I hope that this puts an end to the shit flinging that usually happens here.

Something that increases the logistics footprint. I am certain that it will have a lot fewer parts than a full flegded truck. From the first round itself? Because if that is the criteria than Caesar fails this as evidenced by your own video. If that is not the case then I don't see any...

You are comparing two different platforms on the basis of weight not roles. 1) ATAGS or Dhanush will have a mounted variant to fulfill same role as Caesar. Initial requirment is of 814 units. Caesar doesn't carry same amount of ammunition as a dedicated artillery tractor. 2) The reason IA...

Usual pooh poohing by Army. Weren't Dhanush 45 and 52 to be used in the mountains?

Winning design will be selected and will be produced by both. As @Shaitan pointed out, Dhanush will be made by OFB.

I seriously doubt it but it is possible. From what I gathered from the open sources is that it is 52 Cal.

I know and I thought it was implied in my earlier posts.

M777-ER is the 52 calibre variant of M777, same as ATAGS.

Yep, my bad. ~~~~~~~~~~||~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

@airtel That's for V-LAP bro, not base bleed. Also G5 is the right equivalent not G6. It is my understanding that unique features of prototypes will be merged as the base design is still DRDO ATAGS. So we can look forwards to ATAGS with Tata's APU and Bharat Forge/ Elbit's autoloader. But I am...

It's a wonderful news if true but chances are that this record will be short lived as M777-ER is claiming a better range. Let's see how it turns out. Another thing is that MOD babu's, Bharat Forge and Mandus better get their act together and move from 39 calibre ULWH to 52 calibre quickly or...

@SilentKiller This is what you want. https://www.orbitalatk.com/defense-systems/armament-systems/pgk/ Turning "dumb" rounds into smart at a very affordable price. Even the initial price of $10000 each is a fraction of other alternatives.

That gun too is American. Designed by Mandus group, produced by Bharat Forge. Difference is that since Baba Kalyani is footing half the bill, India has far more leverage than it could with BAE.

Current numbers are 1580 towed 814 mounted 200 wheeled (probably cancelled or to be clubbed with tracked) 100 tracked (Samsung K9 won the tender) 145 ULH i.e M777 (400 as possible follow on)

New design from the ground up and not an upgraded one like Dhanush. Better, lighter, longer range etc. Minimum 1580 to be ordered, could be doubled.
