Some things that India buys from USA (Score 1)

Some of the obvious things that India has bought from USA in the past year 1) Over 10 billion dollars worth of Boeing planes. Where do you think they are made? What jobs do you think help create? I guess they are not Americans as they are not code monkeys eh. 2) Billions of dollars worth of telecom equipment contracts. If you have EVER bothered to read quaterly reports of almost ANY MAJOR american telecom equipment company - you will ALWAYS see that one of their bright spots is increasing sales of equipment in India. Majority of it is straight imports from USA. India's largest telecom service provider is going to have a $5 billion tender within next two months and American companies are heavy favorites to win it along with Siemens. 3) Medical and surgical equipment: India has almost no home grown manufacturing for this kind of high end items and trust me THEY COST A LOT. An american company just exported a $15 million MRI machine to a local hospital in India. 4) Weapons. Yes, some of you might frown upon selling weapons. But guess what? USA spends a TON OF MONEY on weapons R&D. So, if you DECIDE TO NOT MAKE money from one of your biggest research investments then dont bitch at others. Currently, India is almost single handedly boosting up Russian arms industry but some of those high stakes orders are bound to go to USA as relations improve. Those are just some things I can think from top of my head. Please atleast pretend to be intellectuals. Their is a huge potential for trade between USA and India. And as to WHY indians would buy USA products? For the same reason why Indians buy Japanese products. Q U A L I T Y and BRAND NAMES. Indians can be very conscious about brand names and if their is something that is Made in China vs. Made in USA, they WILL think of "Made in USA" product as higher quality. No questions asked.
