China has deployed new artillery to Tibet following border clashes with India. The PCL-181 Howitzer is reportedly designed especially for rugged terrain and is “favoured in mountainous terrain because of the higher arc of the shells”. Additional reports state that China’s People’s Liberation Army “has stepped up drills for its border troops and conducted at least three exercises in the past two weeks in Tibet”.
