'Destroyer on Wheels': India develops a truck-mounted Howitzer gun that can move at 90kmph and fire six rounds per minute
A new mounted artillery gun system has been developed to support Indian Army operations in areas where traditional towed guns cannot be deployed, according to Ramamohana Rao, Director of the Vehicles Research and Development Establishment ( VRDE ). The system integrates the Advanced Towed Artillery Gun System (ATAGS) onto an 8x8 high-mobility truck and is designed to offer quick deployment and withdrawal, a feature that has gained relevance in modern warfare scenarios. Quick deployment and 'shoot and scoot' capability Rao said the system can be deployed within 80 seconds and moved from the firing location in 85 seconds, helping it avoid enemy counter-battery fire. 'Shoot and scoot' is a tactical feature that was prominently seen during the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Key technical features The mounted system weighs 30 tonnes and is capable of achieving speeds up to 90 km/h. It is equipped with a bulletproof cabin to protect the six-member crew from enemy fire and blast pressure. The 155mm, 52-calibre gun can fire six rounds per minute and has a maximum range of 45 kilometres, with a target impact area of up to 50 square metres. The gun has been built to meet the General Staff Qualitative Requirements (GSQR) issued by the Indian Army in 2022. 'The gun that we have produced will cost around ₹15 crore, compared to foreign systems which cost between ₹35 and ₹40 crore,' said Rao. Bharat Forge is the manufacturing partner under the Development-cum-Production Partner ( DCPP ) model. Designed for difficult terrain The new artillery platform is capable of navigating slushy and rough terrains and can operate on gradients up to 20%. Rao said this makes it suitable for deployment along the northeastern, eastern, and western borders of India. It also has an elevation range of 70 degrees and a 30-degree azimuth, offering a wide range of targeting angles. Live Events Focus on indigenous production The first prototype of the system has 85% indigenous content. Rao said production versions are expected to increase this to 95%, aligning with India's push for domestic defence manufacturing. Army's projected need According to reports, the Indian Army has a projected requirement of 814 mounted gun systems to expand its artillery strength across diverse terrains. The newly developed system is expected to be a major option to meet that requirement.

ATAGS: The made-in-India artillery gun system that can be deployed in all terrains
The Indian Army will test the indigenous Advanced Towed Artillery Gun System (ATAGS). This 155mm/52 calibre gun, which has a range of up to 48 km, can be deployed in just 85 seconds. Here's how it could be a game-changer for India's defence read more DRDO's Advance Towed Artillery Gun System (ATAGS) being displayed at Rajpath during a rehearsal for the Republic Day parade in New Delhi in 2017. File Photo/PTI The Indian Army is set to test a homegrown howitzer, which it calls the Advanced Towed Artillery Gun System (ATAGS). This 155mm/52 calibre truck-mounted mobile artillery gun can be deployed on all terrains – from the deserts of Rajasthan to Siachen's icy heights. In March, the Ministry of Defence had signed contracts with Bharat Forge Limited and Tata Advanced Systems Limited (TASL) for procuring ATAGS and high‐mobility 6×6 gun towing vehicles for Rs 6,900 crore. The artillery gun will be a game-changer for India's defence. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Let's take a closer look. The Advanced Towed Artillery Gun System (ATAGS) has a range of over 45 kilometres. It boasts higher accuracy, consistency of operations, superior firing, and operates in all-weather conditions. The long-range howitzer has been indigenously designed and developed by the Armament Research and Development Establishment (ARDE), the Pune-based laboratory of the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), in collaboration with Bharat Forge and TASL. The upper carriage of the gun system packs the gun barrel, breech and muzzle brake, recoil system, cradle, saddle, elevating and traversing mechanism, layer station, loader station and ammunition handling system. The undercarriage contains structural, automotive, and auxiliary systems. 