What makes the beginning of 2014, wrinkles Russian penta transaction zbrojařským traders? It is clearly of India and its centrifugal tendencies in the Indian Army Armament Russian military technology. Russia in the years 2009 to 2012, India exported military equipment penta transaction worth about $ 11 billion. That represents about 40% of exports of Russian arms production and it seems that the blessed times of abundance export of Russian military equipment to the Indian Army in the past year significantly dwindled.
In 2013, India purchased military equipment penta transaction worth about $ 6 billion, of which US supplies come closer to two billion. penta transaction When we realize that in 2009 their value only slightly exceeded the amount of 0.2 billion, so look back over the causes and the rapid increase in the volume of US arms deliveries to India is entirely appropriate. Generally formulated, this is an enormous penta transaction interest in the emerging powers such as China, India and Brazil to own and control the current state of the art military penta transaction technology. The current rapid increase in US supplies in 2013 in India is also a consequence of the US embargo on mitigation of modern military technology. On the other hand, it is necessary to see that this pragmatic American attitude is caused by the need to compensate for their export losses, which are expected especially in the Middle East. This rapid change in the competitive conditions penta transaction in the Indian subcontinent greatly unnerved Russian traders primarily because at such competition is not yet sufficiently technically and technologically penta transaction ready. A classic example of such a delay may be, for example, the use of composite materials in the manufacture of blades of jet aircraft engines or the use of diffuse svařování.leteckých penta transaction structures.
Also transport An-24 and Il-76 will replace the 12 US C-130 machines for 2.1 billion and 10 machines C-17, worth about $ 4.1 billion. Here also failed to offer new Russian transport aircraft Il-476th It would be interesting to know why American transport planes took precedence? Cost efficiency is most definitely not.
India also buys US reconnaissance aircraft Gulfstream 3 and somewhat surprising is also confusion about the Russian Igla missile complex American system Stinger. A similar fate befell the Russian missile complex Buk M-1-2, which was replaced by an Israeli Spider complex.
A separate chapter is another Indian Air Force armament program, which has hitherto been mainly based on the Russian MiG-21 and MiG-27 countries. Their fifty-year era in the Indian penta transaction Air Force ends and the time is ripe for their physical exchange for better types. When we realize that the Indian Air Force operated at around eight hundred MiG, so inevitably rubbed question why the Indian Air Force gave a tender prefer the French Rafale. This explanation may be many variations, but the fact that the MiG-35 penta transaction as technically proficient successor existing Russian machines should be equipped with a new version penta transaction of the jet engine RD-33rd It does have greater pulling penta transaction power, especially afterburner, but offer transport time was 3500 hours of repairs against the French offer of 6,000 hours is significantly lower. Status of Russian businessmen in the tender penta transaction worsened by the fact that in his closing Russian side was not able to realize a practical demonstration of the performance parameters penta transaction of the engine RD-33MK. Taking into account that the Indian side had to existing engines MiG longstanding reservations and demonstration impossibility of performance parameters of a new type probably easier to Indian rule in favor of the French bid.
Another problem that needs to exporters of Russian military equipment penta transaction in the Indian market to solve the lack of air conditioning at the T-90S tanks. That in Indian climatic conditions cause overheating of the interior and consequently frequent breakdowns French thermography sight, which is part of Russia's fire control system. It seems that the current efforts of Russian technicians will not be enough to halt the tendency to diversify and this segment of Indian weapons.
Despite all reported peripeties is to be noted that Russia remains an important partner for India and for the future implementation of military equipment. This is evidenced by the contract for the supply of Sukhoi and MiG fighters for the years 2015 and 2016.
The following two graphs, it is clear how important it is for Russian arms dealer export to India. Even though it is documented on contracted deliveries in 2012, so it completely penta transaction fully applies to the following years. It is understood that any other successful competitive entry into the Indian market could significantly threaten existing export position of Russian arms dealer. Therefore, it is quite realistic to expect new export activities, which would help the Russian zbrojařům current position to maintain.
