Stay, Yes, you may know that the Sino-Pak alliance is driving India into that partnership, you have mentioned.. Israel currently supplies our defence forces some very useful "force-multipliers" and battle-field electronics. I read that at the LoC in Kashmir, Israeli detection equipment has reduced out casualties but increased that of the thugs trying to sneak into our side. The USA has discovered the "double-faced game" Pakistan has been playing with them. USA has every intention of steadying the defence capabilities of India as against its enemies. Of course, a country of India's size and responsibilities cannot rely on anyone totally. Our best bet is to produce what we need inside our own defence factories. I think the GoI should allow private industries to enter defence production and research. They will be surprised by the quality and speed of equipment produced. The alliance you suggest is evolving slowly. Unfortunately, frustrated Pak ISI may let off more Baazaar bombs. We can minimise that too through electronics and high observation towers built at strategic places in our cities.
