Apache
15 Jun, 2015
The deal for the Apache is a 'a hybrid one', with one contract to be signed with Boeing for the helicopter and the other with the US government for its weapons, radars and electronic warfare suites.
The US has been pushing for this contract as it will further bolster American presence in the burgeoning defence market of India.

Russia's interest in Make in India
15 Jun, 2015
Meanwhile, Russia wants to manufacture 200 Kamov Ka 226 light helicopters in India. According to Russian Helicopters, the military version of light multi-mission helicopter Ka-226T is designed for operation in hard-to-reach highland conditions, warm climate and oversea, reconnaissance, targeting and monitoring, cargo transportation (up to 1,500 kg), transportation of 7 troopers or service personnel.
These helicopters are desperately needed to replace the ageing Cheetah fleet which services one of the world's highest military deployments on the Siachen glacier.

NEW DELHI: Ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to the US, the Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS) today cleared a multi-billion dollar deal for 22 Apache attack helicopters and 15 Chinook heavy-lift choppers with American aviation giant Boeing.
"The deal for Apache and Chinook (helicopters) has been cleared," government sources said.
The CCS met after a Cabinet meeting, they said.
Many in the defence sector had expected the deal, valued to be over $2.5 billion and pending since 2013 following finalisation of cost negotiations, to be signed during the visit of US Defence SecretaryAshton Carter in June this year.
The deal for Apache is "a hybrid one", with one contract to be signed with Boeing for the helicopter and the other with the US government for its weapons, radars and electronic warfare suites.
The US has been pushing for this contract as it will further bolster American presence in the burgeoning defence market of India.
American companies have over the last decade bagged defence contracts from India worth around USD 10 billion, including for aircraft like P-8I maritime surveillance planes, C-130J 'Super Hercules' and C-17 Globemaster-III in the transport category.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will leave for the US tomorrow to attend the UN General Assembly.
The helicopter deal had survived over 10 price extensions from the American side with the last one being for a month as desired by India.
The contract will have clauses to place follow-on orders for 11 more Apaches and four extra Chinooks.
Both platforms, which have been in combat in Afghanistan and Iraq, had beaten off competition from Russia, which had offered its Mi-28N Night Hunter and Mi-26 heavy-lift copters.
The 22 Apache AH 64D Longbow helicopters are one of the most advanced multi-role combat helicopters, featuring all-weather and night fighting features, ability to track upto 128 targets in less than a minute and engage with 16, besides stealth characteristics, advanced sensors and beyond visual range missiles.
India will also be acquiring Hellfire missiles and rockets.

Great.
apache longbows will help us a lot in anti armour ops.Whereas Chinook's will be useful for Special Forces ops inside Pakistan and China.
Weren't some Pakistanis like @Donatello and @That Guy claiming that the deal won't be signed?
