Why Israel-Iran conflict may not immediately affect Indian military supplies

The ongoing Israel-Iran conflict may not have an immediate impact on Indian military hardware and maintenance support, except if it turns into another protracted conflict lasting several months, officials closely monitoring the conflict told The Indian Express on Sunday. 'The war is too new as of now to show any displayable impact on Indian military spares or hardware,' a senior military official said, adding that any diversion of weapons stock could take place in the instance of a long-drawn conflict. This is significant as India is actively working on replenishing much of its Israeli-origin weapons which were extensively used in Operation Sindoor against Pakistan last month. Over the last decade, India has purchased from Israel a range of military equipment and weapons including missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles, sensors and radars, air defence systems, and small arms. Many of these Israeli weapons and platforms—particularly loitering munitions and air defence systems—were used in Operation Sindoor launched by India inside Pakistan last month. This includes SkyStriker loitering munitions, Heron and Searcher UAVs, Derby Beyond Visual Range Air to Air Missiles, SPICE 2000 guided bombs, Spike anti-tank guided missiles, Spyder surface-to-air missile system, Barak 8 air defence system, and Negev light machine guns and network radio communication equipment. Several Israeli companies have partnered and formed joint ventures with Indian companies and that will also help keep supplies to India going despite the war. 'A range of high-precision engineering companies in India carrying out contract manufacturing for Israelis is likely to ensure sustenance of Israeli-origin equipment remains unaffected,' an official said. This is in contrast with the impact another major ongoing global conflict—the long-drawn-out Russia-Ukraine war— initially had on Indian military spare supplies and delayed delivery schedule of the S-400 Triumf long-range surface-to-air missile system units. Officials explained this was because many of the big platforms in the Indian military such as fighter aircraft, transport aircraft, warships, air defence systems, and small arms are of soviet origin, requiring huge maintenance support from Russia, compared to the Israeli military hardware India has acquired over the years. The impact was significant even as India had started the maintenance of many Soviet-era military equipment indigenously. Another big factor that affected Russian military supplies to India was that the country was facing the Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA) in 2017. Russia was subjected to more stringent economic sanctions from the West after the war started. The Indian Air Force used the Israeli SPICE 2000 guided bombs in the Balakot air strikes in February 2019. The Army has procured advanced Heron drones from the country in the last two years to amplify surveillance along the Line of Actual Control amid the military standoff with China. According to data from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), Israel was the world's eighth largest arms exporter in 2020–24, accounting for 3.1 per cent of global arms exports. The single-largest importer of Israeli arms was India at 34 per cent, followed by the US at 13 per cent and the Philippines at 8.1 per cent.

US President Trump warned of additional strikes if Iran retaliated."Pakistanis, beware! After an attack on Iran, PM Shehbaz might not only award President Trump the Nobel Peace Prize, but also bestow upon him the Tamgha-e-Jurat (Medal of Courage), Tamgha-e-Shujaat (Medal of Bravery), Tamgha-e-Basalat (Medal of Valour), Tamgha-e-Imtiaz (Medal of Excellence), and perhaps even the Nishan-e-Haider (Pakistan's highest military honour)," a user said on X on journalist Ameer Abbas said: "The same Trump that PML-N senior leader Khawaja Saad Rafique once compared to Genghis Khan and Hitler - last night, the very same PML-N government nominated that 'Genghis Khan and Hitler' for the Nobel Peace Prize. Who is orchestrating such shameful and cowardly decisions?""How far will Nawaz Sharif and Asif Zardari go to please the powers that be - throwing the nation, the system, parliament, the Constitution, democracy, and political traditions into the abyss?" he analyst and columnist Raheeq Abbasi sarcastically said that the very Donald Trump whom Westerners were protesting against for war crimes was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by the Islamic Republic of Pakistan."Is there any sense of honour or humanity in those who nominated Trump, who vetoed the Gaza ceasefire resolution 8 times, for the Nobel Prize?" he asked."Thank you, Hafiz Sahib (Army Chief Gen Asim Munir)," he said in another netizen said the government could have nominated Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the prize, but thankfully settled for Trump. "It's also possible Netanyahu has been shortlisted for the next category."One Jarjees Ahmad said: "We are recommending someone involved in the massacre of Palestinians for a Nobel Peace Prize, and at the same time, we claim to stand with Iran. What a supreme level of hypocrisy."Major (R) Asim accused the military establishment of making decisions at its will and said the "uncrowned kings" of the country were "ready to sell out the nation whenever they please".Another social media user, Aamir Khan, said: "Shahbaz Sharif, Asif Zardari, Nawaz Sharif, and Asim Munir have nominated Donald Trump - a terrorist responsible for the massacre of Muslims - for a Nobel Prize. What greater betrayal could there be to Muslims, to our country, and the people of Pakistan? The nation must hold them accountable."
