Privatize DRDO so that they will also rebrand foreign stuff with an Indian name and with "Make in India" label.
View attachment 198082
‘Privatise’ DRDO makes no sense- they are by nature an almost entire R&D entity, the private sector in India does very very little R&D of their own, in the defence space it’s even less. As you say, give the same remit to the private sector in india and they’ll go running to buy up IP from rejected products abroad and then re-brand them with a sticker

many simply don’t understand what DRDO’s mandate is and think of them as another bloated PSU.

Now only fss remaining which i doubt will be signed..as there's a lot of ambiguity over it
The one that’s meant to be the Turkish design? 0 chance that’s happening.

FSS seems unworkable and will need to be restarted from scratch. Still not sure why this is unobtainium for a country that makes SSBN, aircraft carriers, satellites and heavy launch vehicles
