India intends to purchase C-400 complexes from Russia, long-range Tu-22М3 bombers and other weapons

According to the official stand of the program “Make in India”, located at the Innoprom industrial exhibition in Yekaterinburg, the Indian authorities would like to purchase a number of weapons from Russia, including the 12 C-400 “Triumph” and 4 bomber Tu-22М3, broadcast Interfax.

In addition to the “Triumphs” and bombers, India intends to acquire “80 Mi-17 helicopters and six Il-76 helicopters converted into airborne early warning and control vehicles (AEWS) using Falcon Israeli radars”.

India's plans to produce over a thousand on its territory are also reported. tanks T-90S and 200 Ka-226 helicopters.

In addition, the Indian military wants to lease (with subsequent purchase) "two nuclear submarines" Akula II "(project 971" Pike-B ").

And the publication of Defense News, citing its source in the Indian Navy, announced that Russia was proposing to order the construction of its own aircraft carrier Storm.

“The offer was made last week,” said the source.

According to him, “the aircraft carrier project (23000E Storm) is being developed by the design office of the Federal State Unitary Enterprise" Krylov State Research Center ". The interlocutor expressed doubt that the purchase of an aircraft carrier would be funded by the Indian government.

Industry must work and not stand idle. Let them sell, otherwise the USA or China will do it for us. This will provide funds for our workers in the factories, the development of scientific and technical progress and defense industry. India is not our enemy, our interests overlap little.
With the proceeds, it will be possible to build twice as many C-400 and TU-23MZ versions for the Russian Federation.

Technology transfer is our trump card in military cooperation with India - no one else will. Another thing is that for this it is necessary to bargain from them the maximum possible and develop their own defense and weapons at the same time.

But are they really transferred from the fleet? Chakra - unfinished Amur plant. Another boat lies there with 42% readiness for about 20 years. Do you need it yourself? so finish it.

One made a mistake and away we go ... Tu-22M3 ... I'm afraid Beijing will be very disappointed if Moscow subscribes to the Tu-22M3. It is clear that the Indians use it (4 pcs.) Under nuclear weapons - the PRC has nothing of the kind. And the Pakistanis will be unhappy, and this whole thing will lead to a further arms race in the Pakistan-China-India triangle. Is it necessary for the Russian Federation? Yes, financially it is profitable; but how will this affect the SCO, BRICS, Greater Eurasia, etc.? There is something to ponder. There are agreements with the PRC on a wide-body aircraft and a heavy helicopter - the Indians clearly do not want to give in, so they cast a fishing rod. We’ll have to get out of it somehow, because it’s clear that we don’t need to strain between Beijing and India. Although, judging by the nuclear submarines, they will find a way out. No, well, they came up beautifully ... rent. You can’t sell, but you can rent it - I wonder who came up with !? . It is clear that if the Indians are pressed, then they will apply it with all the consequences ... rent .
They have a BrahMos missile, nuclear weapons, now there’s a supersonic carrier. Nuclear submarines, even for rent, but there are also ballistic missiles to a potential enemy. Here you have the whole nuclear triad in India. And the Kremlin understands this. Moscow’s response will tell us which India the Russian authorities want to see. Will Beijing and Islamabad smoke nervously aside, or will they start commenting now?
In principle, 4 used aircraft will not cost much, but many can drag a splinter. Is it worth it to start a game, maybe it just grew there. open the base at the expense of the Indians - can then everyone calm down?

AWT, hello, something doesn’t look like you, it’s probably the heat from you: Beijing will be clearly unhappy if the Russian Federation subscribes to the Delhi proposal. It seems that they themselves want to propose a military alliance to Moscow (Comrade Si's speech on 1.07.16).
On rent I remembered. The Americans leased 56 Minetmen-2 launch vehicles for the English. Nuclear submarine. The Yankees were forced to admit this under START-3 (2, I don’t remember) - then London threw a tantrum. The genie themselves were released from the bottle. If we talk about disarmament, then this should begin. And so, tomorrow with Comrade Kim can see something like that. Or those Saudis who will be fooled.

They gathered for themselves in the corners - they took everything away from naval aviation to Dalnaya and are now slowly modernizing it. Therefore, it can be transmitted to the Indians only to the detriment of their own Long-Range Aviation. In what, taking into account the current world situation, I somehow have little faith. I think the Indians, breaking down as always, will order the export version of the Su-34, it is 32 and will demand localization at home. And on the nuclear submarine, the Indians broke off, they wanted 885 the project "Ash", which we currently have in the ONLY copy. And they, as I understand it, are offered from the backlog in the Far East 971 - Pike B.

