HYDERABAD: The joint venture between India's Defence Research and Development Organization (DRDO) and Israeli Aerospace Industry to manufacture Long Range Surface-to-Air Missile (LR SAM) and Medium Range Surface-to-Air Missile (MR-SAM) has turned out to be a non-starter.

The long range missiles were to have been delivered to the Indian Navy by 2012 while the medium range missiles should be in the Indian Air Force weaponry by 2017. However, both the delivery schedules are way behind schedule and show no signs of meeting them even in the near future.

DRDO officials are blaming the lack of progress in the joint venture due to lack of transparency and non-transfer of technology by their Israeli counterparts. And the recent trials that were conducted by the Indian defence organization failed to meet the standards of both the IAF and the Indian Navy. The entire cost of Rs 12,500 crore of the joint venture is being funded by India and the inordinate delay and lack of progress in the project has turned into a big cause of worry in the defence ministry.

According to sources, the LR-SAMs project was commissioned in 2006 and the delivery of the missiles to the Indian Navy should have happened by 2012. Similarly, the MR-SAM venture was signed in 2009 and the missiles are to be delivered to the Indian Air Force by 2017. Both both the projects are way behind schedule and show no signs of making progress.

"Frankly speaking, right now, not much is going on in the joint venture due to various issues between the two sides. Expecting Israel to share its technology with India is unfair. But such things should have been clarified before the joint venture was entered into," said an official.

DRDO is maintaining that it is because of the lack of transfer of technology that the trials conducted so far have ended up as failures. "Industries are merely getting the drawings as to how to produce certain systems and such things are leading to deviations from the laid down specifications because the knowledge to develop the systems is not being imparted," said sources.

DRDO officials are also attributing the delay to a complicated and long procedure involving shuttling between India and Israel for various stages of development of a system etc. The Hyderabad-based Indian defence organization also reportedly found itself helpless on problems in propulsion system and other related issues while a significant number of parts or systems are yet to be tested following a delay in manufacturing.

However, when quizzed on the issue, DRDO Director General Avinash Chander told the TOI that nothing was amiss. "Everything is going on as per the plan and development trials are on. We shall be able to deliver the MR-SAMs as per schedule. Right now, the contribution from India in the joint venture project is about 20% and would ultimately reach 80% in the final stages." Regarding the already delayed LR-SAM, DRDO officials declined to come on record.

MR-SAM, one of the major demands of the forces, is to have a range of 70 kms or so, and the IAF is banking on replacing its ageing Soviet-made Pechora SAM missiles with the MR-SAMs. But nobody is sure how long the wait is going to be, and whether the delivery will take place at all.



海得拉巴：印度国防研究与发展组织（以下称DRDO）和以色列航空航天工业(以下称IAI)的合作建造远程面空导弹（LR SAM）和中程面空导弹（MR-SAM）结果竟然是一个毫无机会的项目。

远程防空导弹应当在2012交付给印度海军，而中程导弹应在2017年装备印度空军。然而，这两货的交货时间远远落后于进度表，甚至在不久的将来也没有迹象满足进度要求。

DRDO 官员将联合项目的进展归咎于他们的以色列合作伙伴缺乏技术透明度及转让。最近印度国防组织进行的相关试验结果无法满足空军和海军的要求。整个成本达12,500亿卢比的合作项目由印度投资，却一拖再拖，缺乏项目的进展已经变成国防部最担心的事。

据消息人士透露，LR-SAMS远程地空导弹项目2006年启动，2012年应当交付给印度海军。同样，在2009年签署的MR-SAM中程面空项目应当在2017年交付给印度空军。两个项目都远远落后于进度，也没有取得进展的迹象。

“老实说，现在，由于双方之间的各种问题，联合项目中没有什么研发在进行。期待以色列与印度分享其技术是不公平的，但是，这样的事情应该在订立合作之前澄清“一位官员说。

DRDO坚持认为这是因为缺乏技术转让，才导致到目前为止进行的试射以失败告终。 “工业界只获得了如何生产某些系统之类的图纸，却因为没有被传授知识来开发系统,这导致既定的技术参数达不到，”消息人士说。

DRDO官员也将推迟归咎于涉及系统开发等各阶段的复杂而长期的过程，这过程涉及到印度和以色列之间来回穿梭。据报道海得拉巴的印度国防组织也发现自己无助的在独自面对推进系统的问题及其他相关问题，同时大量的零件或系统在生产延迟之后，还有待测试。

然而，当被问及这个问题时，DRDO主任阿维纳什·钱德尔告诉TOI（印度时报），没有什么不对劲。“一切正按照计划进行，开发试验也在继续。我们将能够按进度表提供MR-SAM中程对空导弹。眼下，在合资项目中，印度的贡献约20％，最终将在最后阶段达到80％“。对于已经推迟LR-SAM，DRDO官员则拒绝记者记录内容。

MR-SAM，军队的主要需求之一，就是有70公里左右的射程，IAF指望它MR-SAM能够替换老旧的苏制伯朝拉（北约SA-3）地空导弹。但谁也不知道等待的将是多久，甚至是否将会有交付。
