Light guns for the Indian Army

Procurement of 140 air-mobile ultra-light howitzers for around Rs 2,900 crore has not been cleared since STK is the only contender in this project. The OFB-IMI project to set up an ordnance complex of five plants at Nalanda in Bihar to manufacture propellant charges for heavy calibre artillery ammunition for Bofors howitzers and other guns has also been held up.
