As per the monthly report, ISRO is in discussions to Screwdriver the Russian Engines in India, Russian team visited L&T facility in Aug. I'm guessing that engine might be RD-182

There is no harm as long as it does not kill our capabilities, we should welcome any hightech industry even if its screwdriver, this is how China also progressed and especially welcome these if its private partnership.

Chinese has the will to reverse engineer, can we do the same?? We decided to reverse engineer the KVD-1 only after we were sanctioned by Amrimutts

Private ones have more chances of making something out of a partnership if there is enough dough in it for them for their investments. L&T is clearly entering defence space in full spectrum, they don't necessarily have experience in lot of things yet, so this is helpful and also ISRO can't just become a trainer or consultant for every private company. It has its own gigs to fig out....L&T is a well run company that executes decently in general.

Probably RD-180 series, may be long term plan for LT is to get into commercial launches and partner with Roscosmos in the likes of SpaceX. ISRO needs to move away from commercial launches and focus on areas that require research and focus on space security interests and so on including manned.....sats is also something that should go private after a while.
