Kineco Kaman Composites - India Delivers Boeing P-8 MPA's Composite Mission Consoles To BAE Systems

Did you even realise that India had not even made this before? Lets not kid ourselves. 15 years back we imported even some kinda nuts and bolts. Even now, special types are imported, cos they are not in demand locally nor do we have the tech.

Because India don't need them.
It's a stupidity of highest order that you need foreign joint venture for manufacturing console boxes in offset.
If you didn't know what we could or having manufacturing then visit BHEL factory.

LOL. Are you kidding me ? We made LCA using carbon Fiber and that same infrastructure was used to make this box. And you are saying this is something grand ?

This is just a freaking empty box. ..... and Boeing will claim couple of million $ as "offset" for this box.

How can you tell India dont need them? I work in a R&D industry. Do you have any idea how much time it takes for us to import the basic of electronic and mechanical components which we studied in India?

Without the "India dont need them" items, there wont be any development in India

Of course. That is something, if not grand. What? Do you think Boeing will provide blueprints and codes for the fully integrated electronic console ? Its for us to design.

So, electronics are in empty box console?
They are making whole laptop and we are making Laptop's plastic skin.
So, what technology you have gained.

It Rubbish, that's what this is.

What did you think "OFFSET" was ? making empty boxes ? ........... Boeng was supposed to have 30% offset in making parts of the Aircraft here. So far, they have not even made 1 % of the P-8I or C-17 in India.
