Which nation sells arms on installments?

Installment isn't correct word, rather the payments are on Pro-rata basis, essentially they pay for what is being produced and inducted. So the entire project cost is actually spread over a period of time and is adjusted for inflation as well.

Rule of thumb;Indian Armed Forces:

Each unspent amount goes back to the government coffer.

People here are exaggerating things in favor of Indian Navy to buy F-35 and what not as if India is a advanced economy sitting on a cash pile.

Here is Navy's allocation:

Indian Navy's 14% share of the total budget defense of 54 billion means it gets roughly 7.3 billion.

Out of which it has to pay 42% towards the salaries:

So the net amount comes to apx 4 billion USD.

Any import and the Navy has to pay 30% customs duty.
