Yet another case of defence imports being sued as a currency of negotiation to achieve foreign policy and trade objectives. Indigenization is always sacrificed at the altar of “smart foreign policy”.

That the mini trade deal and the news of 2 engines per month supply along with comments of potential other defence purchases are coming on the same day is not coincidental.
#CNBCTV18Exclusive | @GeneralElectric to supply 2 F404 engines for #Tejas every month till March 2026, Defence Secretary RK Singh tells @Parikshitl; adds that India is also planning to order a large number of drones and US-made advanced anti-missile systems to strengthen defence

Why does the approval for additional orders of an already under procurement fighter from an existing supplier who is a govt organisation in the same ministry as the end user take this long ?!! 🤷🏼♂️.
The Cabinet Committee on Security is expected to approve the follow-on order of 97 LCA Tejas Mk1A aircraft by the end of the ongoing financial cycle.

A very good detailed thread on raising the F-35’s maintenance capabilities within the US Armed Forces.

Need to drop this trader mentality of bean counting on stuff like this. Chump change for us. Look for intangible returns and add as USP for long term MRO prolly.
If we havent billed UK at least $200mn for this, we shd be ashamed of ourselves. .
