DEFENCE PSUs LIKELY TO BE MAJOR DRAW AT ELECTRONICS SUMMIT

defBangalore: Electronics production in the country’s Defence sector touched Rs. 13,800 crore during 2013-14 and is expected to grow over 15 per cent this year, said Electronic Industries Association of India (ELCINA) President Subhash Goyal.

 

The production of strategic electronics stood at Rs. 12,000 crore in 2012-13 and has been growing steadily from Rs. 5,700 crore in 2007-08 to Rs. 9,000 crore during 2010-11.

ELCINA has been holding the strategic electronics summit (SES) since 2010. This year it is being held in Bangalore on July 30 and 31.

 

The SES brings all stakeholders together on one platform to enable a better understanding of Defence requirements. The summit also aims to facilitate the creation of indigenous capabilities and encourage R&D in electronic equipment towards greater self-reliance.

 

This year’s SES is likely to witness a large participation of Defence PSUs, including HAL, Bharat Electronics Ltd, Electronics Corporation of India Ltd and Bharat Dynamics Ltd.

 

Top scientists and officials from DRDO Labs and some of the best private sector companies are coming together to share opportunities and take on challenges that need to be overcome amid expectations of a liberalised policy regime under the new Government. According to Goyal, the SES will highlight the new Defence production and offset policies and encourage new investments to develop strategic strengths. He said “the Government has rightly allowed 49 per cent FDI in Defence; this will result in greater access to new technologies and pave the way for global majors to invest in India.”

 

ELCINA Secretary-General Rajoo Goel said the summit has successfully created awareness about opportunities in this sector.

 

We involve small and medium enterprises, which face entry barriers such as high investments in R&D and long gestation periods before user acceptance. SMEs lack the resources to break such barriers and need Government support to become strong players in the sector.

 

With a new Government at the Centre, the expectations of the local industry should be met, which will result in reversing the trend of 70 per cent imports and 30 per cent indigenous production. The Government has stated clearly its intent of ensuring growth of indigenous Defence manufacturing in its policy roadmap.

ARMY PLANS TO EXTEND SHORT SERVICE COMMISSION ‘TO MAKE IT MORE ATTRACTIVE’

 

The Indian Army’s Short Service Commission (SSC) will now be made longer in the hope of making it more attractive. The government is actively considering a proposal to give SSC officers the option of working for 18 years. The move is also aimed at addressing the problem of a shortage of officers, particularly in the lower ranks.

 

The tenure of SSC officers at the moment is 10 years, which is extendable by four years. The army will now give these officers an option of re-employment for another four years.

 

Through the new initiative, an SSC officer will have the choice to remain in service for 18 years. After re-employment, the officer will continue to enjoy the same rank and respect but with a downgraded pay-scale, as is the standard norm.

 

Most of the Short Service Officers retire at the rank of lieutenant colonel. They are not eligible for post-retirement benefits, which can be availed only after completing 20 years of service.

 

The shortage of officers has been a major problem in the armed forces. The Army was short of 8,544 officers as of January 1. The shortfall in the other ranks was 16,597 as on April 1, 2014.

 

The shortage of officers has been decreasing steadily in the past four years because of the introduction of several measures.

Extending the tenure of SSC officers from 10 to 14 years was one such move. Most of the shortage of officers is in the junior ranks while the higher ranks are witnessing stagnation. Apart from extending the tenure of service to 18 years, the government is considering other proposals like granting post-retirement benefits to SSC officers.

 

The SSC scheme had lost its sheen in the absence of post-employment benefits. One measure in making the service more attractive is allowing women officers to command units. This is also a step in the direction of giving permanent commissions to SSC officers.

 

Several SSC officers have struggled to get employment after leaving the army. The common refrain is that somebody who has given his prime years for the nation should be adequately compensated and rehabilitated.

 

An officer usually has to start from scratch in the civilian world after hanging up the uniform, which is not an easy task as most of the officers lack specialisation.

 

Even within the army, there have been complaints that SSC officers face discrimination in day-to-day functioning, and many commanding officers treat them differently. The entire SSC scheme is on the verge of collapse and it was crucial to resurrect it, sources said.

IS INDIA READY FOR THE NEXT KARGIL?

 

New Delhi: The 15th anniversary of India’s victory over Pakistan Army in the Kargil War was celebrated with much fervor and passion across many parts of India. Even as India’s Defence Minister paid floral tributes to the martyrs and announced that the Government is in the process of finalizing a place for the construction of an iconic National War Memorial, one lingering question that should be given due importance is whether India has finally seen the back of the Kargil kind of saga.