Do not confuse anything ??? More precisely, you confuse it. The Angles received sequentially the Polaris and Trident on their SSBNs, the last they changed their SSBNs as of now. Mine-mine units and the maximum that could be - a scam with missile defense. Well, the Yankees stated that they would put the second stage for anti-ballistic missiles in the position area, such as the upper stage.

[Kasym]

Yes, of course I got it with the Minetmen, but not so important. The cool thing is that the Indian nuclear triad is more powerful than the English one.
The fact of the matter is that for India the contract for carcasses may become the main (strategic) one. They can present the rest as partial load. Therefore, it is interesting how the Russian Federation wants to see India. How far will it go in military cooperation? And if he considers it necessary, then he will sell his used ones (and how not, if they fly to Syria). And we must assume that the Indians are well aware of the difference between the Su-34 and Tu-22M3.

Quote: Kasym

Well, the Angles from the triad left only SSBNs, and the rest is only tactical. They seem to have written off the aviation strags for a long time, well, "Volcanoes" after the Falklands, and I don’t remember anything from them, the Franks, yes - there was a triad with "Mirages" middle and positional area with medium mines. among the Indians, SSBNs have not yet danced, despite all their musicality. So while the ground and that average, so before the Angles, they ... well, they still need to take a step. Although .... the Angles are also tied with the Tridents at Uncle Syoma because of the okiyan.

And that’s why they fly because there are no superfluous - they frighten, but not spirits, but Evriopians of various Polish-Romanian-Baltic Baltic states, who have lost their temper because they can return to the former place of basing in the USSR - to Crimea.

And if you transfer the submarines, what are we left with? There are even fewer of them.

[silver_roman]

The Chinese have subsonic carcass analogs. Which is actually enough, given the location of countries. I understand that no one will sell the Tu-22M3 from the Air Force. In reserve there, they will reach the level and shove.
Isn’t it the same with Sharks? Dates seem to have been announced until 2020 if they sign, i.e. the boat will undergo modernization.
This is better than stuffing like leasing 885. It would not even be funny.
It is likely that ours are trying to get away from many projects, at least in terms of nuclear submarines.
This is the eternal scourge of the Soviet, and now the Russian Navy.

[Iline]

I think that the author of the article pulled the blanket over himself a little with the construction of the new Tu-22M3. Moreover, in the amount of only a few pieces. No one will restore production for such a quantity.
Most likely, it was about putting into operation and refinement, according to the customer’s whims, several Indian planes out of a huge amount of Tu-22M3 currently in storage with Indian money.
Moreover, Russia currently cannot afford it, and when it wants, it will want a newer aircraft instead of a worthy old man.

[alexmach]

God knows what condition they are in storage. In general, it would be possible to work out the "restoration" technology for Indian money, only this is surprising at the "do in India" stand

[Tektor]

I would look for those already written off with the expended resource for fatigue and replace all these loaded nodes with new ones, if this is technically possible. Would replace elements that have undergone erosion and corrosion - this is all more or less obvious. But what to do with engines and electronic warfare? We are restoring the production of NK-32M. Is this the only option? To restore the production of the Tu-22, naturally - with refueling, at the expense of the Indians - a very tempting thought, because it is simply indispensable in the north and in the open ocean, especially in light of the possibility of installing a powerful electronic warfare station on it.

I agree with everything, but only TU-23M3? Do they know how to build it in Russia? Production was stopped long ago, there are only those that are left in stock, they say there are 40 of them and there is nothing to replace them with. And there is nothing to change them either - they do not produce more aircraft of this class, the production of the TU-160 is just being restored, and what the outcome will be is not clear. Another thing is that without modernization they are not entirely clear what they are suitable for.

By the way, China also wanted to buy them, of course, also with project documentation. But is it just necessary to deploy strategic weapons?

Or do you not understand the situation around Russia, or are you doing it deliberately, to please our real enemy ??? There are still very few S-400s, but they are already on sale. Tu-22M3 are not produced at all. Really write off from combat units? And what in return?

Can I add?
With such orders, it may also have to expand production. And this is, first of all, high-paying jobs for our people.
Moreover, they sell only export versions of the systems. Those. "stitched". They do not threaten our planes in any way, even, God forbid, if there is a war
And you are right, this is the money for which we will build both the TU-22M3 and the S-400 or S-300B4 (they are even more afraid of it) and many other goodies already for OUR country.

