The cost of each gun, which also has electronic sites, is about `14 crore, much lower than the per unit cost of Bofors. Dhanush can travel through difficult terrains and target enemy targets during the day and night. These guns, with upgrades, have been deployed along the LAC in Ladakh. The old Bofors gun was 155 mm 39 calibre with a firing range of around 30 kms. Dhanush which fires up to 36 kms has around 877mm longer barrel. The system also has many more modern equipment and technology onboard helping in precise targeting with heavier ordnance.In addition, the artillery is in the process of inducting other 155 mm gun systems, including 300 Advanced Towed Artillery Gun System (ATAGS), 300 Mounted Gun Systems (MGS) and 400 Towed Gun System (TGS). The Army has inducted 100 155mm/52 calibre K9 Vajra-T guns for which a $720 million contract was signed in 2017.
