In India, told about the consequences for the United States in the event of the imposition of sanctions due to C-400
American sanctions, which may be imposed against India due to the purchase of the Russian S-400 air defense system, will hit American military industry to a greater extent. This statement was made by an employee of the analytical center of the Observer Research Foundation (India) Dhruva Jaishankara, reports Defense News.
According to an Indian analyst, the imposition of sanctions against India over the S-400 air defense system could harm US military deals with India that have already been concluded or are close to being concluded. They include deliveries of carrier-based multi-purpose helicopters Sikorsky SH-60 Seahawk, drones Sea Guardian from General Atomics and possibly modified F-16 Fighting Falcon and F/A-18 Hornet fighters.
- said Jaishankar, adding that "a decision (on not imposing or circumventing sanctions if they are imposed) can be found."
Earlier, Admiral Philip Davidson, the head of the US command in the Indo-Pacific region, said that cooperation between Washington and Delhi involves the increasing use of American equipment by India.
In the US State Department, the United States had previously set India a condition under which the United States would not apply sanctions for the purchase of C-400.
- said an unnamed official of the American administration.