Over the past two decades, the Indian economy has experienced stable growth. In the 1990s, foreign exchange reserves increased more than 7 times - up to 42,281 billion dollars in the 2000/2001 financial year. The 2000s were marked by a new spasmodic growth and again more than 7 times - up to $ 304,818 billion in the 2010/2011 financial year. So there are grandmas. I don’t understand anything else:

In fiscal 2010/11, exports totaled $ 250,5 billion, while imports totaled about $ 380,9 billion. The main exports (fiscal 2009/10) are machinery and equipment (21,4%), handicrafts (16,8%), chemicals (12,8%), food and agricultural raw materials (10,0%), ready-made clothes and textiles (8,1%). Main buyers (fiscal 2009/10): EU (20,2%), United States (10,9%)

That is, more than a fifth of exports are for machinery and equipment, most of the exports are for the EU and the USA. Not bad for a "cloudy mirror"! Pay attention to the steel production table. More of Russia is being produced. Besides, if gold and foreign exchange reserves are constantly growing, so there is an economy. India is not a rich country, but this is primarily due to the explosive population growth (higher than in China). However, they find a lot of money for weapons. I was primarily interested in their tank program. Why are they T -90, if they have been messing with "Arjun" for 40 years?

After all, they will not give it for nothing. And where to get funds for the development of the military-industrial complex? In addition, the Indians will be tied to Russia for a long time (repair, spare parts). And if you think, then they can easily order it from the Chinese, French, Yankees ....

[donavi49]

Well, it's just a list of interest, most likely. The TU-22M3Ms are quite tight, plus the Indians have no old boards and what to throw from it (especially with the fact that they assemble a light air Bramos - under the Su-30, then the Su-34 would block everything for them - especially since it the new building is being produced, and for the Indians, this is an opportunity to pull the board towards you and assemble from machine kits, like the Su-30).

Generally:
S-400 - they have long been interested.
Ka-226 - like already signed.
The second Shchuku-B is also there, but there are jambs with delivery, there is No. 519 at the Amur plant (about 40% readiness), but there to do and do it, plus you need to straighten the project, unlike Nerpa, the readiness for components is much lower, and many of which 20 years have not been produced. Hindus want fast, fast, but they got burned with Nerpa and for 8 years instead of 3 they don’t want to wait.

As for the aircraft carrier, they are already under construction - but it burns down from China, which, after the Varyag, has almost kicked out the hull of the second aircraft carrier in the 65kt type 001a. While Wyckrant is substantially smaller, sawing sluggishly for 10 years. Therefore they now want IAC II completely redo (before, it was an enlarged Wikrant) - that is, replace it with a new project.

[x.andvlad]

Now, if all the Indians want to buy from us, we would produce at the speed with which they want to buy, it would be even better.
And the publication of Defense News, citing its source in the Indian Navy, announced that Russia was proposing to order the construction of its own aircraft carrier Storm.
On the one hand, it’s good to have such a regular customer as the Indians, but on the other, maybe you need to build yourself first?

[Sars]

Very interesting! Where did the carcass come from? We will resume production, or will we give back from storage?

[cayman gene]

This post is a complete profanity. There is not even a link to the source of information. It seems that someone on the hangers is sprinkling all sorts of nonsense.

[donavi49]

It is extremely doubtful that the Tu-22M3 can be resumed, and KAPO can’t stand it, there they are trying to reanimate the Tu-160 and this is a higher priority program. Yes, and the NK-25 engines are discontinued, the main reason for the rather limited number of Tu-22M3 flying is a shortage of engine resources.

Then the interest of 4 sides - the resumption of production for the sake of 4 sides, it’s just the fantastic cost of the side.

From flying availability - after repair with modernization in which Tu-22M3IM.

The question is different, why? The Bramos Indians are taught to fly, and on the Su-30MKI. The X-22 cannot be sold to them - for the non-proliferation treaty, if they cut the range of 300 km, then it will become worse than Brahmos in everything. X-15 all the more not to sell. The rest 2 Su-30MKI / Su-34 with modern weapons, block the carcass.

Where did you get the idea that it's hard to reanimate the Tu-22? As far as I know, they even want to equip already built carcasses with engines from the Tu-160. And if they arrange the production of engines for 160, then they can be set to 22. And the design 22 seems to be easier than 160. And as for the Su-34, which may well replace the Tu-22, I agree with you.

[Wiruz]

Yes, no, obviously the second. Only I strongly doubt that the Indians will agree to build such a ship with us. Most likely they will ask for licensed production at their shipyards.

[donavi49]

They are concerned that the best friend in the Region, type 001a grew up before our eyes, and they are tortured by Wyrant for 10 years, while he is obviously weaker. Given that the software IAC II it will not be very soon (but really based on the Hindu pace to 30m) - they want something new, not an enlarged Wikrant, with catapults and possibly a reactor.

