India is preparing to buy Predator drones from America. On Saturday, Navy Chief Admiral R Hari Kumar said that the process to buy 30 MQ-9B Predator drones at a cost of more than three billion US dollars is pending. Let me tell you, this is the same Predator drone, through which the Hellfire missile was launched and Al-Qaeda terrorist Al-Zawahiri was eliminated.
During the annual press conference a day before Navy Day, the Navy Chief said, this purchase is proposed to monitor China in the Indian Ocean. The three wings of the Indian Army are likely to get 10 drones under the pending proposal, he said.

The Air Force chief said, there are a lot of Chinese ships in the Indian Ocean region. It has 4-6 PLA Navy ships, then a few other vessels. A large number of Chinese vessels operating in the Indian Ocean region for fishing, he said. We keep a close eye on all the developments. About 60 other extra-regional forces are always present in the Indian Ocean region, he said. It is an important sector where a large amount of trade takes place. Our job is to see that India's interests in the maritime domain are protected.
