- It is being jointly developed by the DRDO and the private sector.
- The development is being done through a consortium based model, similar to that adopted for the Pinaka multi-barrel rocket launch system.
- The Army has not inducted any new artillery gun since the Bofors in the 1980's.
- Last year, India signed a contract for 145 M-777 Ultra-Light Howitzers from the US.
