Masterstroke by DRDO, develops world's most lethal artillery gun, India can now target Lahore from Amritsar, it can travel..., Indian Army says...
New Delhi: The Bofors gun proved to be a game-changer for the Indian Army during the Kargil War. The Indian Army thrashed Pakistan's nefarious activities with the FH-77 howitzer, a 155 mm artillery gun from Bofors. However, over the years, the Bofors gun has become a thing of the past with the Indian Army adopting the Advanced Towed Artillery Gun System (ATAGS) as its new weapon.

Many global military powers, including the United States and China, also possess advanced artillery systems, but ATAGS is considered among the most advanced towed artillery guns in the world thanks to its range of up to 48 kilometers.

All you need to know about ATAGS:​

• ATAGS is a modern 155 mm/52-caliber howitzer
• The ATAGS is jointly developed by Bharat Forge and Tata Advanced Systems Limited.
• Its biggest strength lies in its long-range firing capability and pinpoint accuracy.
• It follows the 'fire and shift' tactic firing and then quickly changing position to avoid enemy counterattacks.
• The ATAGS (Advanced Towed Artillery Gun System) is so powerful that it can strike Lahore from Amritsar
• ATAGS can travel a distance between the two cities is roughly 50 kilometers.
• This modern Indian artillery has proven effective in all types of terrain, from the scorching deserts of Rajasthan to the icy heights of Siachen.

Here are some of the key features of ATAGS:​

• The most notable feature of the ATAGS (Advanced Towed Artillery Gun System) is its rapid deployment capability.
• ATAGS gun can be ready for firing in just 80 seconds
• In case of a threat, it can relocate within 85 seconds.
• It is mounted on an 8 8 high-mobility truck, which can travel at a speed of 90 km/h.
• It can launch 10 high-explosive shells in 2.5 minutes, or 5 shells in just 60 seconds.
• 85 percent of ATAGS' spare parts are made in India, making it almost entirely indigenous.
• While similar foreign artillery guns cost around 35 40 crore, the ATAGS costs only 15 crore.
• The DRDO began developing this gun in 2012, and now it is ready to be inducted into the Indian Army.
• In March 2025, the government approved a deal worth Rs 6,900 crore to procure 307 units of ATAGS.
• The first regiment (18 artillery guns) is expected to be delivered to the Army by February 2027.

is sab ki zarurat nahi hai. Muneera and his uniform gang is literally expanding DHA towards Indian border itself. Basic artillery rounds can level them.

I think that it must be in making. Guided Panaka's guidance system is similar to ex calibre's guidance system, which we have already made. Ramjet propelled round is in final stage of development by IIT Chennai. It will double the range of shelling to nearly 100 k.m. Guidance in this round means big savings. The targets which needs search like rockets ma be targeted with artillery rounds. Can anybody guess economics?