 

The lingering questions….

Can one completely rule out the possibility of another Kargil War? Is it necessary that the next Kargil would happen in Kargil? Is India prepared enough to make sure that the toll of the next Kargil War would not be that high and that it would be nipped in the bud? Can one entirely rule out the possibility of the next Kargil type siege being orchestrated from within the country by external elements? Fact of the matter is that no one can rule out any of the possibilities.

 

On the positive side ::

Over the last fifteen years, strength and arsenal of Indian Armed Forces have been increased considerably. The Indian Air Force now have around 190 frontline Su-30 MKI aircrafts and a whole new array of modern helicopters like new generation Mi-17 medium lift helicopters and Dhruv Advanced Light Helicopters,, Indian Navy has added a large number of patrol ships, destroyers and frigates to its fleet while the Indian Army has tried to contain the void created by complete lack of acquisition of the new artilleries with induction of Smerch and Pinaka type Multiple Rocket Launch Systems (MRLS).

 

Likewise Indian Army and Air Force now has a sizeable fleet of drones which keep constant vigil on vulnerable areas of borders in addition to support from satellite imaging. Meanwhile India has worked hard to reduce the mobilization period of its army to a mere 48 hours which is a commendable achievement and worked well master its Cold Start Doctrine. India is also augmenting the strength of the army with addition of a whole new Mountin strike Corps with 90,000 soldiers at a cost of a whopping Rs 65,000 crore.

 

On the flip side…

Yet one cannot at the same time deny that there are also major issues that continue to plague the Indian Armed Forces including gargantuan delay in acquisition of many critical equipment including light utility helicopters, combat aircrafts of the MMRCA category, critical artilleries which have not been inducted for decades and even something as basic as new generation infantry assault rifles.

 

On the flip side there are also issues related to India’s War Wastage Reserve (WWR) or the amount of ammunition it has to fight a war. Reports in media earlier this year indicated that India’s WWR has reduced to less than half of what ideally it should be (http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Army-running-low-on-ammunition/articleshow/32569909.cms) with the Army not even having enough ammunition reserve to even fight a war for 20 days even when it ideally should have ammunition to fight 40 days of intense war to the least.

 

The loopholes, the lacunae and the threats in East and South ::

While one cannot deny the fact that the entire grid along the Line of Control with Pakistan has been considerably strengthened, the incident of 26/11 as well as the increasing intransigence of the Chinese Army along India’s eastern borders raise issues about how the shape and location of the next Kargil War would be.

 

The incident of 26/11 vindicated that what was presumed to be an impregnable sea border has now proved to be permeable. Even though efforts are being made to considerably augment the capacity of Indian Coast Guard, loopholes do remain and that cannot be ignored.

 

In the same league, Southern India which was always considered to be out of bound of radical terror groups, is now witnessing real time threat from terror groups from inside as well as from neighboring Sri Lanka and especially Maldives which has evolved as a dangerous hub of radical extremism. Also, there are serious apprehensions of the existence of several sleeper cells of Laskhkar and other terror groups in India which are manned by Pakistani nationals living in disguise here.

 

A volatile Pakistan continues to be a major nemesis ::

The situation across the border in Pakistan continues to be extremely grave with on one side Tehreek e Taliban’s assault in Karachi and their near stranglehold on the Sindh province is a real cause of worry for India. Given the demonstration of firepower and audacious attacks they executed on Pakistani Airports and military bases, it would be naïve to presume that they would never set their eyes on India.

 

The ISIS factor and the threat of radical jihad in India ::

Likewise, the sudden resurgence of ISIS in Syria and Iraq, termed as the deadliest terror organization of the world today, is also a major threat to India. Their influence, one should remember, is not just restricted to Middle East only. Recent reports about a large number of Indian Muslim youths having already either gone to Iraq to fight for ISIS (http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Tamil-Nadu-youth-joins-ISIS-family-recalls-his-journey-into-insurgency/articleshow/38771536.cms) or are planning to go, comes as a portentous news for the secular fabric of India’s multicultural society.

