    This might be a good opportunity to shift away from conventional artillery towards fully guided and more mobile systems like HIMARS.

      Anyone who has followed this conflict closely can see alarming gaps in the Forces’ equipment. The lack of systems like self-propelled guns, rocket artillery, and weaponised drones / loitering munitions would put our troops in a seriously bad position if push came to shove.
