Looking at all this, especially reviews of 101 agreements part, it appears BD politicians are playing proper politics blaming bad things on India while taking credits on their achievements. Unfortunately there is no Awami League to blame. Jamaats have never ruled the nation.
Indian nation always...
Too late. Not sure what prevented the IN to go for 14 P17 at the same time. Program would have been atleast Billion or more cheaper with next 7 ships delivered within the next 3 years. Only support ships are to be delivered in the next 5 years minus S5*.
TASL should have been given complete orders so through orders of scale they are competitive in exports & more cheaper to supply to IA & maintainance. Not as if NIBE is Indian design.
In some cases its good to have alternate supply & in some its not.
No need to compare. We need 10% growth. Give tax breaks to industries having base in india who invests in manufacturing. While electronics & semis manufacturing is concentrated, enclosures, mechanical panels etc are still inported, with our huge steel capacity we have the capacity to export lot...
I prefer the C390 as well. But it is on the hands on the decision makers. Embraer presents the best chance for Indian industry to indigenize & build over them. Even C295 doesnt give that opportunity.
JV with Embraer should be also good opportunity for India to leapfrog, with civilian aircraft...
I mentioned the capacity of all 4 SSBN or INs strategic weapons capability. Not for Arisudan.
I am not sure regarding commissioning cos after INS Arihant & Aridhaman other subs commissioning went quite faster.
Even India Defence media who runs circles around propspective orders, this news have taken everyone by surprise. It is a good replacement for Russian missiles. India has 250-300 in service with overall orders being 650 Mk1. Mk2 will ordered soon & Mk3 test firing is done. They were also deployed...
Impressive. IN will have 23 Frigates by end of 2028. And except 3, every frigate avg life would be less than 10 years.
On Destroyers front, we have less no than S Korea & Japan.
Got confirmed today by Indonesian MoD for the first time. Final sign expected in 2-3 months. Follow on offer for Philippines expected in the next 1-2 years.
