Synopsis
The US is urging India to ramp up military purchases, with defence sales exceeding $25 billion since 2007. As both countries move forward with high-tech collaborations, India is pushing for co-development and co-production rather than straightforward imports. Key projects, including the joint production of fighter engines and drones, could define future defence relations, but India must carefully balance foreign collaborations with its “Make in India” policy.
