Can somebody update on the fake, made in china, muzzle brake installed on the Dhanush artillery piece during testing.

This is quite a beartbreak that crooks are all around the supply chain.

Is the Dhanush final testing still progressing or the gun has been dumped.

Has the guy been hanged or is he simply arrested then to be released later.

'Not Your Bloody Area': Watch India TV's special report to know how Indian Army launches 'Operation Dragon' at India-China border. Indian army jawans are practicing in war like situation at the border. India and China have fought a war in 1962 over border dispute.

Does anyone have any photographs of the 76mm M48 Yugoslavian mountain gun or the 105mm Oto Melara Mod 56 pack howitzer in Indian service? Thanks in advance.

Any progress on the Final Testing of Dhanush 155 mm new artillery gun.

Has the counterfeit muzzle brake been replaced and final phase of testing progressing.

This is a heart break that counterfeit parts were discovered at the last moment.

Nobody answered my earlier query a few weeks back about testing of Dhanush artillery gun. The final test stalled because a faulty (made in china) muzzle brake was passed on as German made. It either broke itself or cracked the barrel - whatever.

No information has been posted on the current state of the testing and replacement of the muzzle break.

The more knowledgeable member, please take a crack at the available information.

The usual procedure is to rectify the problem and re-test the gun in similar condition ..
