While will they give you Technology for which they have spent Billions and many countless years. It is time we grow up. We will only get the systems or half baked TOT like the Russians give us. On paper it is complete TOT but to manufacture those equipment you have to import all the critical parts.We have alrady developed our own WLR. These transporters are not weapon systems that too only stripped down versions & limited in capability and we have paid them heavily for that. No technolgy has been transferred from US forget "Cutting Edge". If we expect cutting edge weapon [ w/o technology] system from US even that comes with strings attached to balls.
As a seller of weapon systems US is entitled to safeguards so that the same systems are not used against them in the future. Why is it that the Australians, the Japanese, Taiwanese and the Israelis do not have any problems with the American systems.
Either we become strong enough to manufacture our own equipment and systems or we shut up and try to get the best deal that money has to offer us in the open market.
