Deals with "friend" Russia costing dear



2 comments:

  1. I think the extrordinary price rises for some Russian weapons can be partially seen as cross payment for Russian design assistance in areas India would rather not admit. I suspect (without proof) that this includes Russian assistance for:

    - stealth features for the "indigenous" Arihant sub

    - reactor design assistance for Arihant

    - (most senstively) thermonuclear and boosted fission test results for India's nuclear program - perhaps even design concepts.

    No thermonuclear aspirant would pass up foreign assitance if this cuts years and billions off a weapons program.
