Russians are ripping us off.

Missile is not reusable product like fighter jet, means if russia doesn't export engine we can't even make a single bramhos

Seeker, Engine, Fuel.

 

[Blademaster]

Seeker, Engine, Fuel.

Now we make our own seeker. I guess the engine is the only thing remaining that is imported.

Yes,

But even then we can't go on and replace them with our indigenous components.

 

[Blademaster]

Yes,

But even then we can't go on and replace them with our indigenous components.

Why not?

 

[Chinmoy]

Why not?

Because, then it would not be BRAHMOS.

The whole thing is a conceptual model of wheeled tank.

AMCA is phucked :

The entire thinking itself is flawed. All we've to do is look at the fate private shipyards like Pipavav etc suffered. There's not much market for Naval products outside the Indian one.

It's difficult to sustain Indian public sector shipyards as it is. Where's the scope for a pvt shipyard? The balance sheet of L&T Katupalli is before us . It's only coz a giant L&T is backing up the shipyard that they're plodding on.

And now we've plans to set up an alternative line in a pvt shipyard vide the Project 75 I for building subs whereas the DPSU in Mazgaon can constuct 3 sub's at the same time with zero export potential as of the present.

Where's the scope for it? Look at RoK or Japan or even France. How many OEMs do they have constructing ships & subs. On the contrary in both Japan's & RoK's case they had different pvt OEMs collaborate to mfg the subs. And they're actively pursuing export options too especially on the case of RoK.

Barring the US, Ex USSR / Russia & China none of the other nations have multiple OEMs for naval & air force platforms & they've both the economy & the requirements for such platforms in great numbers. Having faced dwindling markets & domestic requirements, even Russia has merged MiG & Su into one unit.

Where's the scope for us to get ambitious to set up 2 OEMs - 1 in the public sector & 1 in the pvt sector to mfg such FAs. It's a bad idea which has run its course & needs to be buried. If need be Tata's, Mahindra's etc can be roped in to mfg LRUs & other important components / sub systems with HAL being the principle system integrator.

Where we need multiple OEMs particularly in the pvt sector is to build platforms & armaments to meet the IA's requirements & here the picture is a mixed one.
