TASL presented the model of same howitzer in 2023.


"A spokesperson for TAD told Janes that the company developed the MGS to meet the requirements of the Indian Army under the Field Artillery Rationalisation Plan. The Indian Army seeks at least 814 MGSs under the plan.

According to TAD, the MGS comprises a 155 mm/52 calibre gun mounted on a Tata 8×8 high-mobility vehicle (HMV). The gun has a 360° traverse angle and an elevation arc of -3° to +72°."

360° traverse angle means same configuration as old denel defense collaboration howitzer shown in pic.

There is no point for Tata or Mahindra to invest in WHAP unless they are targeting export
Bcoz this nation is so pathetic it cant safeguard it's industry for interests and security

World would be laughing at us and our incompetent babus that we can export a system but cant procure it for ourselves as we have to give BJ to our amriki masters

I will hold on my judgement until the deal happens and Javelin is delivered. If import dalals have their way they will even import the shoes and clothes. Recently, a bureacrat was caught asking for a bribe from drone manufacterer who supplied drones to the army.

Defence accounts auditor ‘demands Rs 10 lakh bribe’ from drone firm to clear Rs 56 crore payment; 3 held

The CBI laid a trap and caught an employee of the accused defence supplier red-handed while accepting a bribe of Rs 8 lakh as the first instalment.

We already have imported Spike Anti-tank missile from Israel. Can't these morons adopt our systems even if they are lacking in some aspects until a better version is produced? We have already made NAG and Helina, can't they wait until remaining trails are over? What is the hurry to induct these systems now with dollars? Isn't there a more urgent acquisitions for army other than this?

Govt on UN Imported Generols have found convergence

UN Imported Generols for well i don't need to state it here everyone knows.

Govt to appease America via defense purchases.

If you recollected these Javelin and Stryker deelz came around the same time as the Pannu-Nijjer saga.

BEML babooze are also pushing Stryker since they will screwdriver it.

[MasterChief]

The situation for anti air and anti-armor missiles is absolutely pic related

For AAM you have Igla, Stinger, Starstreak( from al-Britaniya )
For Anti Armor you have Spike, Konkurs, Milan and now Javelin

Looks like all this is ghoos to Burger Bhaijaan to keep the F-404 flowing..

 

[Hawkeye]

Most likely this could be for a lesser calibre like 155/45 instead of 155/52..

It's most certainly a Drdo project. And no 45cal arty has been made by them. Easily they will optfor atleast a modified Atags or ALTGS, 52cal. I doubt Drdo will be using someone's else cannon.
