CAN MOSCOW RETAIN THE INDIAN ARMS MARKET?

[Hindustani78]

India will get Tanks and APC's from Israel
India will get Fighter planes from US and France
India will get Submarines from Germany

Indian Scientists and engineers are producing all these equipment in Republic of India.

India would be procuring F-16s starting next year but the next generation fighters would not be procured anytime before 2030

There is R&D platforms within Republic of India and Republic of India is even having manufacturing capabilities to produce defence equipment.

This is the reason that United States of America wants the production of F 16's in Republic of India because Republic of India is having raw material, man power and even expertises in the defence sector.

any chance of F-35's in IAF ?? i mean just imagine IAF with F-35's and Rafael

Even if IAF would like to procure F-35s US is not in a position to deliver them until 2030 due to the current customer order backlog.

Very unlikely for several reasons, theres a higher chance we would get the F-35 then India.

Russia's special envoy on Afghanistan

Downplaying Russia's military exercise with Pakistan two months ago, Zamir Kabulov, who overseas Russia's engagement in Afghanistan, referred to India's increasing cooperation with the US.

India has close cooperation with the US, does Moscow complain? Then why complain about much lower level of cooperation with Pakistan, he asked when referred to Russia-Pakistan military exercise.

I would not see this happening , specially after what happen with F-16's , we pay and when US refused to give us the Remaining F-16 they did not even return our money ..

If we pay for them they probably will sell it to us, we have halted nuclear tests now.

 

[YeBeWarned]

I doubt Pakistan will compromise on that , and now Pakistan have TFX and J-31 as option so i doubt Pakistan will Compromise Nuclear Test for 18 F-35's .

TFX isn't even built, J-31 is far from ready or being on par with the F-35.

Indian Scientist and Engineers are producing this in India But Army and Navy wants Russian Tanks like T-90 T-90MS
Airforce wants PAK-FA T 50 Rafales
Navy want European Submarines
P-8 are from US
Defence Systems are From Russia

India is the biggest importer of Arms (weapons) in the World

First thing you need to understand that Republic of India weapons exports are only to those countries with whom we are having good relations.

And regarding Tanks and planes , Republic of India is producing by themselves.

Heavy Vehicle Factory which produces battle tanks for the Indian Army. The plant became an independent engine factory in 1995 and has since produced 8,331 engine variants for army, the Heavy Vehicles Factory and the Ordnance Factory, Medak, Andhra Pradesh.

The three main variants of diesel engines are the V 46-6 for use in the Ajeya (T-72), V92S2 that powers Bhishma tanks and the UTD-20 for Sarath infantry combat-cum-armoured personnel carrier. The engine variants also have multi-fuel options.

The ISO 9001:2000 certified EFA produces over 500 engines per annum against a set capacity of about 350 engines, supplies variants to the Army’s pool of spare engines and undertakes repair and overhaul of engines.

You need to understand one thing that Republic of India is a key player in global affairs and have worked to bring development in the region.

Indian weapons exports are for limited nations which more or less depends on the relations with those nations.

Russian Federation and even the Chinese are aware about the industrial base of the Indian Defense production and do have rough idea about the production line.