 

Already it is a known fact that India is in the scheme of things of ISIS so far as their sinister global ambition is concerned. Reports have also emerged about an alleged letter written by Maulana Syed Salman Hussaini Nadvi of the Darul Uloom Nadwa, Lucknow (http://www.firstpost.com/world/daft-and-dangerous-muslim-scholars-plan-for-a-militia-to-fight-global-jihad-1634307.html) wherein it was alleged that he has sought help from the Saudi Government to help him fund the creation of a 5 lakh strong Jihadi force in India to fight for ISIS.

 

Whether this allegation is authentic or not is subject to scrutiny but one cannot deny the fact that a certain proportion of support does exist in India for ISIS and its success in establishing Caliphate in Middle East. Combining this with the existing threat from SIMI, Indian Mujahideen as well as cross border terror organizations, one has to keep in mind that both the recurrence of a Kargil type incident or a 26/11 kind of a siege is extremely possible but the dimension of either need not be same as their previous occurrence.

 

The appalling condition of Indian Police- Is it prepared to take on threats from inside?

Reality is that India’s Army, BSF or the naval forces are still better prepared to deal with an assault from across the border, but the condition of the internal security forces and especially the state level police forces is grim. There are serious doubts about their ability to provide a credible first line of defense if any major eventuality erupt from inside.

 

Nearly six years after the happening of the 26/11 incident, ground realities so far as the ill preparedness of India’s police forces have not changed much. Further, one cannot also deny the Maoist factor and the possibility of them resorting to major strike leading to a major siege of cities, either on their own or in alliance with other forces inimical to India. The issue of links between Maoists and ISI is not an alien one.

 

It is therefore critical for India to have a new architecture of national security by combining the external and internal security threats and develop a holistic approach towards dealing with the next Kargil or 26/11.

 

The next Kargil War need not happen in Kargil ::

Given the worsening security situation both inside the country and in the immediate and distant neighborhood, the issue of the happening of the next Kargil or 26/11 is perhaps not a question of if but when. Developing a credible deterrence therefore is the only way out. The next Kargil War need not happen in Kargil just as the next 26/11 may not necessarily happen in Mumbai. India needs to be prepared for all kinds of eventualities.

HOW A SURFACE-TO-AIR MISSILE WORKS

 

Developing accurate missile guidance systems has been a quest of military powers since World War II. To come up with the most lethal attack weapon, defence researchers around the world have experimented with myriad technologies ranging from heat-seekers or infrared (IR) sensors, radar systems and thermal imaging to laser. Surface-to-air missiles (SAM) have again caught the world’s attention after the tragic crash of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 in Ukraine.

 

Heat-seeking missiles have two major components. A radar system—which can either have a single or multiple radars—is stationed on the ground. On the top of that, the missile has a heat-seeking system, such as an infrared sensor, on its tip, which can identify infrared rays emitted by the targeted plane.

 

Last month, India’s Defence Research and Development Organization (DRDO) successfully tested the indigenously developed Akash, a mid-range SAM guided by a 3D-central acquisition radar with the capability to intercept targets up to 25km.

 

Its weapon command and control system identifies aircraft as friendly or hostile based on an IFF (identify friend or foe) unit and many other aspects. Once a plane is identified as hostile, information about its initial location is relayed to the missile through a signal, so the missile is shot in the direction identified by the radar.

 

Even as the radar sends the missile information on the target’s initial location, the target itself is moving. Its coordinates change continuously. “These missiles are intelligent systems that can adjust, readjust their position based on the continuous inputs provided by the radar,” said Ajey Lele, a senior research fellow at the Institute for Defence Studies and Analyses (Idsa), a New Delhi-based think tank.

 

“Once shot in a predetermined direction, a heat-seeking missile can do a self-course correction of its trajectory based on the radar signals sent from the ground.” IR rays are electromagnetic radiations that are emitted depending upon the temperature of a particular object—the hotter the object, the stronger the infra red radiation.

 

Since the temperature at high altitudes, such as 32,000 ft, is significantly low, radiations emitted by the target are immediately spotted by the missile. Combining the information from radar and IR sensors, a heat-seeking missile is able to pinpoint the target.

 

“The tracking radar tracks the trajectories of the missile as well as the target object. The missile gets coded information from the radar guiding it to reach the target,” said Ravi Kumar Gupta, a senior scientist at DRDO. Finally, after it has locked on to the target, there is a predetermined proximity fed into the missile’s on board computer.

 

“As soon as the missile comes within that proximity, a ‘proximity fuse’ gets activated and the warhead in the missile explodes to destroy the target,” Gupta added.

