Indian firms have supplied Myanmar Navy with equipment before and this is just a follow on event.

Myanmar is an international pariah nowadays and is a ready customer for Indian defense equipment.

Bhai sahab, pehle Indian Army ka order to poora ho jae. ATAGS yaha nahi aaya ki aap to export karne lag gae.

Myanmar cannot afford BrahMos. And what is it going to do with them anyway? Launch it against Rohingya terrorists?

AKs do that just fine.

No they are not. They mainly buy weapons from China.

They do.

But in limited numbers only. Dhruvs are an example.
