Indija hoce veci deo kolaca u projektu FGFA,trenutnom situacijom su nezadovoljni.
Citat: India is expressing displeasure with Russia over New Delhi’s low level of participation in the joint development of the Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft (FGFA), despite being an equal financial partner in the project and placing an order of more than US $30 billion for the new planes.
Indian Defence Minister A.K. Antony told his counterpart in Moscow during a visit this month that India’s share of the work should be 50 percent in development and production of the FGFA, which is still in the prototype stage, MoD sources said.
FGFA - Hteli bi jednak deo tehnologija, pitanje je koliko ce Rusija dopustiti to jer se time njen udeo tj. profit u buducim prodajam moze smanjiti kao sto se i Indijska samostalnost u proizvodnji i razvoju moze povecati i samim tim odnos kupac-prodavac promeniti...Primetno je Indijsko otezanje finalizacije u mnogim nabavkama i insistiranje na tehnologijama da bi stekli sto vecu samostalnost i vecinu oruzija kupovali samo od sebe sto je dobro za njihovu industriju.
