Good to know BD chose Boran over other options.
@Isa Khan you previously suspected it. But I swear I wasn't lying when i said suppliers countries in the previous tender was only UK and Italy.
But now this one is definitely a new tender or direct G2G deal. Looks like we ditched our old suppliers in favour of Turkey.
if we buy 1 regiment initially and it performs well, I think Army will standardise Boran for infantry in the near future as a replacement for all of our old 105mm guns. (we have around 200 of those) And it would be even better if we can get a license production.
And I do believe there is a good chance for this to happen.
Specially, if we consider it in light of 2021 deal to open more modern production line for 105 mm and new production line for 155 mm artillery shells with Free Flowforming technology and computerized machinery from Turkish company REPKON.

This little beast would be particularly helpful in our mountainous South Eastern border with Myanmar as it is very light and easily portable. (Along with TB-2 and other tactical UAV/UACVs it would be a deadly combination.)
