Our scientists definitely want this deal... Just look at our defence organizations DRDO,HAL, etc... None of them have capable people who can think. Coz whether they do something or not, nobody can remove them!and their brains have been rusted decades ago. A freind of mine who worked with DRDO for 2 years says that only 1-2% is original rest all is copy-paste..
In such a scenario, they will be just waiting in their wings for American support to get equipment.
I am sure if this deal gets through, within a few years we'll see lots of things done by our nuclear scientists (basically US work with Made In India labelled on them beneath the tri-colour)

DRDO does only assembling of technologies developed or bought from other countries. thats the main reason why india have guns made of spareparts from us, uk, australia .. (all r examples... i dont know exactly)..
