Which artillery Gun of Indian Army has come under criticism for use of Chinese components?
Answer: A
The gun criticised was the Dhanush.
Dhanush is a 155 mm towed howitzer developed by the Ordnance Factory Board, based on the Bofors design. In 2017 the CBI registered a case after it emerged that a part (wire race rollers) supplied as German-made had in fact been made in China, raising questions about components used in the gun.
The Bofors FH-77B is the Swedish gun of the 1980s. The AK-47 is a rifle, not artillery. The M-777 is a light howitzer bought from the USA and BAE Systems, and was not the subject of this complaint.
