I do hope we develop some indigenous version of this Excalibur round, that will be a major enhancement in our army capability.
Time has came to move away from foreign maals if we want some respect in the world community.

yeah, they are too costly..... 5-10 years ago, Precision rounds for Bofors costed Rs 3 Lakhs,
currently such rounds for M777 or K9 may cost Rs 5-7 Lakhs or even more per Round.....

Yeah, right.Expecting a result from these folks who couldn't develop a similar system for the Pinaka rockets despite having been tried since 2012 and you expect them to deliver the same for an artillery shell, which by the way happens to be near infinitely more complex??!!Forgive me if I fail to share your optimism, mate. I've allowed myself to be fooled by such tall claims for too many years now, but no more!!I'll believe it when I see it.

Wait and watch, i think it will happen. It’s just a matter of IA being impressed with accuracy of M982 Excalibur.

No one would be happier to be proven wrong about this than I, kindly rest assured.

I think you have missed the BUS here.

From 2013 till 2019, around dozen tests of guided Pinaka had taken place and that too successfully. But no new order have been placed for the same till now.

Feasibility study of guided Arty shell goes back to 2008 and in 2013 DRDO started working on it. As of 2018 DRDO invited parties to work on the tech with ToT ready to be given to eligible firms.

For you kind information, Kalyani too partnered with Elbit on the same project for Mortar shells. But till now, there kitty is devoid of any order too.