'The system is configured with an all-electric drive to ensure maintenance-free and reliable field operations,' the DRDO said in its bulletin. It is equipped with automatic gun laying, shell and charge loading, ramming and gun deployment. #WATCH | Pune, Maharashtra: Director, ARDE, A. Raju says, "The Advanced Towed Artillery Gun System (ATAGS), which is designed and developed by ARDE, Pune. This is one of the best systems in the world, which the DRDO has developed. Its max range is 48 km and has special features… — ANI (@ANI) July 7, 2025 The ATAGS, which can be deployed in 85 seconds, is compatible with firing existing shells with the Indian Army as well as integrates seamlessly with its Artillery Combat Command and Control System (ACCCS). The ATAGS can fire 10 high-explosive shells at a target in just 2.5 minutes, or five rounds in 60 seconds in burst fire mode. It has a range of up to 48 km, depending on the type of ammunition. The ATAGS comes with self-propulsion capability, which is attained through an auxiliary power unit (APU) comprising an automotive system, hydraulic transmission, and actuation mechanisms. ATAGS is a big boost for India's goal to advance its artillery modernisation. 'The first gun system is ready for the mandatory first of product model test. The first regiment of 18 ATAGS will be inducted within a year thereafter,' RP Pandey, Project Director (PD) of ATAGS, told The New Indian Express. The indigenous gun system is set to replace older, smaller calibre guns and give a fillip to the Indian Army's artillery capabilities. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'ATAGS, renowned for its exceptional lethality, will play a crucial role in bolstering the Army's firepower by enabling precise and long-range strikes," the defence ministry said. ATAGS, @DRDO_India's flagship artillery system, is spearheading the #IndianArmy's artillery modernisation—an exemplary Mission Mode success. It brings together #DRDO, the Indian Army, and both public and private sectors to strengthen #AatmanirbharBharat in defence. With its… — Ministry of Defence, Government of India (@SpokespersonMoD) July 9, 2025 The mounted gun system (MGS), a cross-country truck-mounted heavy artillery system, is based on ATAGS. Artillery systems can strike deep into the enemy territory. However, after firing, their positions can be revealed. Mobility offers these systems the ability to fire and relocate quickly. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Bharat Kushwaha, Design Leader of the MGS project, told The New Indian Express that 'high-mobility artillery was a technology gap which needed to be addressed. The Mounted Gun System (MGS) was a viable solution.' During Operation Sindoor, the Indian Army deployed artillery to destroy Pakistani bunkers and posts along the Line of Control (LoC). India's artillery boost is also fuelled by the Pinaka multi-barrel rocket system. Its range has increased from 40 km to 72 km, with plans to further enhance it to 90 km. The Army is also looking to grow its fleet of 155mm/52 calibre K9 Vajra-T self-propelled tracked artillery guns. Hundred more Vajra units will be added to the fleet by the end of 2025, joining the 100 already deployed in places like Ladakh. With inputs from agencies

Army's first regiment of long-range ATAGS artillery guns to be ready by February 2027
PUNE/AHMEDNAGAR: The Indian Army's plan to induct long-range indigenous artillery systems are in advanced stages, with the Advanced Towed Artillery Gun System (ATAGS) ready for its first product model test, while the Mounted Gun System (MGS) technology demonstrator is awaiting trial. 'The first gun system is ready for the mandatory first of product model test. The first regiment of 18 ATAGS will be inducted within a year thereafter,' said RP Pandey, Project Director (PD) of ATAGS, speaking to The New Indian Express. The gun has a proven range of over 45 kilometres and can be deployed in 85 seconds, Pandey said at the DRDO's Armament Research and Development Establishment (ARDE) in Pune. He added that the gun can be deployed in 90 seconds and has been tested up to a range of 48 kilometres. Its wider arc of fire enables more destructive capabilities. The procurement of this system marks a significant milestone in the modernisation of the Army's artillery regiments and is expected to enhance operational readiness. In March, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) signed contracts for the procurement of 307 ATAGS 155mm/52 calibre guns and 327 high-mobility 6x6 gun towing vehicles, at a cost of around ₹6,900 crore. The ATAGS and towing vehicles will be procured from Bharat Forge Limited and Tata Advanced Systems Limited, respectively. The ATAGS will replace older, smaller calibre guns and enhance the Indian Army's artillery capabilities. The ministry said, 'ATAGS, renowned for its exceptional lethality, will play a crucial role in bolstering the Army's firepower by enabling precise and long-range strikes.'
