IAF: Not signing CISMOA will not lead to drop in operational capabilities

Chief of Indian Air Force told his government that his service’s operational capabilities will not be affected if the Communication Interoperability and Security Memorandum of Agreement (CISMOA) and the Logistics Support Agreement (LSA) with the U.S. is not signed.

His remarks come at a time when reports suggest that certain key equipment in military systems purchased from the U.S. will be removed in absence of those agreements.
