New Delhi, July 21 (IBNS) Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar on Tuesday said a framework for India-US Defence relationship was signed on June 3 which builds upon the previous framework to guide the bilateral defence and strategic partnership for the next ten years.

Both sides have identified proposals for joint development of Mobile Electric Hybrid Power Sources and Next Generation Protective Ensembles.

The proposed cooperation envisages enhancement of India’s defence technological and manufacturing capabilities.

No time frame for the implementation of the identified projects has been indicated as these relate to research and development.

The information was given by Parrikar in a written reply to Nazir Ahmed Laway and Ranjib Biswal in the Rajya Sabha.
