1. 20 Billion means 2000 Cr and not 200 Cr 2. Some Middle Range Agni ver. are already tested 3. ICBM is based on the GSLV tech so if got GSLV or ICBM it will both ways win win solution
Sir, Indian defence programme is known to achieve what it is supposed to, but almost always crossing the deadlines. Don't they apply state of the art management techniques to curb the timelines of the given projects? Aren't they equipped with the latest knowledge of all the management techniques? I would also say that the best minds of India should be there working on the projects like ICBM , not MNC's software projects..!!
Our military expenses in proportion to our GDP is very low. We should atleast keep it at 3.5% of our GDP and also additionally fund a lot of old and new research areas. The ICBM is a good thing, but India should have gotten into this much sooner, on top, other things like space based weapons etc. It is like we have to finish the conventional things first and move into advanced things. We should do things parallelly as other advanced countries are going forward. If you look at the AGNI stuff, to know that it is still not in serial production is bad. How long we have known agni to be our missile of choice. Only, prithvi is in production now and most others are either under user testing or under development. Most important factor is increase the defence budget to fund all these projects parallely at the same time, fund the new and advanced projects, such that when we are there, we dont have to start all over again.
