The Industry is further energized with the ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan’ along
with the recent easing of FDI regulations in the defence sector, as a strategic
direction to future. With proactive and industry friendly policies (DPEEP) and
procedures (DAP), tax incentivisation (lower tax rates for new manufactur-
ing companies), labour reforms and reform in company Law in quick suc-
cession, promoting acquisition of indigenous defence goods by prioritizing
Indigenous offerings, all in place and having articulated a target of achieving
a USD25 billion defence industry by 2025, India is has provided the required
impetus not only to indigenise its own market but also significantly contrib-
ute towards the growth of its share in the global defence market.
Over the years, Israel has played a pivotal role as a trustworthy partner to the
Indian armed forces and Indian Industry by sharing their world-renowned in-
novations, technologies, and expertise in the defence sector. With leadership
level engagement by both countries, with convergence of mutual goals the
relationship is moving on a steady path of friendship, unshackling the scope
for collaboration in the defence and aerospace sector, by their respective
Industries. While much has happened, much more needs to be explored and
facilitated through continued engagement.
Today, with the ability of the Indian industry to pursue frugal innovation
coupled with the technology inputs and product maturity of Israeli offerings,
both countries and its Industries have great potential to take this partnership
to a much higher level.

• It is applicable in case where procurement is not feasible due to time
constraint, or the asset/capability is needed for a specific time or smaller
quantities. It would also be applicable in cases where service life lease
rentals are a better option compared to a one-time acquisition cost.
• This process will:
— obviate the delays in procurement of equipment
— address the budget constraints for capital procurements
— help to gain experience for operational exploitation of equipments.

The Barak-8 missile or the Surface-to-Air Missile Defence system offers a complete defence against various
airborne threats. Complemented by a state-of-the-art multi-mission radar, flexible control and command sys-
tem, and two-way data link, Barak-8 can engage multiple targets at the same time during day and night in all
weather conditions. As a versatile performer, this missile can defend against any fixed wing aircraft, helicop-
ter, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), helicopters, anti-ship missiles, ballistic missile and cruise missiles.
India and Israel are expected to get large multi-billion orders for the missiles. In addition to Israel and India
other countries around the world have signed up to procure the advanced system. This will provide a signifi-
cant boost to the defence manufacturing industries of both the countries.