IAF LCA SQUADRON AWAITS FIRST AIRCRAFT AFTER FRESH DELAY

 

NEW DELHI: More than seven months after it was cleared for being flown by IAF pilots, the entry of the first LCA Tejas in its newly-raised squadron in Bangalore is still awaited as the project has been delayed yet again.

 

IAF has raised its 45 Squadron at Bangalore for allowing its pilots to fly the aircraft and was supposed to induct the first Tejas Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) in March this year.

 

But the schedule has now been shifted to coming September, sources said here.

 

The delay is also understood to have pushed backed the Final Operational Clearance (FOC) of the aircraft from December this year to March 2015.

 

Flight manuals, the aircraft manual and other basic documents required by pilots to operate the aircraft are also not yet ready, the sources added.

 

The aircraft received its Initial Operational Clearance ( IOCBSE -0.72 %) last year on December 20 after which Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL) was supposed to supply two Limited Series Production LCA’s to IAF, sources said.

 

The LCA programme, cleared in August 1983 at a cost of Rs 560 crore to replace the ageing MiG-21s in IAF’s combat fleet, has missed several deadlines.

 

Asked about the delays, a HAL spokesperson said that as far as the production of LCAs was concerned, “HAL is on the right path and there is no delivery issue at this stage.”

 

He said the HAL LCA Project Group has now been upgraded to a full-fledged division to look after production in a systematic way with more investments.

 

“The new initiative will help enhance the rate of production and reduce production cycle-times by incorporating several advanced defence aerospace technologies,” the spokesperson said.

HAL TO FORM SKILL DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL FOR AEROSPACE SECTOR

 

Bangalore: Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd, along with the Bangalore Chambers of Industry and Commerce and the Society of Indian Aerospace Technologies and Industries, has floated a non-profit organisation for developing skills in the aerospace and aviation sector.

 

RK Tyagi, Chairman, HAL, will head the governing council of this organisation, which will be registered soon.

 

The council will comprise members from aviation majors, airport operators and academia. Invitations have been sent to Air India, Jet Airways, Spice Jet, Indigo, GVK Group, Tata, ISRO, and NAL to join this endeavour.

 

“The council is mandated to train approximately four lakh persons over next 10 years in 90 different trades identified for better employment opportunities, improving employability and bridging the gaps in skills required in this sector,” Tyagi said.

 

The broader objective of this collaboration is to aggregate the skill requirements of the industry and develop best practices that can be introduced in the domestic skill development space.

 

This skill council will also build capacity for training delivery. It will regulate skill development activities in the industry, including the creation of National Occupational Standards, qualifications, training curriculum and assessment criteria.

IAF RECEIVES 6TH C-17 GLOBEMASTER III AIRCRAFT

 

The Indian Air Force received its sixth C-17 Globemaster III on Monday. The arrival of the new addition to the IAF was recieved by the Defence Minister Arun Jaitley who visited the Palam Airbase in New Delhi and familiarised himself with the aircraft.

 

The Chief of the Air Staff, Air Chief Marshal Arup Raha conducted the minister through the aircraft and briefed him on the strategic capability and role of the aircraft. The minister was further given a detailed brief by the Commanding Officer Group Captain BS Reddy.

 

The government accorded approval to buy 10 C-17 Globemaster III along with associated equipment for the IAF in June 2011. The first of the 10 aircraft touched down in India on June 18, 2013 and the delivery of all 10 is expected to be completed by December 2014.

 

The government accorded approval to buy 10 C-17 Globemaster III along with associated equipment for the IAF in June 2011.

 

This aircraft will enhance the operational potential of the IAF with its payload carriage and performance (about 75 tonnes) and would augment the strategic reach (about 4500 Kms) of the nation during operations, disaster relief or any similar mission.

 

The ceremony was attended by Air Officer Commanding-in-Chief, Western Air Command (WAC) Air Marshal SS Soman and other senior IAF and Ministery of Defence officials.

INDIA TO SELL PARTIAL STAKE IN HAL

 

NEW DELHI — India will sell 10 percent of its 100 percent stake in monopoly military aircraft producer Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd. (HAL), a senior Defence Ministry official said. All formalities have been cleared and the 10 percent stake will be put on sale by October, the official said.

 

HAL, with an annual turnover of US $2.53 billion, is the country’s sole producer of military aircraft. It plans to use money from the sale to finance a $5 billion modernization of the company, said the MoD official.

 

The government, however, has no plans to privatize HAL by selling over 50 percent of its stake in the company, the MoD official clarified.

