Indian Dhruv helicopters dismally fail in Ecuador

Mauritius has also purchased the Dhruv helicopter due to cultural and ancestral ties with India. But the Dhruv spends not most, but all its times grounded. Mauritians have never seen a Dhruv intervention while this helicopter is supposed to intervene for medical evacuation and sea surveillance. Mauritius mainly uses its French made light helicopter-the Fennec and Air Mauririus uses its old Bell Ranger helicopters. Despite receiving technology transfer and all US and EU techologies, India is failing to produce true indigeneous products, weaponry or any other things. This country is good only to manufacture fake medicines, drugs, money laundering and Bollywood films with skin bleached actors.

please prove the bold part.

Don't bother. This is how it works:

India doesn't make something - "Haha, India can't make anything."
India makes something but doesn't sell it - "Haha, no one wants to buy Indian crap. India can't make anything"
India makes something and sells it - "Haha, they bought it but it's still crap. India can't make anything."

ISLAMABAD, July 27 (APP )- Ecuadorian Air Force (EAF) which inducted seven Indian manufactured Dhruv helicopters, at a package cost of $ 50 millions, is finding itself beset with problems even as the last consignment of two helicopters has barely arrived in the country.

According to the aviation sources, one of the inducted Dhruv helicopters crashed last year while two others have been grounded on account of malfunctioning of over-speed management unit (OMU).

While the Ecuadorian Air Force is plagued by Dhruv related maintenance issues, its difficulties have been compounded by exorbitant repair cost demanded by Indian manufacturers.

The original US company that manufactures the OMU, charges $100000 as the repair cost while the Indians have demanded $250000 for the same job.

India has also raised the price of two additional Dhruvs that the EAF had originally planned as additional follow through acquisitions; demanding $ 12 million apiece.

The EAF has informed the Indian government that because of cost issues, maintenance problems, under par flight performance and poor post sale spare support it is considering cancelling further orders for induction of Dhruv helicopters.

According to observers the disappointing Ecuadorian experience with the Dhruv Helicopters doesn’t augur well for the Indian efforts to find a toe hold in South American countries for its aviation products.

It is bound to have its negative fallout as other South American governments; Columbia, Brazil and Chile, who were contemplating induction of Dhruv helicopters in their respective air forces, are now certain to revisit such plans.

Dhruv is not only accident prone, overly priced and having maintenance support issues, it also comes with the Indian tendency of creating dependence and over invoicing, which make even costlier options from other countries more palatable, say observers.
