Never realised that the gun is so huge. Almost 5 6 times the humans standing alongside

It should be ..the 52 cal gun barrel is 8 m long, That's almost 4.5 times an average humans height. Hope these are inducted quickly. IA needs at least 2000 ATAGS asap.

BF says they have a capacity of 250/year, if there really is a 2000 fun requirement orders can be spooky between Tata and BF and all can be delivered in 4-5 years. This is more than doable, it’s up to the IA/MOD to give the orders.

Use your brain. Do you know how many workers or supply chain needed for producing 250 artillery per year. No wonder these guys hav zero order book.

Dhanush had some optimization issues that led to the muzzle strikes and these have been resolved in the recent internal trials.

BEML & OFB launches Force Multiplier 155mm 52 Cal Mounted Gun system

Ordnance Factory Board (OFB) and Bharat Earth Movers Ltd. (BEML) have unveiled its latest product viz 155mm 52 Cal Mounted Gun system at a function held at the ongoing DefExpo 2018 in Chennai. It was launched jointly by CMD, BEML Shri Deepak Kumar Hota and DGOF & Chairman OFB Shri S K Chourasia.

The uniqueness of this project is that it has been completely and independently designed and manufactured by OFB in association with BEML & BEL and is therefore a shining example of ‘Make in India’. The gun is equipped with the state-of-the-art laying and sighting system such as GPS aided INS, muzzle velocity feeder data management, day and night firing, ballasting computer system capability.

The base vehicle used for the gun system is the BEML-TATRA 8X8 truck with all differential lockable and a powerful 300 KW (402 HP) engine, which provides it a power to weight ratio of more than 10KW/ton. This is a high mobility vehicle with independent wheel suspension and swinging half axles to provide enhanced cross-country mobility. The vehicle has a cruising speed of 80 km/hr on road and more than 30 km/hr in cross-country and has a cruising range of 1000 km without refuelling.

The armament used in the 155 mm 52 Cal has a target destruction capability of approximately 42 kms. The Gun System combines with the advantage of high mobility performance of a truck with accurate long range fire power of a 155 mm 52 Cal gun and with its onboard ammunition storage capability of 18 rounds of HE shells as well as 18 BMCS and 2-6 chargers. It can be automatically deployed in any terrain and can perform a mission independently.

With its high strategic manoeuvrability in all types of terrain it will serve as an all weather reinforcement for the infantry and will be a present force multiplier for the Indian artillery.

Those are older TATA SE 1613. You don't see them a lot around now.
