The tender is for the production of 110 30mm naval guns for $400 million for the Indian Navy
India has issued a global tender for the production of 110 30mm naval guns for $400 million. The tender has been sent to Israeli companies Elbit Systems and Rafael, as well as to Samsung Techwin, BAE Systems and EM Digital.
Italian company Oto Melara will not be permitted to participate in the tender because of an ongoing probe into charges of corruption against its parent company Finmeccanica, it was reported on defensenews.
Unlike the previous tender issued back in 2013, which was hasn't been carried out because of a demand to produce the gun barrel in India, this requirement was omitted from the current tender. The tender also includes electro-optical fire control systems (EOFCS) for the guns along with ammunition. The ammunition will be produced by India's state-owned Ordnance Factory Board.
Elbit Systems and Rafael Will Compete for India's Naval Gun Tender
