Bunkum. The US spends more than the whole world combined. So what?
The only measure to consider with military expenditure is % to GDP of individual countries.

it uses its might to dictate issues around the globe thus why its president is called the leader of the free world. don't take this as an insult but just see what the rich gulf countries are doing to Syria, also the rich middle east country Saudi economic influence to gather a coalition against a neighboring foe.russia is not only showing its military strength in Syria but also it economic might to carry out and sustain such an air campaign

Your original premise re India is ridiculous. Why should Botswana, for example, jump up and down because of India's military expenditure? How old are you? You argue like a 12-year old fanboy.

Been a good week for the SANDF - final confirmation of the A-darter

“It will deliver an air-to-air missile that is functionally comparable with the most advanced missiles of this nature available in the world. Despite delays incurred during the development phase, the programme time scale has still been shorter than that of comparable missiles developed internationally.

“Following the successful flight test campaigns conducted during the past year, and sufficient mitigation of most technical risks on the programme, a contract for the industrialisation and subsequent production of the operational missiles for the SAAF was placed with industry towards the latter part of the reporting period. First delivery of missiles is expected to be towards February 2017.”

During the year under review work was also done on integrating the A-Darter and a helmet mounted display capability (HMC) onto the SAAF’s Hawk Mk120 lead-in fighter trainers.

And Badger deal expands:

The SA Army will ultimately have a fleet of 242 Badger infantry combat vehicles in nine variants as opposed to the original five combat variants according to the 2014/15 Armscor annual report.

According to the Armscor public document 21 vehicle platforms will be sourced from the Finnish company with the remaining 221 to be “completely manufactured in South Africa”.

“Development of the mortar and missile variants of the vehicle are planned to lag behind the section variant, and design and test and evaluation trials for these variants are planned to be completed during the 2015/16 financial year. Development of both these variants will be completed by the end of 2016. The concept designs of the signal and ambulance variants were completed in March 2015, while that of the artillery variant will be completed during the 2015/16 financial year,”


So its:

- Section Variant
- Command Variant
- Mortar Variant
- Anti-Tank Missile Variant
- Fire Support Variant
- Signal Variant
- Ambulance variant
- Artillery variant

9th variant??

Could be recovery variant?
By the way, don't quote me here, as I'm relaying what one of my seniors told me, but Armscor may have got it wrong on their annual report. The "Signal" component is embedded in the "Command" variant. What they're calling the Signal variant is actually the EW variant.
