Indian Army Artillery

[Longewala]

20? Does an Indian SPG regiment have 20 SPGs instead of the standard 18 howitzers per regiment in the rest of the Artillery?

Two spares?

Since we have drones as arty spotters why aren't we buying/ making Krasnopol rounds in huge numbers and equipping the drones with laser designators?

We are making something better then that.

What guided artillery?

 

[Chinmoy]

What guided artillery?

Yep. Guided fuse artillery. Basically a kit to change every dumb shell into a guided one.

Yup but they have less accuracy than excalibur type shells.

 

[Chinmoy]

Yup but they have less accuracy than excalibur type shells.

And three times cheaper too.

They were also developing a improved 155 mm artillery shell any idea about that.

Yes. Study being done. But it is just a improvement over the existing shell regarding its performance under different environmental conditions.

Question here ain't about price , Athos fast delivery questions here is how can it be inducted (which is very likely) without proper trails like ATAGS . Now if army says it will induct and while it is inducted trails will be done that's really discrimination

What discrimination ?

Trials were conducted bids were made and it won over French Nexter. Infact its guidance system is considered superior and pretty accurate in comparison to others.

This guy still doesn't make any sense watch his video first things to notice Drdo said it's gonna deliver ATAGS after 18 monthes after orders given while the trials are going on . This guys says we need Athos now coz of conflict with chindi my question how come you induct an artillery without any proper trials warna ATAGS ki testing ke bina hi induct kar lete open me dalali kar raha hai ye in the end he just wanna say that induct Athos point here both Athos and ATAGS can be made by private player Kalyani,Tata drdo with check the quality as said by drdo itself

Both ATHOS and Bharat 52 will be made by Kalyani Group.

He is psycho

We should instead listen to pakistani dallas acc to whom we should wait a few years for DRDO to resolve the issue of ATAGS and then pay more money to induct it and then pay even more to operate it. And then in another 12-15 years production might be completed or we will hear another excuse.

Meanwhile Chinese will wait for us.

Your arguments appear biased.Like Rajdeep Sardesai /Sagarika Ghose who claims to be a journalist without prejudice, but their opinions lean towards one side only. This money is our money and it should flow back into the Indian Economy as far as possible.

No need to get hyper. The tests of Nexter, ATHOS, Archer had first occurred from 2002 to 2007. But in 2007 this RFP has been cancelled as every one of these guns failed in the GSQR parameters.
2008, RFP again got released, but apart from Elbit, no one else were able to stand it and again in 2010 the RFP got cancelled due to single vendor situation.
2011 again fresh RFP got issued and again a series of test happened.
2013 Elbit formed a JV with BF to push ATHOS in Indian market and in 2014 DRDO pushed the procurement plan further with ATAGS.

So ATHOS is a well tested platform in Indian condition.

Meaning we should encourage and build our own defense products. Not always looking for best as a reason to import. Navy is doing well for a time, IAF is improving but Army still majorly looks for imported arms. And you are promoting it.

Meaning ? Encourage ? Our products ?

Both Indian guns are direct or indirect derivative of TOT from foreign manufacturers we will be getting the same with ATHOS .

Meaning when we pay it will be our product .

Enemy won't wait at the border because you want to encourage someone.

TOT is a myth.

TOT is a myth.

Myth ? Where did you get this line from ?

Dhanush is built up from TOT of Bofors.

Bharat 52 is also built from TOT which was obtained by acquisition of the company itself.
