Israel is preparing to share its most treasured military secrets with India as part of a deepened strategic alliance, it has been reported.
According to media reports, Israel might agree to share key technological components of Iron Dome (and related systems like Iron Beam) under a "Make in India" style arrangement to integrate them into India's planned multi-layer air defence network, including Mission Sudarshan Chakra.
However, nothing is officially signed yet the deal is still speculative and in the negotiation phase, with technology transfer expected to be the focus rather than an off-the-shelf system delivery.
If finalised, this could significantly boost India's short-range defence capabilities against rockets, missiles and drones while strengthening long-term strategic ties with Israel.
A key element of the defence pact is cooperation in "horizon scanning", a strategic mechanism designed to improve long-term defence preparedness. According to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), the initiative will strengthen strategic foresight, risk assessment, and technology planning through joint research, capacity building, and artificial intelligence-driven tools.

Mixed feelings about this, India is kind of a basket case politically and internationally.
BIG MISTAKE.
Defensive. Points to China/Pakistan. That works for us.
Bad idea. India is the next China.
Yeah, and India knows it and that's why they want their own Iron Dome.
Concur
I watched a video clip which mentioned patriot missiles cost ~$4M a piece while Iran drones are about ~$30K. It is cheaper to fight the drones on the ground or before they are even manufactured.
Israel has shared US tech with others pretty freely, as I’ve previously read.
Against US contract requirements, I may add.
That’s whacked.
India is FIVE TIMES BIGGER DEMOCRACY than any other democracy in the world. Think hard before posting.
but India is best buds with Russia
Since we have brought around 5 million Indian guys here to the USA to replace nearly all our tech workers. India is going to need as much help as possible.
Interesting.
Your tax dollars at work...
India is the Kingdom of scammers.
Big mistake.
Stupid
Israel can do whatever they want.
If we let them take advantage of us they will and they are
What’s the US taxpayers’ cut of this deal?
FYI-—From 2011 to 2021, the United States contributed a total of $1.6 billion US tax dollars to subsidize Israel’s Dome defense system.
Another $1 billion US tax dollars was finagled out of the obedient US Congress in 2022.
yes but that’s always been the case and we don’t seem to care.
