The packages will provide long-term sustainment support for India&#8217;s M777A2 Ultra-Light Howitzers and AH-64E Apache attack helicopters, according to notifications issued by the US Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The proposed sales, recently notified to the US Congress, focus on logistics, maintenance, training, and technical support rather than the supply of new major defence equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The larger package, valued at <strong>$230 million<\/strong>, is intended to provide long-term sustainment support for India&#8217;s fleet of M777A2 Ultra-Light Howitzers. The package includes spare parts, repair and return services, technical assistance, training, field service representatives, depot-level maintenance capabilities, and related logistics support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In its policy justification, the Pentagon said the proposed sale would strengthen the strategic partnership between the United States and India while enhancing the security of a major defence partner in the Indo-Pacific region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis proposed sale will support the foreign policy and national security objectives of the United States by helping to strengthen the US-Indian strategic relationship and improve the security of a major defense partner,\u201d the Pentagon stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Pentagon further noted that the support package would improve India&#8217;s ability to address current and future security challenges, strengthen homeland defence, and deter regional threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The principal contractor for the M777A2 support package is <strong>BAE Systems<\/strong>, headquartered in Cumbria, United Kingdom. The US government clarified that implementation of the package would not require the deployment of additional US government personnel or contractor representatives to India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a separate notification, the United States approved a <strong>$198.2 million<\/strong> follow-on support package for India&#8217;s AH-64E Apache attack helicopters. The package includes engineering support, logistics services, technical data, publications, personnel training, and other programme support services required for sustaining Apache operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The principal contractors for the Apache support package are <strong>Boeing<\/strong> and <strong>Lockheed Martin<\/strong>, two of America&#8217;s leading defence manufacturers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the Pentagon, the proposed sales will have no adverse impact on US defence readiness and are expected to enhance India&#8217;s defence preparedness and operational capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The notifications also emphasised that neither package involves Major Defence Equipment (MDE), and no offset agreements are currently associated with the proposed sales. Both programmes will be funded through India&#8217;s national resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">India and the United States have significantly expanded defence ties over the past two decades. Bilateral defence trade has grown from negligible levels in 2008 to over <strong>$20 billion<\/strong>, while cooperation has deepened through joint military exercises, defence technology initiatives, and logistics agreements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The latest approvals are seen as another step toward strengthening the strategic defence partnership between the two countries amid evolving security challenges in the Indo-Pacific region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Washington\/New Delhi: In a significant boost to India-US defence cooperation, the United States has approved two proposed defence support packages for India worth a combined $428.2 million.
