if they have, then these might be heading to armenia as the army has not ordered it yet and there are rumors that we will order a batch of guns by Dec 2023

Sharang Breach

Seems to be lacking quite a lot of automation that is present on the Dhanush

I don't know what they put in the operational version.
I think they did not want to put electronics on display only electronic thing was there is trinetra sight on jvpc and not for my surprise it was not working i thought red dot is not appearing because somebody played with sight settings so i try to check if IR laser is it working with my camera but also it was not working then check the battery, it was there but still not working.

That's what the IAF is saying, not the govt.

They didn't have SAR Imaging sats until now ?

Automation? When was that on OFB's cards!
They simply copied what they had; but as one was copied from a 80s gun and other from a 50s, you see some difference.

We never try to mess with the authenticity of a foreign product. We try our best to match the antiques as much as possible.

Because they don't have much of an electronic to put on their guns. Only the barrel assembly is what they truly make in-house. Other systems are sub-contracted.

These CADs, though rudimentary shows that they put atleast some R&D in barrels

At this point it feels like Mudi Ji should contest 2024 from Yerevan

Why you want the level of automation of an howitzer to be implemented in a FG in the first place. These are meant to be light and cheap artillery.

IIRC Sharang is just an upgrade of M-46. No electronics will be added. I think only loading assist, maybe added. In any case, if I remember correctly, the budget was Rs.200 crores for first 300 Sharang and then another order for next 300

As usual with DPSU, the production is going very slowly and only 60 completed

A look at the cost will give you indication that it is a low cost upgrade of Rs.1 cr Each compare to dhanush which is Rs.15 cr each.
