Jumpstarting the next phase of U.S.-India defence ties
The HinduOver the last few years, there has been incredible momentum in U.S.-India ties, driven primarily by their defence relationship. Furthermore, new areas in defence space exchanges have been identified based on the cooperation between the U.S. Space Command and India’s Defence Space Agency. India’s ‘Major Defence Partner’ status along with the four foundational agreements signed with the U.S. now allow for the sharing of technology and more frequent cooperation. Beyond the Indo-Pacific, a strong rationale for projecting broader industrial cooperation between Indian and U.S. companies in the defence sector is the existing scale of American investments in India. In the long run, this could lead to at least three dominant trends under the umbrella of U.S.-India defence cooperation: nurturing and growth of an ecosystem of joint ventures between companies; the U.S. incrementally gaining a larger share in the Indian defence manufacturing, and both sides ironing out existing impediments in co-development and co-production.
