Since India is an enemy of China and Pakistan will the B. Hussein Obama Administration approve the sale?

At almost 4 million dollars per gun it seems a little pricey.

At almost 4 million dollars per gun it seems a little pricey. You can talk 'em down if you shop at the end of the model year.

155mm, lightweight, digital fire control and a shot every 12 seconds is the selling point.

This ain’t your Granddaddy’s Howitzer.
Not all the hydraulics, and the electronic targeting system on the left.

The real question is why does India feel they need these.

Walmart has them as a “Mother’s Day Special” at $3.65mil, includes gift box and card. Can’t beat that!

A electronically-controlled hydraulic reset that repositions the gun after every shot, and can put a shell within a 5-meter circle, 15 miles downrange, every-12-15 seconds, for as long as you want to keep shooting.
WORTH EVERY PENNY....

A good question.
With a nest of insane mohammedan vipers on their doorstep and over the horizon to the northwest and angry expansionist commies off to the northeast, they are in a particularly precarious position.
Personally, I would want a large fleet of nuclear armed submarines to back up the popguns when things inevitably go bad.

Not me. I prefer the mule-drawn French 75. I learned to ire one as an avalanche buster. Vive la France!
