India to get access to almost 99% of US defence technologies, says Obama administration official

US weapons are not cheap and the baggage that comes with a purchase of weapon plateforms from the US cannot be ignored. It would be in India's interest to diversify our weapon purchase as a mix of the products of all the international suppliers. While startegic purchase should be made from Russia, France and Israel with TOT along with an effort of indigenous development of all the required tech. over the period of time buy the other important assets from the US.
its a trade and we have no choice as china even if we agree with all its demands will work against our interests so we have to keep it in check and the best way is to form a allince with USA there is no other choice its like a trade if we want to make ourself strong due to a unrelenting and ever agressive enemy we have to let it know we are no push over either and buy and get the best techs from whrere ever they come later we in due course can take our skills and tech to level of US and then go like we want

You obviously seem to be in a conflict with yourself, for we all know how you people were willing to offer it on a platter when US was invading Afghanistan and whatever the Pak/China relation may hold, you certainly don't mind them sit on your face at will, so please leave your high Horse behind the gate.
last i remember.. GoI rejected proposal from US govt to send troops to Afghanistan on its WoT.. and in those period US were sending you billions of free aid for its WoT.. so dont BS jst for sake of it
 
.
So no TOT for
F-22
F-35
F-15
Growler
B-52
B-2
SSNs, SSBNs,SSGNs
CVN tech
Abrams
And the list goes on and on, surprising how much can be fit in one percent with just empty promises
Forgot javelin?they won't even sell theirs night vision gadgets let alone the techs.

For india.. we should grab this chance with both hands.. get high end toys and absorb as much technology as possible from US.. because you never know when climate changes..

Wondering what will be in that 1% o_Oo_Oo_O
 
. . . . . . .
its a trade and we have no choice

Yes, you do!

Enter a defense cooperation with America regarding China but ...
keep reforming your armament sector towards greater autonomy.

You don't have to buy their kit to cooperate*, Americans are pragmatic.
They'll take the mil help and still sell you good kit purely for profit!

Only if they sell at a loss, should you worry, young Jedi! :whistle:

All you need are shared comms; the forces will manage fighting together.*

Have a good day, Tay.

* France is an example of both. We source mostly in house & have no
problems joining India in Garudas exercises and yet are still US allies.

1% is not for sale for the whole world and 99% is for sale for all minus RUSSIA CHINA
what Important is $ and India uses more than 55 percent of its allocated funds to cover salaries, leaving it with less than 45 percent to buy weapons, a senior Army official said, speaking on condition of anonymity So don't be stupid Its just a cash n carry.
