I always thought these exercises also had a degree of showcasing/selling certain equipments to India. Twice now I've seen Indian soldiers firing Javelin ATGMs during these exercises and India just so happens to be looking for such products, India was interested in the Stryker a few years back so in 2009 the US brought them to India- the most they had taken to any nation outside the US,Iraq or Afghanistan! Cope India showcased the C-130Js and C-17s and what are the two latest transports the IAF has ordered?!
Same goes for the M777, Apache, Chinook etc
No complaints from me- it's good the Indian military is getting exposed to such stuff- VERY good!
Interesting @ Abingdonboy . Your point (highlighted) is exactly what I had mentioned a few months back and I still remember how you had ridiculed me Glad now you think likewise as what I always thought.
