Pakistan's Artillery Upgrade Discussions

[Raja Porus]

Correct, my bad. Just thought “South African howitzer” and G6 was the first one to come to mind.

Is it same weapon system which was first showcased in Ideas in 2016?

Yes, and it was the front runner for the PA wheeled artillery procurement competition before the SH15 was given more interest I believe.

I thought we got sh15s? Did that turn out to be false or is testing still going on?

Even if we induct them we may never announce them. Or announce them after months or year.

Yes our policies of telling about new inductions have changed in the past few yeas , but the 2nd phase of trials is indeed happening , with SH15 , T5 & Nora B52 and others taking part in it but so far none has been selected for production.

Trials were completed long ago

Another reason for new trials is because PA has changed some of the requirements , added some new ones that it wants to be present on its howitzers.

I asked him earlier, you can see the response :p

Apparently a fully automated loading system and remote firing capabilities.