However, there is not much money. They went to the British to Prince and Queen Lisa to see the Americans and Ford, and of the Storm.

Why sell it right away? The last submarine handed over to the Indians for the Indians and finished. Or would it be better for her to lie unfinished at the Amur plant? Or was it necessary to dispose of the unfinished? The second submarine, about which was also an old unfinished building lying on the NEA without work. Do you need it yourself? so why have not yet completed for themselves?

With airplanes, it’s another matter - unlike the nuclear powered submarines, they are not building them in Russia yet and there are no new replacement models yet. But there is another question with them, but how much are they now generally in demand without modernization then?

To be honest, I did not know that those Pikes were unfinished. But the Tu-22M3, even without modernization, is very much in demand. And in which case they will still be in demand. Although nobody seems to prohibit their modernization. Just talking about their redundancy and uselessness reminds me of the dashing 90s. It is clear that such messages also check the public reaction of Russians.

It is difficult to believe that Russia, in the coming years, will be able to build a ship of this class, with even greater difficulty to believe that India will agree to build such a ship in Russia, because the Indians now want to build and produce everything themselves. But if this business burns out, then it will be a great leap in the development of our defense industry, and excellent preparation for the construction of aircraft carriers for the Russian fleet.

Yes, this is a feik, although for liberals like Kabarlin, this is an extra piece of butter in porridge. He already vomits from this feik. Russia is about to collapse.
This "aircraft carrier", naturally, exists exclusively in the form of a plastic model, since Russia has neither money nor technology to build it. That is, in fact, we are talking, with a high degree of probability, about an attempt to separate India by several billion, which will then disappear without a trace. Approximately how the Chinese billions for the "Power of Siberia" disappeared. Ilitka is in a hurry to grab one last thing from the heart, until everything collapsed.

Is it strange like that, after a 20-year break, the production of TU22M3 will be restored ??

[donavi49]

In the article, 4 cars are written - this is a transparent hint about the interest from the availability after repair.

The Tu-22M3 has two problems - there are no engines, they are not produced with 95, so the resources are being pulled. Well, there’s nowhere to renew - KAPO is busy with the Tu-160 national project and the second type simply will not pull.

Ah, well, the main one is in need. Especially for the Indians, who cannot get the X-22 because of the contract (and if you drain the fuel, it will be worse than the same Bramos), the X-15 too.

I don’t think that the carcasses will be built, rather they will be decommissioned and modernized under their technical specifications, with the replacement of the Tu-160M.
According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, after the 2023 of the year, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will receive at least three Tu-160М2 strategic bombers each year. In the meantime, the order for the Tu-160M - up to 50 cars.

But excuse me - what is bought for dollars / euros for the military-industrial complex in foreign markets? Moreover, now, during the period of sanctions. Wages began to pay workers in foreign currency? In my opinion, the Russian military-industrial complex is entirely in the ruble zone, and the currency is needed only for the purchase of various consumer goods, civilian electronics, cars, food, etc. Over the past few years, commodity circulation has fallen sharply - accordingly, currency losses should also fall. Energy, of course, also fell. But, is it really vseravno currency shortage and forced to sell the latest weapons?

you can’t forbid living curiously. There is nothing shortage for yourself and there’s nothing to replenish because the aircraft has been discontinued. In order to establish this very production, it takes years and even after production has been established we can produce a maximum of 1-2 per year.
Collaboration in the style of "What for us Tu-22, they are only a burden for the army's budget" instantly stopped after the operation in Syria. I am more than sure that the cost of the operation in Syria would have increased significantly if we had not had the Tu-22.
We have the same garbage with IL-76, which, after being transferred from Tashkent and modified to the level of IL-76MD-90A, is still not in the series. And they not only want to buy IL-76 but also for us to convert it to AWACS.
Weapons can be sold in two cases
1) when you yourself have its mass production and the army is fully provided.
2) when the weapons (airplane, submarine, ship) are outdated and not relevant + you have serial production of more modern weapons that will fill the hole in the defense left after the sale.

What the army turns into if everything is sold from it can be seen on a striking example of Ukraine.

Sludge - they bought tankers by the way, but with a new refueling system. They have an AWAC based on the Embraer ERJ 145. Now they want to combine the IL platform with even more powerful equipment, for the adult AWAC. At the same time, the supplier is not so critical, they calmly took Poseidon, for example, for the PLO, to replace the Il-38SD and the surviving Tu-142M.
