What diplomatic rift ,
when India was purchasing weapons
a) Transport planes
b) Submarine hunters
c) Anti ship weapons
d) Missiles
e) AWACs
f) Rafale
g) Nuclear deal , nuclear fuel secrets
Did Russia cause a "RIFT" no russians simply observed and remained quiet
So what is the problem with Banya mentality ?
Hum Khain to Halwal , tum khao to Haram !!!
Meanwhile when Russia , bought a Helicopter carriers , it was sanctioned !!! Why did India not return all the weapons it had
Because no sane person will put everything in One basket...
A) As for transport plane.. we're co-developing one with Russia
B) Russia doesn't have anything new to offer
C) Main anti-ship missile in our inventory are Russians niw all are being replaced with Brahmos which is co-developed with Russians
D) Which missiles?? if you're talking about for the fighters then we've the russian ones on the russian platform.. other missiles are developed by DRDO and for western fighter we've western missiles. they don't allow russian ones
E) Awac's platform is Russian
F) Their fighter plane failed in the evaluation
G) Russians top in Nuclear deal with us than US.. we alowed US to get the pressure off of for not signing NPT
i didn't get the bold part.. can you explain???
and you'll give that contract to who US or France or EU as we all know its either Europe or US and both know that if you leave Russia you won't have an 2nd option like you did with RAFALE although you still got screwed by the French...
What are the 2nd option do Russians have if they want to loose the Indian Market??? Tell me how did France screw us??
NOW just imagine what will happen if you totally rely on them by leaving Russia because they know you need those capabilities like hell because your trying to match China they will make you guys there puppets which they wanted to do for a long time a puppet in Asia...
Nobody is relying on the west.. I told India will give the deal to EU countries to remind we mean business. there are many other deals to be given to russia, they're not fools to let us go completely, if we're off then Russians Economy is comletly Screwed not the other way around
Face the facts first and then post about you having upper hand in INDO-Russia relationship i have read alot of comments like that over here and can't bear it any more but still if you guys have counter arguments please put it forward TY
No the problem is you're seeing this from one side....
Russians are just reminding that they have another option which is very poor... Again Pakistani market never take the place of Indian one. And we have option and we know how to play on that.... we don't buy weapons from a single vender and fall prey to them... but Russia doesn't have that luxury. we're their top import partner they can never afford to loose us. all thsi su-35 is pressure tactics the same way they did in end of 90's.. we wne to French market then they started to tell about selling Su-27 to Pakistan.. then India had to bu mig-29 later su-30 to keep them calm.
this is the same game is being played.. once Modi goes and sign the agreement for fgfa and upgrading mki deal then promise to give them the sub deal the talks of su-35 will never surface again.
and i still didn't even mentioned you airforce totally being Russian if they say ok you guys and go F yourself and stop sending spares as well do you think you guys would be able to replace each of your fighter jet (although you won't be able to maintain it as well but still) even in a decade by buying them from UNCLE SAM or EU by totally relying on them ??
Highly unlikely scenario.. take my previous reply for this too
And don't worry about Russian economy the day you guys leave Russia Chinese will pull them up in every field and even they'll get access to warm waters through Pak so they won't miss you guys that much as much as you'll miss them my friend its like Russia loosing 70 Billion Dollars and gaining lets just say including PAK and CHINA 20 billion along with INDIA lossing everything it worked for from the start meaning being a superpower of Asia along side with CHINA......
