Remember I had estimated M777 barrel ilfe around 1100 rounds ?
BAE was adamant that IA testing caused the barrel burst when it was the barrel erosion.
IA needs to ensure enough barrels before deploying.
Fastrack the 155mm 39 caliber barrel mfg.

Re: Military Vehicles: News & Discussion
I wish DRDO and the truck manufactures make an armored cabin which is plug in replaceable. All that glass is bullet friendly.
Makes two types of cabin : one for Ashok Leyland and another for Tata trucks.
All should have armor to resist small arms fire and a roof mounting for an MG.
