Do we have any AN/TPQ-36 Firefinder radars or its equivalents? Experts please enlighten. We didnt have it during Kargil and missed it badly then.

Theres a disparity in numbers and quality. We have higher number of guns, and a larger proportion are of bigger calibers (155,130).
there is relative parity in medium artillery with our 1600 pieces ( 130,155) against their 1250 ( 155,130)
This is a cause of concern .
We only hold an edge over them in Light artillery ( 120mm mortars ) and Field artillery ( 105mm )

If so, this is an effin disgrace! A nincompoop holding parity against one of the biggest economies/armies in the world.

After 3-4 years you will see Pakistan will have more no of artillery than India and will have edge upon us
Although they are Chinese but still good for them by looking at their speed and will of their purchase
They are purchasing like a mad person to maintain edge over us in next 7-8 year their would been few fields with them having upper hand and most others enough to counter us except Navy if if if if they don't get 8 subs from China but if they start getting it naakme dam karke rakhenge

Plus we have to deploy a lot of these on LAC, which is more than what they have to deploy on their western front. Right?
nah , deploying 600 medium guns along LAC is more than enough as there aren't many friction points there plus the terrain limits any major offensive by either side. These guns have to concentrated in vanatage points and i am happy to say that we have parity with the chinese on LAC in terms of artillery both field and medium. All thanks to the mighty himalayas the chinese can't deploy or concentrate all of their firepower at us even if they want to .

Will just 114 dhanush satisfy our need bcoz atags is nowhere near signing and for k-9 army is waiting for defexpo
I don't understand if they were going to place orders in defexpo then why did they postponed their requirement with expo
Is it necessary to place orders in expo
