<h1>Legal and regulatory challenges when scaling domestic artillery-shell forging, including export controls, procurement rules, intellectual property, safety, environment</h1> A government-backed push to scale domestic artillery-shell forging highlights legal and regulatory issues for defence manufacturing, including export controls, licensing and public-private procurement frameworks, product safety and quality standards, and compliance with international arms-transfer rules. Rapid modernization through automation, Industry 4.0 adoption and workforce training raises procurement-contract, intellectual property and technology-transfer considerations. Elevated export potential and cost-competitive pricing implicate trade law, export licensing, and state procurement policies, while sustainability and scaling targets necessitate environmental permits and labor-regulation compliance as production capacity expands.
