So you are talking about an Indianised version of the famous Howard Hughes.....Now, that's a workable plan. Give them expat status in India, pay them insanely well.
Oh wait - the PSUs will not be able to do that. They just cannot execute such a plan.
So it comes back to - allow private participation in defence production. The private companies like Reliance, Tatas, Mahindra etc. will automatically poach people from the well known defence firms worldwide - they need no advice in doing such things.
The Indian companies are already involved in the businesss. We have L & T who is a major player then we have Bharat Forge, Mahindra (they are building a 5 seater plane...not a combat plane but then i guess eventually they might), Reliance has tied up with Dassault (I don't know what has happened after the announcement), then we have TATA one of the major players in vehicle field apart from UAV's, software, F-INSAS etc.
You see money is not the problem at the moment, when company can spend 40K cr to buy jets, another few thousand corers for aircraft carrier, another few corers to build submarines, then it can certainly employ someone knowledgeable. I guess they should really think on that lines along with concentrating on expansions and modernisations....
