On a side note: even private company capital expenditure contract sales cycles takes anywhere between 2-4 years.

Coming to point: The DAC earlier this month cleared last of the clarifications. don't think cabinet approval is going to be a issue. There is no point in quoting dates from UPA period, Post 2014 we know for a fact that many defence deals have moved forward significantly.

Was not aware of this. Wonder why it did not enter production. Instead of SK SPG we should have used it.

Upgraded M46 guns into 155mm of 45cal, These are old design with help of soltam of Israel ..
What is their range after upgradation? How many will be upgraded? Does India have license to produce M46? Also if D 30 is being upgraded please give some info.

Actually its export version of 155mm SpGH ZUZANA. Built around 1990 in Slovakia, but hadn't seen any production. Wonder if BEML has undertaken any production of it or not.
