Dont believe in india media reports - mainly propaganda to buy more weapons.

If PA has the option / opportunity they would prefer additional M109A5s.

India has the truck Chassis based G5? with TOT being produced. G6 we should be able to acquire and stick a middle finger at uncle sam unless India sabotages the deal.

no india doesnt... the denel gun was offered to india .. (denel was also blacklisted-- for offering kickbacks)..

I cant confirm the upgrade, only know the China is capable of doing that, India has upgraded a large number of his M-46 130mm Artillery inventory, so why not Pakistan. But for that you should better ask @Xeric, hes is a expert in Artillery !


The M-46 original soviet name, was sold to China, from where Pakistan did buy the Type-59 130mm and Type-59-1 (upgraded and lighter Variant).


Here is picture, it was the main Gun during the Kargil war with India and the main used Artillery gun against Taliban by Pakistan Army:

Upto 40 have been inducted according to some sources

I think that's according to SIPRI which isn't very reliable. If MODP year book says so then it would be a confirmed case.

What is the latest news about upgrading artillery units currently in possession of 130mm guns to M-109 Howitzer? Because I have heard that they are being de-commissioned.

Sir, what about replacement of the obsolete M-46 (130mm) guns with the new M-109A2/A5?
