Geopolitics - April 2022

En este asunto

Geopolitics’ April, 2022 issue specially focusses on the Andaman & Nicobar Command of the Indian armed forces. The edition analyses the significance of potentially buying an additional batch of Dassault Rafale fighter jets from France. The issue also carries comprehensive articles on Indian missile prowess, ongoing RFIs for modernising the Indian military, and how emergency procurements are successfully filling up the gaps. Detailed features on Russia’s digital offensive against Ukraine, and the possible negative repercussions of American arms sales to Ukraine make the edition an interesting read. The Periscope section carries a writeup on the operationalisation and potential induction of the indigenously developed world-class MSMC (JVPC) carbine into the Indian Army. A number of Focus Features and interviews of industry leaders take the issue to a logical conclusion. The April, 2022 edition of the magazine is a must-read for everyone.
