Having worked in public sector as an Engineer before and now working abroad, I feel the older generation is stifling growth. Another worrying trend, I am reading is news, is the prospects of reservation quota for the minorities by the politicians. Such senseless meddling in strategic areas, where merit deserves the rank, our older generation of so-called babus, netas and ministers are sowing the seeds of destabilization of the nation. For this, how can we ever blame any foreign nation. It is within that we have to do soul searching. To fellow Indians, be careful who you point fingers at. Especially to the Top rung leaders in Public offices, be careful who you promote, if you prefer nepotism, you are condemning Indians to slavery, and repeat of history. Democracy is for people who are self-confident, self-aware, self-independent, self-conscious, religiously plural in their beliefs and above all literate to a certain standard. If even one of these qualities is missing, we would end up is a fake democracy as that is being practiced today in India. A hereditary mindset, amalgam democracy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726844009873922462.post-85811494028503539302011-12-02T02:57:41.151-08:002011-12-02T02:57:41.151-08:00Typical poorly researched article that tries to la...Typical poorly researched article that tries to land the blame on Russia for the incapability of Indian production partners to master the production to a required standard.<br /><br />India blamed Russia for badly wearing barrels. Russia proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that its the India-made rounds to blame as they weren't even straight. India bought a massive batch of Russian-made rounds and problems with barrels stopped. Hmm wonder why...<br /><br />India blamed Russia for systems failing in the Indian desert heat. Russians shown the documents where it was clear that India itself rejected the air conditioner for T-90 to cut costs. After that Air Conditioner was sourced and installed on T-90. Problems almost completely disappeared down to levels where they are no bigger or smaller then average.<br /><br />The way India looks after the tech and stores it is also stuff of legends with expensive missiles and rounds left virtually out in elements. That includes precision guided artillery rounds that were withstanding the carelessness and elements in India much better then designers thought. Thats considering that India rejected the tropical version. After that India bought a large batch of tropical version of those rounds.<br /><br /> Russians briefed India on all the care that MUST be taken with T-90 and its systems. Wouldn't surprise me that Indian military doesn't really take all the due care that it should. And Russians are to blame heh?<br /><br />To those stating that India should toss Russia away as a partner. Who is India going to be left with? The USA? The democracy spreaders?

These claims can only be made by folks who haven;t read the contractual documents. The fact remains that right from the start Russia NEVER agreed to share the production technologies of its K-5 ERA tiles & the 2A46M-2 cannon with India. ToT regarding these two items was NEVER put on the table by Russia, for starters. So how can Russia be blamed for something it did never committed to in the first place? The Russians have learnt a bitter lesson from the former eastern Bloc countries like Poland, Slovakia, Czech republic & Croatia (part of erstwhile Yugoslavia) that have blatantly sold T-72 clones post-1991 and therefore Moscow has been determined never to let history repeat itself. That's why it even refused to supply the 2A46M cannons for the Malaysian PT-91Ms of Polish origin, and the cannons were ultimately supplied by Kerametal of Slovakia. And Russia isn't the sole exception when it comes to practising such policies. For instance, how many countries using the Rheinmetal-developed 120mm smoothbore cannon have actually produced it under licence? Not the Japanese, not the South Koreans, not the Swedes, Singaporeans or Poles, not Israel, and not Turkey. So why should anyone expect Russia to make the exception for India? And what exactly is to be gained by making such cannons in-country? How does it translate into any operational advantage over one's enemies? And especially in India's case it is far more cost-effective to import the 2A46M-2 directly from Russia and use the money saved to further improve and enhance the performance of the Arjun MBT's indigenous 120mm rifled-bore cannon.Sidirenkonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726844009873922462.post-73297218354090237972011-11-29T21:41:19.702-08:002011-11-29T21:41:19.702-08:00Russia responded to your report !!
