There are innumerable books on the valour of our armed forces but this is different; it contains imperishable personal experiences in battles fought by us since 1914 and highlights the importance of weapons. We are capable of producing high-tech missiles like Brahmos, yet failure to manufacture even trainer aircraft, results in our air force pilots being sent to UK for training in the 58th year of our Independence! Ordnance Factories claim that their 155-mm guns exhibits at Abu Dhabi were acclaimed. Then why the ongoing trails of Swedish, South African and Israeli 155-mm guns? Is it due to the cliché{u2019} 2It{u2019}s cheaper to import than to manufacture3 ! or because the decision-makers don{u2019}t know Lancaster{u2019}s Law. The author highlights instances of poor planning and suggests ways for development and production of weapons at affordable costs--Jacket.
