Understandable sentiments but this is modern day commerce, free market economics. Laying stringent conditions on them and others like them may be counter-productive. The Germans may listen to us and deny future weapon transfer to Pak or China only if we buy more from them than Pak or China. So till we are self reliant in production of major weapon systems, we may have to bite the bullet. Anyway we may not end up buying the Typhoons.

Any country that supplies to China or Pakistan has to on the short list for the toughest condition on reinvestment of monies in India and also Technology transfer.Otherwise the wests favourite game of pitting two people against eachother and then making profit is a bit too obvious.
The German’s should simply be sidelined during the show. Even if the Eurofighter is being considered.
