wtf!
How will they conclude the deal before end of this financial year if the price negotiation have not started yet

few points that stand out​

- There is no such thing as FARP, but there is an artillery profile 2017 written in around 2008.​

- there is no scoot in mountains. only dig in and shoot.
- terrain specific arty

for the rest of the points, might as well watch the full video.

Everything is fine but last I heard in saurav jha's session that atags performed and completed all trails in mountainous regions meeting all the requirements given by army but here he is saying atags can't perform i.e can't be transported easily on the roads of NE and ladakh frontier

since ATAGS is being ordered, we have to assume IA arty has figured it out the S.O.Ps.

If they were really sanguine, they would've ordered more than 307. If scooting is not an option to begin with since they'll dig into reverse slopes, the 18 tons of the ATAGS shouldn't matter. The 3 ton shedding bit is probably to delay the program even further for no reason other than attempting to get some ATHOS in through the smokescreen of "emergency procurement".

Why would they do that?

Ordering more would mean stabilising the production line for more economies of scale and faster upgrades - ALL WITHIN INDIA, safe from sanctions and foreign production issues due to foreign wars or whatever.

Why would anyone think of doing something so sensible?
