Re: Indian Missiles News and Discussions - May 2017
You are unnecessarily creating a false proposition! DRDO only said it is developing 300 km SAM as well as 300 km AAM. When officials like Chander spoke the range was mentioned as 250 km for SAM. 150 km doesn't arise on the horizon. If you see in S400, bulk of their activity is carried out by 250 km...

Re: Artillery Discussion Thread
Those nos are for total towed artillery, i think. Not merely for ATAGS.
These nos reflect approved/sanctioned figures but actual requirement may go up a few times more, that's why Tata SED is in rejoicing mood.
Same goes for anti tank missile.
