India investment in Defense Industry - Opportunities, Drivers, Growth !!! Pukkapartners Insights

In the BrahMos, India holds a highly effective, medium-range supersonic cruise missile. Alas, China possesses cruise missiles with larger range and similar speeds, and China’s anti-ship ballistic missiles have relatovely longer ranges and speeds. The Indian Ocean has relatively shorter ranges compared with the Pacific, there is no need for anti-ship ballistic missiles in India; however, the longer-range supersonic and hypersonic cruise missiles could permit Indian missile shooters to attack Chinese border, thus helping counterbalance India’s numerical disadvantage in defense assets. These trends indicate that India should accelerate and boost its investments in lengthening the range of the BrahMos and fostering the longer-range Nirbhay cruise missile.

India should acquire more undersea systems, particularly air-independent diesel-electric attack submarines that are relative to surface vessels.

There has been sufficient historical indication since at least World War I that submarines can let a weaker naval power to prevent even a dominant naval opponent. There are a few navies that have pursued undersea warfare as a key strategy. India’s ranking of surface vessels over submarines is thus in-line with historical standards. Partly, this decision stems from the differing uses of submarines and surface vessels. Submarines are exceptional weapons to help a defensive strategy of sea rejection, whereas surface vessels can support an aggressive strategy of sea control. Surface vessels also serve important peacetime and crisis functions as overt signals of capability and intent in ways that submarines cannot.
