Times of India quoted a 2010 report released recently said India strategic missiles, artillery, tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and equipment procurement, and so made a number of areas are lagging behind China. PLA has the ZBD-03 infantry fighting vehicles and many do not have the firepower capabilities of India.

The report said China's defense budget of 775 billion dollars, 32 billion U.S. dollars in India more than twice the defense budget, but the 2009 National Day parade in New Delhi has found itself in the domestic production capacity with the purchase of military hardware deficiencies - the past few years, the Indian Defense Ministry has not been spending money for the modernization of the armed forces.

The report said that in infantry weapons, armored personnel carriers and artillery field, the PLA are leading the Indian Army. Indian Army has no type of Chinese 5.8/5.56 mm 97 QBZ-97 automatic rifles, 95 type QBZ-95 automatic rifles, 95B-type carbine very weapons systems. Moreover, it is believed 05 Chinese-style 9 mm silenced submachine gun - Germany Heckler - Koch MP5 submachine gun submachine gun improved - compared to the quality of the Indian Army 9 mm submachine gun is more inferior.

Although India's "British SAS" (INSAS) 5.56 毫米 7.62 mm assault rifle is better than the Chinese Type 85 assault rifle, but the PLA QBZ-95 automatic rifles in India than the standard 7.62 mm rifle, but somewhat less quality.

In the armored weapons, comparable to India and China. "Arjun" MBT quality than China's third generation of ZTZ-99G MBT - Russian T-72 tanks modified version of tanks - should be higher. And to firepower and accuracy, the T-90 tanks in India than in China ZTZ-96A main battle tank stronger on a chip. It is reported that the famous Krupp Bo Make Western grams of company experts help laughing after hearing the argument that the experts had watched the scene as a consultant in India Aqiongtanke production line, according to the presence of India, told reporters after the experts have been shaking his head, expressed opposition to India this section tank design and production philosophy. Krupp Bo Make the company internal report had mentioned China ZTZ-99G tank related design concept, and that part of the identity, the gap between the level of the tank and India stand now.

Report, India is not the quality of the snow leopard with the PLA Navy is equipped with ZRD-05 amphibious assault vehicles tracked, ZBD-03 tanks and paratroopers WJ-03B Armored Car considerable chariot. On the tracked armored personnel carriers, China better than India, because the former Russian armored personnel carriers copies of BMP-III, India is still in use are equipped with 30 mm guns and anti-tank missiles, Russian-made BMP-I .

To artillery, China PLZ-05-type 155-mm self-propelled howitzer, 122 mm PLZ-07-type self-propelled howitzers, 120 mm PLL-05 wheel and 100 mm howitzer forced PTL-02 wheeled assault guns and other weapons systems to combat India does not have. China and India are using the same kind of Russian-made 300 mm multiple-launch rocket systems.

Although the anti-tank guided missiles and air defense artillery, the Chinese and Indian armies are evenly matched. However, with the People's Liberation Army's "Red Arrow" anti-tank missiles than India, "Nag" (NAG) is more excellent anti-tank missiles and anti-aircraft gun ZSU-2S6M1 India better than China PGZ-04A anti-aircraft guns.

At present, India is still under development, "Sakalika" long-range missile in response to China's "Dongfeng-31A" intercontinental ballistic missile. However, as the Indian Brahmos cruise missile in the range of the existence of such restrictions, and China's "East Sea -10" land-attack cruise missiles to attack targets 1,500 km away. In addition, China "Eagle Strike -83" anti-ship missiles with a range of 500 km.

However, for a range of over 300 kilometers in China, "YJ-62A" shore-based anti-ship cruise missiles, the New Delhi government is no countermeasures. However, India's "Agni" series of short-, medium-and long-range missiles than China's "Dongfeng-11A" short-range ballistic missiles, "Dongfeng-15A" short-range ballistic missiles and "Dongfeng-21C" medium-range ballistic missile.

China's "F -7", "J -8" and "J -10" with the Indian Air Force fighter or "MiG -21", "MIG -27" and "Mirage" aircraft in strength, or lower than the post- persons. PLA's "J-11B" and the Indian Air Force fighter "Su -30" fighters fairly. India's "Jaguar" deep penetration strike aircraft (DPSA) is stronger than China's "JH-7A Flying Leopard" attack machine. Indian Air Force's tanker and airborne early warning and control system is far superior to China's HY-6 tankers and "Air Police -2000," early warning aircraft.
