This is actually very good progress. They are not only becoming self-sufficient in ammunition production but are also exporting to Ukraine. This puts them ahead of many NATO states.
LOL! I don't know if India dares to continue exporting ammunition to Ukraine. What would Russia have to say about that?
But India will have no qualms about exporting ammunition to Israel. Adani is already in a JV with Elbit to produce Hermes 900 drones and then exporting some back to Israel.
Ukraine, Gaza, and Armenia. India has been busy trying to profit from these hotspots. So much for being a "peace-loving country" as Rajnath Singh once said.

It's just geoeconomics and geopolitics. There's no time for morality in great power competition, never had been and never will be.
JAI HIND! JAI ABSO-FVCKING-LUTELY HIND!
From actual (retired) senior military officials, no less.
Talking big is very easy, especially when the Indian Navy doesn't even have enough AEGIS-equivalent DDGs and FFGs to support the formation of that many CSG/CBGs, let alone the intricate systems required to support the operations of such scale.

There is no Indian shipyard with a basin that fits ships bigger than Vikrant

I have linked to the writings of Professor Prodyut Das on several previous occasions, as a figure who offers the rare combination of relevant engineering expertise, considerable personal historical experience working within India's defence-industrial complex, and a willingness to be openly critical of, even scathing towards, various development projects and institutions. In recent piece he compares the development history of three Indian aerospace projects: ALH/Dhruv, HJT-36 Sitara and LCA/Tejas. It is worth reading the entire piece, but this pithy summary of the LCA program made me laugh (I have tidied the quoted portion up somewhat):

That isn't the only delusional retired Indian Lt Gen out there:
His country men are roasting him alive because of their lack of modern artillery.

The combat range of the Tejas MK1A has been significantly increased to approximately 740 kilometers, compared to the F16's range of only 550 kilometers. Furthermore, its payload carrying capacity has been enhanced by 500 kilograms. Although the target was to reduce weight by 1000 kilograms, information on this aspect is currently unavailable. More details are anticipated to be disclosed in the future. Overall, the Tejas MK1A seems to outperform the Tejas MK1 not only in avionics but also in fundamental parameters such as range and payload.
