USIBC recently hosted an exclusive, closed-door session that convened military scholars from the Daniel K. Inouye Asia-Pacific Center for Security Studies (APCSS), representatives from the U.S. Military Group in India (USMILGP), and senior leadership from premier U.S. prime defence companies.
Moderated by Udaya Arun, Director, Aerospace & Defense, the dialogue moved beyond status updates to critically examine the structural hurdles currently impeding bilateral defence integration. The discussion focused on actionable strategies to overcome bottlenecks in co-production, scale the establishment of new suppliers within India, and foster a more robust, long-term synergy with the Indian defence industrial ecosystem.
This interaction was to deliberate and build directly on the U.S. Government plans underway to convene a Defence Industrial Base (DIB)-focused workshop later this year. This initiative is designed to translate today’s strategic insights into tangible frameworks, accelerating the path toward deeper industrial collaboration and technological parity in the sector.
We extend our gratitude to the Daniel K. Inouye Asia-Pacific Center for Security Studies professors Lt. Col. Rajan Pal and Shyam Tekwani, Military Group U.S. Embassy India participants Col. Anthony Hughes and Arkadeb Banerjee, Parag Sehgal, Lockheed Martin India, Col. Shailender Arya, Senior Advisor, The Asia Group, Saurabh Dubey, Director BD, Raytheon and Anshita Shukla, Associate, The Asia Group for their leadership in shaping this critical dialogue.
