Indo-Israel submarine plan surfaces
TIMES NEWS NETWORK[ FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 2003 01:57:35 AM ]
NEW DELHI: Rebuffing the anti-Israeli brigade, the Vajpayee government has upgraded the defence collaboration plan with Israel. Tel Aviv has decided to take on India as partner for its submarine manufacturing programme. Disclosing a little of what transpired during the visit of Israeli prime minister Ariel Sharon, top government sources asserted their preference for Israel as the new and increasingly important source of defence supplies.
The Israeli offer to upgrade India’s status from an important client of its defence equipment to a partner in its defence-production programme marks an important leap forward in the relations between the two countries. It indicates the trust Tel Aviv has reposed in India, a realisation which stems not just from their shared concerns about jehadi terrorism, but also from the economic and technological development undertaken by the two countries defying all odds.
“There is some likelihood of our being a partner in producing conventional submarines. They are in the process of producing a new submarine and they would like us to be junior partner,” these sources pointed out, adding, “The idea hasn’t crystallised as yet.”
