Israel-India Defence Collaboration: India and Israel appear to be entering a chapter in their defence relationship that goes far beyond the familiar buyer-seller dynamic. Officials on both sides believe that the old pattern of simply purchasing weapon systems is slowly fading. Within the coming year, the first signs of this change may become visible on the ground in India.

According to reports, Israel is now exploring the possibility of moving parts of its defence manufacturing chain to India. The idea is that the weapons that Israel presently sends to New Delhi may soon be produced inside India under the ‘Make in India’ initiative. This includes high-tech drones and several advanced weapons platforms that Tel Aviv is prepared to co-develop with Indian partners.
