**Combines High Mobility, All Weather Reinforcement With Accurate Long

(OFB and BEML have unveiled its latest product : The 155mm 52 Cal Mounted Gun system at a
function held at the ongoing DEFEXPO 2018 at Chennai jointly by Shri Deepak Kumar Hota,
CMD, BEML Limited & Shri S K Chourasia, DGOF & Chairman OFB.
The uniqueness of this project is that it has been completely and independently designed and
manufactured by OFB in association with BEML & BEL and is therefore a shining example of
‘MAKE IN INDIA’ ~ The Theme of DEFEXPO'18. The Gun is equipped with the state-of-the-art
laying system and sighting system such as GPS aided INS, muzzle velocity feeder data
management, day and night firing, ballasting computer system capability.
The base vehicle used for the gun system is the BEML-TATRA 8X8 truck with all differential
lockable and a powerful 300kW engine, which provides it a power to weight ratio of more than
10KW/ton. This is a high mobility vehicle with independent wheel suspension and swinging half
axles to provided enhanced cross-country mobility.
‘The vehicle has a cruising speed of 80Km/hr on-road and more than 30Km/hr in cross-courtry
and has a cruising range of 1000Km without refueling.
The armament used in the 155mm 52Cal with target equipment capability of approximate
42kms. The Gun System combines with the advantage of high mobility performance of a truck
with accurate long range fire power of a 155mm 52 Cal Gun and with its onboard ammunition
storage capability of 18 rounds of HE shells as well as 18 BMCS and 2-6 chargers. It can be
automatically deployed in any terrain and can perform a mission independently.
With its high strategic maneuverability in all types of terrain it will serve as all weather
reinforcement for the infantry and will be a present force multiplier for the Indian Artillery.
