We need to start product development in UAV for all 3 armed forces . That does not seem to be in the vision at all. Look at Israel, they unmanned sonar craft for naval vehicles or Russian unmanned mine removers .<br /><br />If air force is importing 100+ armed unmanned vehicles , then we know all this AMCA is crap unless supported by swarms of one time UAV . <br />Same with Future tank instead of copying Armata we should e sure arjun can operate with 10-20 unmanned tanks/tank destroyers/bunker destroyers.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726844009873922462.post-36567202704257583642019-02-05T18:11:21.675-08:002019-02-05T18:11:21.675-08:00Manufacture more in India is a solution.

We cannot trust the data from either the CSO or Niti Aayog. Most calculations by GOI can be considered to be done on the basis of assumptions.<br />Our official GDP figures should be taken as only having the governments stamp of approval, but might differ from the actual reality, of which nobody knows.<br />Pravin Srivastava and NITI Aayog’s Amitabh Kant are the only members of the NSC left after the recent resignation of PC Mohanan (the Chairman) and JV Meenakshi. These were the independent members responsible to auditing the Chaiwallahs claims on economic progress.<br />There is a desperate need for expenditure on education, health and job creation, improvements in these areas would do much more to enanhance the defence of India, it is the health and education of our population which lies at the core of a strong economy which supports a strong defence.<br />Our sixty billion dollar defence budget this year should be sufficient for the defence of India if it were not for all the cumulative criminal mismanagement and corruption, in defence planning, procurement and spending, which Broadsword for years has been reporting in this blog. <br />Jai Hind<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726844009873922462.post-38019233490616520712019-02-01T07:58:05.102-08:002019-02-01T07:58:05.102-08:00Does this include the new airforce tender...?
