Top Artillery General Provides Insight Into Firepower’s Predominance In Battle

The man behind the machine retains his pre-eminence. The interaction started with recruit training in Training centres. A shorter recruit training cycle, with Agnipath in place now, poses new challenges. The Regiment of Artillery has reorganised training at the centres, modernised the infrastructure, inducted simulators, increased sports and recreational facilities. The feedback from the
Artillery units is positive.
Similarly, the School of Artillery where officers and senior NCOs and JCOs and JCOs are trained, modernisation has been pursued to keep pace with time.
The General Officer gave an estimate of quantum of guns that we will need to induct to switch entirely to 155 mm calibre of various types.
In Ukraine, American HIMARS seems to have become a decisive weapon system. Our Rocket artillery is also being modernising to achieve far longer a reach.
The lessons of Ukraine and Gaza wars are being studied. The new artillery philosophy takes into account the protracted length of wars and caters for industrial upgrade not just for quality but quantum of ammunition that needs to guide us in evolving a surge capacity for future conflicts.
DG Arty’s message to the Gunner fraternity, both serving and retired, was given out by the General.

They are aiming 2042 for modernization, now only have 75 km range, whereas World is pursuing 300+km rockets. Very slow progress, In case of War, panic buying will happen 🙏

[@rajeenaidoo4959]

Don't worry about the artillery, worry about your porous borders where the Bangladeshis are crossing and changing the statusquo .

[@lordpochinki2112]

He is a soldier, not Shashi Tharoor...
He has conveyed his message logically and comprehensively. What else do u expect?

[@JohnDoe-ty6pv]

@@Kiran-l5y6v Minimum expectation is to have a sense of purpose when a leader communicates; Especially true for a soldier. He is a gap filler at best, a waste of 40 years at worst.
