WAP 5 was imported in 1995.

So?Not much happened in this field ( conventional rail ) in these years.An

They are getting in this field,would have to work their way into developing 1000HP + traction motors.BHEL,Kirloskar & CLW are already manufacturing ones of Hitachi/ABB design.

Not really. Specifications would matter. We have a microprocessor as well but that it's processing speed is only 100 MHz.

What about Mitsubishi/Hitachi Traction motors on your HSR train sets?

I can bet even if he knows the meaning of traction motors.

I don't know who this is. I usually browse this forum for defense news. I saw a post on the AIT and had much to say on the topic so created an account today.

If you're referring to me, no, I don't know what exactly a traction motor is. It's quite irrelevant though.

Nah i was reffering to that Chini troll.

Anyway these are the things required for making a railway locomotive.

Now out of these things just Using Mistubishi's traction motor(manufactured in India) which will be replaced by indigenous one wont make the engine foreign.

I read in one of the links you shared that traction motors is the most critical technology in a locomotive. If this is still in development we should refrain from labeling our engines as indigenous. I didn't by any means imply that we don't have technology. We do and our capabilities are gradually increasing. But other nations like China and South Korea are moving at a much faster pace. We ought to catch up.

Completely agreed with you,By the way China also uses other's traction motors.
