Indian Army loss due to dispute with Canada, what will happen to 'Stryker'?
Delhi: The diplomatic spat between Canada and India could cause heavy losses for the Indian Army. The current tension may lead to the suspension of plans to buy Stryker armored vehicles from Canada. These Stryker vehicles are manufactured in Canada. The Indian Army planned to deploy these vehicles along the border with China in Ladakh. America had earlier offered to sell and co-produce Stryker vehicles to India. Talks were in preliminary stages in June this year, but according to sources, India has not taken any decision to buy the Striker at present.
The American Stryker is an infantry fighting vehicle used to protect infantry troops. During the India-US 2+2 talks last November, the US had proposed its co-production. These vehicles can be used for anti-aircraft defense in high altitude areas. However, little progress was made in the June talks.
Which company makes 'Stryker'?
Canadian company General Dynamics Land Systems (GDLS-C) manufactures the Stryker armored vehicles. However, talks about the deal have been put on hold due to Canada-India diplomatic tensions. India wanted to deploy these vehicles along the Chinese border in Ladakh, but the rising tensions between the two countries have raised doubts about this.
Opposition from Indian companies:
Indian defense equipment manufacturers have opposed the deal. They say that we are the only ones capable of producing such armored vehicles, so the proposal with the Canadian company is not acceptable to them.
What is the 'WhAP' of the Indian Army?
The Indian Army has a 'WhAP' (Wheeld Armored Platform) made by DRDO and Tata Advanced Systems Limited, which the army is using in Ladakh. This vehicle augments the strength of Indian infantry units.
