If the world all goes to hell, I think China will not fare well.

Howitzers are a key weapon in mountain warfare, esp. with the Red Chinese using human wave attacks as they did against India in the past.

Now, if they use Flechettes in their shells, it will be “Fed the Vultures” times in the Himalayas.

The ones the US uses are assembled in Mississippi with key parts made in England. It looks like India will follow that model with final assembly of most of the guns there.

Quibbling I know, but are these not properly referred to as artillery “pieces’?

That works out to 1.2 million per Howitzer which seems a bit too much unless there is a bribe factored in the deal.
