L&T, in association with Nexter Systems, will manufacture certain sub systems for CAESAR®, integrate the gun systems with the platform and provide support to the Artillery program for the Indian Army. L&T brings to the Consortium its track record of development of various weapon systems for Defence Research & Development Organisation and the Indian armed forces across Land, Naval and Air Defence applications.
