Don't want Indian Vaccines ?
Simply go to GAVI and say No , I'm sure they'll find plenty of other countries willing to take them .
Hell I'm surprised Pakistan even had to get involved with GAVI considering just how many vaccines China is producing and how many they're donating I thought their...
Hmm gotta make sure the replacement for the Mig is an indigenous plane then.... Oh wait it already is
What about the Cheetahs and Cheetaks.. Oh wait they're being replaced by an Indian item as well
Let me see what about the Bren guns and INSAS... Both of them are going to replaced by Indian...
The needs are being met.... The wants are not

As of today we're inducting Indian, Russian and French Jets
Building Turkish, Indian, French and Russian Naval designs
Buying American, Israeli and Indian drone, surveillance systems
Using Indian, Russian and American weapon...
I don't think so... The initial order was of 8 planes
The follow up as included in the original contract was of 4 planes (which are being delivered rn)
That batch of 12 has Indian equipment.
And then a couple of years back India signed another deal for 6 more planes, These ones after COMCASA...
naah let them think this is happening , Let them think whatever Sawnhey says as gospel . Let them think the IA is crumbling and that RSS is taking over .Maybe they'll see all this and underestimate the actual challenge facing them ......Either way makes no real difference to what the ground...

And who pray told you that we'll be using "standard " strike fit for maritime roles ? ..Just because the base platform is one doesn't mean each service will use the exact same variant set up with the same parameters , That's common sense ....Although maybe that's not common enough for posters...

1) France: 16 unarmed MQ-9 for $1.5 billion in 2013.
2) Italy: 4 MQ-9 for $330 million in 2008.

This is exactly the opposite of inter service rivalry , This is them finally cooperating and streamlining purchases under a single umbrella , This is the first tri service aquistion and made possible by the new CDS
Initially the IAF wanted precision strike capable armed predator drones , The...
Wow such expert and in depth analysis... You should really open a think-tank .
Although you might not find anyone willing to take you seriously when you spout thoughts like "congress is pro Russia " .
This is 2021 , Not 1971 , Congress under Rahul is firmly alligned with the US Democratic...
Pro US Author writes pro US article ...Wow what a shocker
For every Swamy who says to dump Russia and embrace SU there are several who claim the opposite , several who in the US FP community who say US will sanction India , several who say it won't ... Taking one of them as gospel and ignoring...

Yeah it seems you didn't understand the situation
Pakistan is fighting to defeat India's bid to get Basmati Rice registered as its own product in the EU and as such to strengthen their case the govt has made it a part of their recognized Property under the local GI act
The GI tag that the...
No.. The term fake license implies that the license was procured by cutting corners and skipping steps , Which is exactly what happened
No one really thinks people who had never seen a cockpit were allowed to fly but what is clear is that undertrained and under qualified people were allowed to...
Christ you have absolutely zero idea how aircraft acquistions and timelines work ..... When the Rafale was finalized and ordered the TEDBF wasn't even an idea and neither was MWF ,
