The Indian government's reluctance to strongly condemn Russia for its invasion of Ukraine appears to have awakened leaders in Washington to a long-simmering problem: how to wean the Indian military from its dependence on Russian weapons. The US government is considering a $500 million defense package for India to finance the purchase of American weapons systems. While half a billion dollars may sound like a lot of money, it really isn't when compared to the scale of the problem. Until recently, India purchased almost all of its front-line weapons from Russia (85%)
