A high level Israeli delegation will arrive in India next week to discuss counter-terrorism and anti-infiltration strategies in Jammu and Kashmir.
They will also hold talks with Army Chief General J.J. Singh, Navy Chief Admiral Sureesh Mehta, Air Force Chief Air Chief Marshal F H Major and defence secretary Shekhar Dutt to discuss on each other's "security perspectives".
The delegation is also scheduled to visit the Western Naval Command at Mumbai.
"The Israelis, who will arrive here on Tuesday, will share their experiences of tackling infiltration and terrorism. They will also review the functioning of the large number of Israeli-origin anti-infiltration and night-vision devices deployed along the Line of Control," reports Times of India.
The Army uses a wide array of surveillance devices, ranging from unattended ground sensors and HHTIs (hand-held thermal imagers) to LORROS (long-range reconnaissance and observation systems) and BFSRs (battlefield surveillance radars), most of these procured from Israel.
Israel also supplies crucial defense equipment/armament to the Indian Air Force and Indian Navy including state of the art fighter jet avionics, missile defense systems, UAVs etc. and is set to bid for and win major defense contracts in the coming 18-24 months.
Israel is India's second largest and fastest growing defense and strategic partner.
