Whatever tech we are trying to get from there, unless it's fully absorbed, it can be cut off at whim and fancies of any new thumpavatars.
For the life of me, I cannot understand, we have clear requirements to buy from USA - ge engines - clear way to reduce the trade deficit between bharat and USA.

This is like the entry level job fallacy.
Entry level guy can't get a job because he has no experience.

We need to start at some point and allow for faults and mistakes while also trying to pick the most promising candidate to succeed in learning and improving on the job

i believe we can easily chai-biskoot any deals until winds turn favourable again. we dont need to pause any purchases - just need AoN, CCS, trials, if forced then a piecemeal order.. and this is just.. our normal IST.

Meanwhile, the reality of the Army's acquisition of the AH-64 Apache. Army HQ made this bed, now they can have fun lying in it.

just another data point:
earlier, PoK retaking had the additional character of the CPEC road passing through the area (so cheen can get involved)

I am not a regular poster, but a daily reader. The Chinese have used their jf17 to great effect to pull smaller Air forces into their fold.
