilians in the USSR before tushonka. And tushonka is usually referred specifically to canned stewed meat, not ham or vegetables.
Old tushonkka was tasty but many of those sold in stores now, especially the cheap ones, are not so tasty and good-quality.

The hikers move from tin canned tushonka to plastic pack like these ones

Thanks for posting this. I knew what Tushonka is from the game Escape from Tarkov, but like other Russian food items in that game, it's presented in a limited, practical context, so it was cool to learn more about it.
"One such solution was a method proposed in 1809 by the French pastry chef Nicolas François Appert, which involved long-cooking meat or vegetables (approximately 1-2 hours) and pasteurizing the finished product in a brine solution. Appert received a personal award for this invention from Napoleon."
