These days,the "Mountain Guns" are delivered by helicopter, not dragged up the hill.
What India wants is something like the US M777 that is light enough to be slung under a helicopter, or V-22 Osprey.

I agree that India would love to get their hands on the triple 7, but I don’t think the State Department would approve of that sale, with the Hindu-Kush up for grabs.
