The US navy is currently looking for a stronger naval pretense in Indian Ocean with the help of Indian Navy, US looks for the Andaman naval base to carryout operations against Chinese increasing naval activity in Indian ocean as well as Bay of Bengal, where Indian navy short on legs to confront the Chinese violations in Indian waters.

US will support the Indians by providing real time imaginary of Chinese naval ship movements to Indian navy to confront. US may fly the modern MQ 4C BAMS along with the Indian navy P 8I for long endurance surveillance.
India almost close to sign the military logistics supply agreement with the Americans, which can support each others military operations, also include humanitarian and disaster relief, with the logistics agreements US and India both works together to solve issues related to both nations. The modified LSA agreements specially focus the Chinese aggression near Indian borders.

After breaking the decade old ideology of non alignment, The new government taken better steps to counter the Chinese influence in Indian sub continent, which include revamping all stalled construction near Chinese border. where China forced the Indian government to freeze all construction works close to borders.

This include a bridge construction near Ladakh, more number of ITBP outpost construction, allowing US search and rescue team to search for the mortal remains of B 24 bomber crashed near Arunachal, these all plans are forced to freeze due to the Chinese influence. Even more China irked the Indian navy by sending warships and nuclear submarines inside Indian waters in Andaman. where Indian navy short on legs to confront the Chinese ships.

The new government taken some good steps, revamping all constructions close to border, establishing naval bases and re innovating the abandoned air fields close to the Chinese border, even more teaming with the US to counter Chinese influence.
US navy admirals once expressed about the interest of using Andaman islands to operate the Navy’s MQ 4C Triton maritime surveillance drone. The same drone which is offered to Indian navy and still on consideration. with the use of this base, US Navy can monitor the movement of Chinese ships and submarines in Indian ocean and Bay of Bengal through Malacca strait.

Malacca strait is the narrow way which can be used by the Chinese to enter Indian waters, When war erupts between China and India, China READ MORE AT :> http://www.indiandaily.in/us-looks-andaman-stronger-naval-presence/
 
India is the new fodder in war against commies...
 
Well the cooperation US is offering to India isn't exactly free.:pop:


Correct. India is not signing LSA and giving bases to US for free. India expects some ToT in return. That was the reason the LSA was not signed yet. Even though the LSA agreement is ready for signing the ToT agreements are not.
 
Obviously India and the USA will cooperate to keep China under check but it won't need to become providing bases. I personally won't have any issues if they do, it is simply not needed because the Chinese do not merit such attention. If they ever become as mature a competition to the US as USSR was, then may be. But all signs are that the Chinese downward swirl is picking up momentum, so external forces are not required.
 
Pointless.

India would never....let me reiterate to emphasize....never allow US to keep a military base on Indian land.

Incorrect my friend. The rules of engagement has been changed by our so called nonalignment policy towards China and the world.

However a US base is out of question but US requests will be considered.

Forget being fodder, We have seen how cooperative those could be. For them its always them.

That's naive
 
It will be frustrating to see any foreign military base on our land. But I still believe our government will not allow any foreign military to set up base on our land.
 
The day India let US to have a military/civilian base and its hardware on Indian soil against any 3rd country,India would became a failed state and Banana republic offering the sovereignty to the highest bidder.

I understand the history of third world countries with American military bases is not great

Why go on a blind limb and state no American bases ?? Keep it as a bargaining chip with Pakistan and China
 
Lol at this article. ... there'll never be a American base in india
 
American requests to use Indian ports / bases would be considered on a case by case and on a temporary basis. India will never give an impression of US permanent bases in India. There will be US traffic in Indian ports / bases.
