India
Between 2012–16 and 2017–21 Indian arms imports decreased by 21 per cent.
Despite this, India was the world’s largest importer of major arms in 2017–21
and accounted for 11 per cent of total global arms imports in the period.
Russia was the largest supplier of major arms to India in both 2012–16
and 2017–21, but India’s imports of Russian arms dropped by 47 per cent
between the two periods as several large programmes for Russian arms
wound down. This, combined with India’s increased efforts to diversify its
arms supplier base, meant that Russia’s share of total Indian arms imports
fell from 69 per cent to 46 per cent. In contrast, India’s arms imports from
France increased more than tenfold, making it India’s second largest arms
supplier in 2017–21.
Because of perceived growing threats from China and Pakistan and
because of significant delays in the production of its own major arms, India
has large-scale plans for arms imports. The drop in India’s arms imports is,
therefore, probably a temporary result of its slow and complex procurement
process as well as its shift in suppliers.
