Actually glad there is this policy change. Pakistan stopped being a credible threat since 2000. Should've moved on from Pak centric approach in the armed forces to Sino centric. But the government kept its focus on Pakistan that we simply didn't take our Eastern front seriously and hoped poor infra on this side would prevent a Chinese invasion.
You see this Indian mentality is your biggest drawback....as soon as you purchase an item, you start boxing above your weight, it suddenly becomes the war winner......remember how you people use to boast, ''SU-30 is an overkill for Pakistan, its meant for China and how MiG-29s are sufficient to take care of PAF''.....guess what, when the test came.....there were no MiG-29s in sight .
Sense in insecurity spanning Millennia.
Another emergencyIndia is a classic example of an insecure nation, that takes SOLACE in buying advanced weaponry on the brink of a war. A country that has spent trillions in acquisitions over a passage of time , still feels coming short in its abilities and capabilities. Nevertheless the knee jerking Indians have added REAPERS to their shopping list on a fast track basis.

In 1962 the West filled India with all the advanced weapons of its time. Although by the time they reached India Aksai Chin was lost, and all these weapons were used against Pakistan a few years later. Reapers are a good platform but the Chinese have made great strides in this field, so it may not trouble them that much. As far as Pakistan is concerned we dont have a good history with them on our Western borders, maybe this time around we may be able to take our REVENGE that is long overdue.
Where is that 140 pages thread declaring Pakistan was going to get new F-16s from US?
Its a case of URGENT delivery.
Apples and oranges.....discussing about a possible purchase is one thing and then adding to that, that this purchase will cause Indians to sell up their cows is a different matter......