 

HAL needs extra funds to add manufacturing facilities to produce the fighter aircraft that will be selected by the Indian Air Force for its $12 billion Medium Multi-Role Combat Aircraft program. The Rafale has been downselected and contract negotiations are underway.

 

HAL has also tied up with Sukhoi to develop a fifth-generation fighter aircraft for which HAL will need to set up separate production lines. HAL will need another production line for serial production of the homemade Light Combat Aircraft, which is likely to be inducted this year.

 

Currently, HAL is the license producer of the British-made Hawk advanced jet trainer and the Russian-made Sukhoi fighter aircraft.

 

HAL also manufacturers helicopters, aircraft and UAVs, and is developing an indigenous light utility helicopter.

CHINA COLONEL ASKED GEN. SINGH ABOUT ARUNACHAL, TIBET

 

Army Chief Gen. Bikram Singh faced an awkward moment recently during his visit to China earlier this month when a Chinese PLA lady-officer of the rank of Colonel asked him some searching questions on the Indian stand on Arunachal Pradesh and the Tibetan cause.

 

The incident occurred just after Gen. Singh had completed his address at the Chinese National Defence University at Beijing. Gen. Singh was only the second foreigner to be invited to speak at the Chinese NDU which is administered by the People’s Liberation Army (PLA).

 

The Army Chief was taken aback when a Chinese lady-officer raised the issue of Arunachal Pradesh. The Chinese regard parts of Arunachal Pradesh as Chinese territory and refer to it as South Tibet. In response, Gen. Singh promptly retorted: “As an Indian, I am of the view that Arunachal Pradesh is an integral part of India.”

 

But the Chinese lady-officer did not stop there. She also raised the issue of Tibet.

Gen. Singh replied that the Indian government does not allow any political activity on the Tibet issue from Indian soil and that this has been India’s consistent stand.

 

But the incident has raised several eyebrows. Defence-watchers say the Chinese PLA lady-officer could not have asked these questions without the directions of the Chinese military top brass since the question was posed to a top-ranking visiting foreign dignitary. But sources said the Chinese political and military leadership was extremely courteous and hospitable to Gen. Singh during the visit.

 

The Chinese are extremely sensitive on the issue of Arunachal Pradesh and protest the visit of every Indian political leader to the state.

 

India, however, regards Arunachal as its integral part and is substantially boosting defence infrastructure in the Northeast.

China is also equally sensitive on the Tibet issue even as India’s stand is that the Dalai Lama is an honoured guest but that no political activity on the Tibet issue will be allowed from Indian soil.

 

Incidentally, the Modi government was extremely keen that the visit of Gen. Singh to China take place on schedule even though Gen. Singh is to retire on July 31 this year.

US, INDIA LOOK TOWARDS RE-ENERGISING TIES

 

India and US are trying to re-energise their relationship, driven by closer defence, business and energy ties, as secretary of state John Kerry accompanied by commerce secretary Penny Pritzke arrive in New Delhi on July 30 for strategic dialogue as well as to touch base with the Narendra Modi government.

 

Four years after President Barack Obama termed India-US ties as one of the defining partnerships of the 21st century, the ties are yet to match the billing, and a slew of issues have dampened the ties in the last years of the UPA-II.

 

While hopes on imparting a new momentum to the ties are high, the two sides have a lot of ground to cover, with differences persisting over India’s nuclear liability law as well as its position on intellectual property rights.

 

Kerry will chair the India-US strategic dialogue with external affairs minister Sushma Swaraj.

 

The US has been pitching for greater defence ties with India and now, with the FDI cap on defence production raised, the two countries are set to take the next steps in “co-production and co-development” and taking the relationship beyond a buyer-seller relationship.

 

Though the US would like to have their firms have controlling stakes, on the agenda for the meeting will be the next-generation javelin missile, as well as an unmanned aerial vehicle programme.

 

India is also looking at greater cooperation in shale gas. The US is keen to expand its export basket to India along with investment in the hopes that the Indian economy will re-vitalise under PM Modi.

 

However, the US has been nudging India on the nuclear liability law, which has strict supplier-liability clause. The US supplier firms have so far cited the huge insurance they have had to take, saying it will reflect badly in their books besides raising concerns about the Indian liability being inconsistent with the international liability regimes.

 

There have been huge differences between India and US on the intellectual property issues and “protectionism”. The US believes India falls short in protecting US patents, copyrights and other intellectual property rights.
