The Green Pine radar is obsolete and to be replaced with Swordfish. India has taken it upon itself to divest from reliance by domestic production. This is an example of what India must do, base the next generation of technology from Israeli systems and then cut them out of the loop. If India is forced to rely on them for any protracted amount of time, Unkill Sam can come and have them cut off all ties. Israel is a good source for stealing US technology, we are doing it ourselves. Strangely enough, Israel doesn't seem to mind.I agree with all your points except the last one. Israel has provided India with state of the art technology which even Russia cannot provide. That too with full ToT and unlimited license on their radar systems and other electronics. Israel has provided a lot of intelligence too on the Hawala network in the Middle East. Indian and Israeli relations are quite mature. Unkil States may create problems whenever there are ToT issues. But, then Israel comes over to India and redesigns the entire system in India itself....making it more Indian than Israeli (Read Greenpine system).
Note that the Greenpine development started some time in 2000, only 2 years after we faced unending sanctions from US and Europe.
