Albert Einstein once said "I know not what weapons will be used to fight the third world war, but the one after that will be fought with sticks and stones"
Really, it's just a logical progression for these two emerging economic dynamos. Both are merely looking out for their interests. I find some parallels to the development of aircraft technologies both before and during WWI. The whole invention of the fighter-plane was to shoot down an enemies' observation capability, ie. observation balloons and photo-reconnaissance aircraft. After a modest beginning with pilots shooting at each other with revolvers and sling shots, it wasn't long until the fighter became a sophisticated tool of aerial warfare.
I can understand why India would want to protect it's burgeoning communications satellite capability. They are making a mint in the area of telecommunications services. Call any computer or cell phone 1-800-I need help and you are likely to be talking to a Hindi person, as so many international companies use their quite affordable services. I should take measures to protect this business worth billions if I were one in charge of such things.

Onasander...the general must neither be so undecided that he entirely distrusts himself, nor so obstinate as not to think that anyone can have a better idea...for such a man...is bound to make many costly mistakes

i basically consider India to be part of the Anglosphere, so I say more power to them.

We (India) always seem to think there is an imminent threat from China...though not as much as pakistan... i guess we cant afford to fall too much behind China...

Re: Indian army wants military space program
Understandable. I know this is off subject a bit, but why doesn't India just crush Pakistan? It's quite evident that they are harboring terrorists and allowing the Madrasas to preach their particular brand of hatred for all things not muslim. Is it the difficulty of the terrain? The Strength of Pakistinian forces? Surely it can't be that the Indian army does not outnumber and outclass that of Pakistan?
