For the first time in three decades, the Indian Army received two new artillery guns today. The M-777 ultra-light howitzer guns are part of India's 145-gun order from the US for 700 million dollars. This is the first induction of howitzers after the Bofors scandal broke out nearly 30 years ago. Allegations of kickbacks in that deal had a vast impact on defence purchases since then.
