I think these offsets are a true game changer- as they have not fully been revealed yet we don't know what each side is offering but we can be sure both sides are offering some "juicy" offsets in this highly competitive and lucrative deal. Boeing recently announced its offset for the C-17 deal- a $500 million USD high altitude test facility, this is a real game changer as India has lacked this capability uptil now and so the Kaveri has had tomb sent to Russia for these tests.
Exactly, and with rife rumours of taking the optional aircraft too, its going to be a mighty $ 10 billion!
Offsetting requirements have added a new dimension to the arms deals, of today. Its no more a seller-wins-it-all, but a balanced two-way win-win.
