Why would one want to develop Artillery with range greater than that of MBRLs. As it is such high range artillery are sort of hybrids of MBRLs and Artillery. MBRLs are way more agile, have more impactful barrage, offer broad ranges, and modern MBRLs are very accurate. Is it the cost?

Tor mkm on a Tata truck. Was there a rfp for this system? The acceleration on the missile is phenomenal.

Does it mean that the system is already in India or were the Russians using Tata Chasis? And did the TOR destroy OSA AK missiles?
