I certainly hope so. But its still far too expensive for a Made in India product. It should not cost more than 3-5 crores if Ordinance factory is making it.
3-5 crores wont be possible..!!
First you have to take into account the barrel itself....the older calibre barrel was replaced with a new higher calibre barrel
The FH-77B had 39 cal. barrel but Dhanush features an upgunned 45 cal. barrel
Range has gone up from 27km to 38km...
Then comes the Fire Control System...the Sights and Recoil mechanisms as welll
Almost all analog systems have been replaced with digital computerised systems......sights are not manual anymore... new digital electro-optic sights have been introduced ..
Its not just a rip off....its a heavily upgraded variant with host of new technologies...
And as pointed out the deal includes gun ring kits n associated accesories....
