Re: Military Acquisitions, Partnerships & Developments
If India successfully buys Embraer’s commercial aircraft division it could be a great advantage for the Netra AEW&CS as embraer will be out of blacklist and a Indian controlled company
Later it could also lead the way for KC-390 partnership for HAL

India is better armed now to take care of such situation than in Kargil. We have excalibur artillery rounds and also can do LGB strikes from well within our side to take care of these ridge sitters.

In Indian Navy
16 ASM/SSM is Destroyer
8 ASM/SSM is Frigates
Size doesn't matter
But I have always felt that the No of SAMs is less that too without any point-defense missile, with only 32 Barak-8 taking the roll of both LR SAM and point-defense missile
