India-US Howitzer Deal Likely to Be Delayed Once Again

[ashok321]

Defense procurement/acquisition. Rule of thumb = 15% down payment.

Do not have that much cash at your disposal?
Do not sign the deal.
Simple.

What arithmetic & a shitty extrapolation is involved here?

Exactly. No money now. Parrikar gets way too much blame. He runs the MoD on the Indian budget, not the American one.

I'm seriously considering Parrikar as a clog in the defense ministry.

Whether Parrikar is a decent or good DM will be known in a couple of years, what he shouldn't be judged by is how many mega billion deals he signs. We still have a tough economy and unless that improves, there will be only a gradual movement even if marked by occasions bursts of energy.

India be like to bargain on the small stuff, over a few dollars. But Indians are cheap when it comes to put the life of their dansoldiers and pilots in danger. It's clear that Indians value money over life.

If you have not any "Friends" or "All Weather Friends" that means you are quite alone in the world, No country wants to co-operate with you from heart. Even some countries are co-operating with India, but for money or business or cheap labour. Thats it. and even some international companies like mikoyan, finmeccanica, now DCNS are being blamed by Indians. That is a failure of your Foreign Policy.
