Frequently Asked Questions
ATAGS stands for Advanced Towed Artillery Gun System, an Indian 155mm 52 calibre towed howitzer developed with an all electric drive. Being a towed gun, it is moved to the firing position by a towing vehicle rather than driving itself like a self propelled system.
The gun was developed in India by a national research laboratory working with industry partners, and this listing associates it with Kalyani Strategic Systems as the company. More than one Indian manufacturer has been involved in building prototypes of the system.
