Any idea about the turrent ???

They changed the turret again ,first they used mk 44 bushmaster ,then they used the BMP 2 turret . I think this could be modified version of hitfist 30 mm or it could be their own system

Well, 105mm is being considered a light field gun. There's always use for a lighter gun.
It's up to the Army in the end.

Maybe in the mountains and the Himalayas but I guess not in the plains,I think we can standardize
