Russian Defence Expert Ruslan Pukhov has suggested that post-war, Russia should consider procuring defence electronics and components from India, citing India’s advancements in indigenous defence manufacturing as significant. He pointed out India’s capabilities in avionics, radars, and electronic warfare systems as complementary to Russia’s needs, particularly given its current supply chain constraints due to Western sanctions. This indicates a growing recognition of India’s rising profile in global defence manufacturing, positioning it as an attractive partner for high-tech components. Such collaboration could enhance India’s role in the international defence landscape while supporting Russia’s search for alternative sources beyond traditional markets.
