About The Book

Transfer of Defence Technology: Understanding the Nuances and Making it Work for India In recent years transfer of defence technology to India as an alternate route to indigenous development has been frequently brought up with widely varying views from the Indian defence technology fraternity. Some lament its failure to help India achieve self-reliance while others suggest it can enable India to leapfrog ahead. While it has been paradoxically found to be more expensive than outright purchase of defence systems there are indications that countries such as Israel South Korea and China have gained immensely from it. While there has been a flood of ToT proposals from foreign OEMs after the launch of the Make in India initiative there have been few proposals which have materialised and a miniscule number successfully implemented. Acknowledging the need to unravel these mysteries this book attempts to throw light on the entire range of connected aspects from a brief historical perspective to an understanding of its fundamentals and nuances to how ToT should be aligned with national goals and there on to its implementation issues. Initially addressing the conventional mode and its complexities it expands to touch upon the other modes then the unconventional ones the facilitators such as offsets and finally the transaction in its widest sense. Thus enveloping the complete spectrum it brings its insights together to converge on a possibly successful arrangement for India. Written in an explorative questioning style this book will intrigue interested readers and propel the Indian defence technology community to dwell on its findings and suggestions for the formulation of a cogent way forward.
