    Well, in India they will be collected, as I understand it, without production. or?

    Ideally, of course, send assembly kits and then by yourself.

      I believe that this will not happen. Most likely they will request documentation.
      Friendship for money, so to speak.

        Most likely, they will begin to stir up like a "Raphael". But it's worth taking part in the process. An attempt is not torture, as Lavrenty Pavlovich once aptly remarked

        and what's bad, if we take into account that it is India, which has never framed us? Our relations are not just good with the Indians, but since the days of Indira Gandhi they have been really friendly. And when our military-industrial complex was bent in the 90s, India placed orders at our dying plants.

    Interestingly, who will buy and install the engines on them - after all, the "Turbomeka" are French, and we are under EU sanctions, a dual-purpose helicopter. We don't have our own engines for it yet.
    And whether after the Mistrals it is necessary to tie up with France in the military-technical field is a rhetorical question.

      It is possible that the Indians themselves will be. The Vietnamese, on the other hand, ordered engines for the Cheetahs in Ukraine, which they will build in Zelenodolsk.

      Perhaps this is one of the options to circumvent Western sanctions in order to continue to rafter helicopters both for themselves and for other countries.

      They wrote yesterday on the site - Turbomek turkeys are licensed at home.

        It turns out that we can also buy engines from our helicopters for them, bypassing ssanktsii ???

          Not. In Bangalore, the Turbomekhi plant operates. He is French-Hindu. Without the approval of the head office, they will not deliver anything to third countries.

      The question is, of course, interesting ...

      The custodians can close their eyes for the sake of business ... It seems to be Russian helicopters, and India buys the engines ... However, who knows that they will wander into their heads tomorrow or the day after tomorrow or will the black dad order them ??? And can India stay on beans when instead of business the copper pipes of politics sing ...

    So far, as I understand it, these are just intentions. But the intentions are interesting and significant. Wait and see. Give 400 helicopters!

    Well, it was not planned for its engines. 226 was originally made for other people's motors. Basic and "A" for Alison, "T" for Turbomeka. It was originally designed as a civil one, so there were no requirements for engine localization, and even in 1997.
    Well, since Kamov gets a contract with the Indian Hindustan Aeronautics Limited, which carries out licensed assembly of both our fighters and French helicopters, the issue with the motors can be solved quite simply: our territory.

    But in general, they take envy - 400 helicopters ...

    And then "interesting" thoughts come to mind: well, everything is clear with China, not today or tomorrow (in the epoch-making chronology) it is preparing to fight for world domination ...

    But India is driving so cool with weapons? It’s just that Pakistan doesn’t smell ...

    My personal fantasy: If only India would make its former metropolis Naglia a colony of its own ...
