C-400 production going to localize in India

The head of the state corporation Rostec said that Moscow is in dialogue with New Delhi on the localization of C-400 production in India. The official also announced the start date for the launch of a series of the latest C-500 systems.

Sergey Chemezov, head of the state corporation Rostec, said in an interview RBC that India is interested in localizing the production of S-400 Triumph air defense systems. Negotiations on the sale of complexes began in the year 2015, and are now at an advanced stage.

According to Chemezov, Moscow and New Delhi have extensive experience in joint cooperation and partial transfer of production under purchased licenses. So the release of many elements of the Su-30MKI multi-functional fighters was localized, tank T-90, and the Onyx missile received a rethinking, becoming the basis for a joint Russian-Indian project of BrahMos missiles.

Chemezov noted that the C-400 Triumph system "Sellable and in high demand". C-500 coming to replace it, which, according to the head of Rostec, will go into production in a year, is not yet planned for export.

First of all, you need to provide your army.

- stressed the official.

The interview touched on the topic of contract payments, which was hampered by sanctions. For this reason, China, for example, at the beginning of the 2019 of the year could not pay about 1 billion of existing contracts: at the moment, this issue has been resolved. Sergei Chemezov explained that for three years the corporation has gone from the dollar, the calculation is either on a barter basis, or in national currency.

The contract for the supply of C-400 Triumph systems was signed during the visit of Russian President Vladimir Putin to India in the 2018 year. Its total value is $ 5,43 billion. Despite Washington’s pressure, New Delhi says it’s not going to give up Russian air defense systems.

Army rearmament on C-400

Meanwhile, rearmament to the new system of the Russian army continues. Anti-aircraft missile regiment of the North fleet (SF), deployed on the island of South Archipelago Novaya Zemlya and previously equipped with S-300 systems, received at its disposal S-400. According to the SF press service, this has increased the area of ​​controlled airspace in the region.

The S-400 Triumph anti-aircraft missile system is a long and medium range system. Target detection range - 600 km; in total, simultaneous tracking of 80 objects can be conducted. India should become the fourth buyer of the system, after Belarus, China and Turkey.

And how will China look at this?

[pru-pavel]

China in order to localize something in general with Moscow does not even need to bother

[Nycomed]

Yes, I’m not talking about this, I’m talking about localization in India.

[SERGEY SERGEEVICS]

I am about localization in India.

India, an independent country, which itself has the right, to dispose of what to do and is not at the disposal of China.

[Vladimir16]

Hindus will make a version of C-400 which in the photo is with bent pipes.

[Same lech]

And how will China look at this?

China is looking for someone to steal modern technology ... and look.
Hindus, as always, in their repertoire ... we will buy but only with technology and preferably at a low price.

As always ... This is the state program in India - "localization" ... Whether it works out or not - in a few years it will become clear, and the grandchildren are already provided for ...

[SERGEY SERGEEVICS]

China is looking to steal modern technology ...

But how can I say, China itself can now compete, in many countries, for the production of modern technologies, its own production and without theft.

[Sarmat Sanych]

The main thing for the S-400 was received from the Indians in cash advance for $ 2,7 billion. Turkey and China have already received, next in line, contracts with Algeria, Egypt, Saudi and Iraq, and this amounts to tens of billions of dollars. Plants "Almaz-Anteya" in the Kirov and Nizhny Novgorod regions work in three shifts without stopping, apparently to expand production.

Is it difficult to write a normal title? what is not complex but partial? it's like very different levels.

The Turks took and bought for a year and a half. Hindus have been trading for 4 years and do not know whether they will buy or not. In my opinion, C-400 is a status thing, and it is commercially incorrect to distribute licenses for its production. This is how production licenses will be distributed - well, SELL EXPENSELY - a manufacturer of supercars or Swiss watches. No matter how it is economically viable, whatever quality control may exist, Rolls-Royce limousines will never be produced in India or Brazil.
If domestic sellers nevertheless agree to the preferences desired by the Indians, they will be worthy of contempt, honestly. Let the Indians do "Grippens" at home.

True thought. But the supercar is now announced not C-400, but C-500. Now C-400 is a cash cow, a workhorse.

[Galleon]

Even the old models of luxury cars or Swiss watches are not left to the mercy. I also thought about it. Holding a brand can be more profitable to sell licenses and Technology.

[Alexander Ra]

Are our rulers all-in? Bad sign.

[Galleon]

4 years are traded. It is more likely the Indians are trying to go all-in, but their claims look like a bluff))

[ZVS]

Everyone is ready to sell to the baboons, who will be sold to the Americans or the French tomorrow.

[armata_armata]

Turkey has already been sold and promised them to localize production, so c-400 technology is already with NATO. No need to kick here to India

[Ros 56]

And why do we need it, we have our hard workers looking for work. For a long time, everyone understood that it is most profitable to sell finished products. Kalashnikov as an example, all and sundry riveted, but what do we have?

The words are not a boy, but a husband. I could not comment on this article, or rather discussion, everyone is talking not about the blizzard. And the fact that they are sitting without work is such nonsense. The degradation in people is complete.

Headache.

[Chaldon48]

Localization in India? Tanks also began to try, too, as the Indian military themselves prefer tanks assembled in the Russian Federation, and the C-400 will be more difficult.

[Sniper]

it is also necessary to urgently transfer the C-400 .. complexes to Cuba, and Nicaragua,

[rocket757]

To localize, isn’t that what all technologies should be given there?
It is already a risk in the fact that what happens will not work that way ....

[Nikolaevich I]

"They are going to localize the production of the S-400 ..." Is this good or bad for the Russian Federation? "And the fick knows him, tovarisch enaral!" For India it is clear that it is not bad! Well, what if you sit down and ponder together? To sell the S-400 "left and right" so "sharply" like seasonal tomatoes, one must be sure that the S-500 will be different (!) ... similar, but different, that is: "Fedot, but not the same. .. "! And you can also look at the situation as follows ...:
Isn't the S-300/400/500 concept exhausting itself? Maybe the designers decided that it was time to wipe at "William our Shakespeare"? Little by little, but gradually "radical changes" are brewing in the evolutionary development of air defense systems, which will lead to the emergence of a new concept! Here are just some of the "milestones" of this path: 1. The desire of radars to look beyond the horizon:
masts - "telescopes", folding "polynomial" manipulators are already "not enough"! Something else may come to the "rescue": AFAR copters? Let's wait and see ... SAMs can also undergo "changes: 1. A significant increase in range, altitude, speed, maneuverability
with a "sharp" decrease in mass-dimensional characteristics, which will require a broader transition to the concept of "hit-to-kill" (kinetic defeat) or a "narrow" fragmentation "beam" controlled in the direction, which in turn requires a significant increase accuracy, noise immunity, combination of guidance systems 2. Wider use of cruise ramjet engines; 3. Possible equipping missile warheads with "own" engines with OVT or / and transverse thrust engines (DPT) ... the use of AR.GSN with AFAR and "combined" GOS will become, practically, "obligatory"!

Judging by the TPK curves in the photo, this is a trial Indian party.

[Andrey Andreev_4]

It was necessary to crop the upper part of the TPK when cropping the image, then it would be a trial Jewish party.

[Andrey Andreev_4]

C400 in the Arctic is certainly the height of waste. Are they there that the rookeries of fur seals are going to protect?

[Pavel57]

And what else is not localized in India? Su-30, T-90, Bramos. Now C-400. Not the worst option.
