Yeah i think IA too upgraded 200 odd 130 mm guns from israelis,but these guns themselves are very old designs and lack modern features of towed guns like Electronic FCS,crane,autoloader etc.Even bofors and m198 which are the most advnaced towed guns in respective armies lack these features.All these towed guns in the subcontinent are a generation behind modern guns currently in use.
by the way
"The lightweight Russian-designed M-46, which had been in service
with the Indian Army for decades, once again proved its worth on the battlefield. Its
ability to fire rapidly at low angles made it an indispensable source of close range fire
support, and harkened back to the German mountain guns that devastated Greek defenses
with direct fire during the Second World War"
