Manohar Parikkar clears proposal to acquire 814 artillery guns for Rs.15,750 crore Defence minister Manohar Parrikar on Saturday cleared a proposal to acquire 814 artillery guns for Rs.15,750 crore, while deferring a decision on joint bid by Tata Sons Ltd and Airbus to replace the Indian Air Force’s Avro transport fleet and also the procurement of 106 Swiss Pilatus basic trainer aircraft. The artillery guns would be procured as per the “buy and make” procedure introduced last year under which 100 such guns would be bought off the shelf while 714 would be made in India.
