The focus on the defense relationship between Israel and India is usually on Israeli exports. This situation has not affected India's position as the most prominent customer of Israel’s defense industries. 21% of Israel’s defense exports between 2021-2025 were to Germany, SIPRI reports. SIBAT (International Defense Cooperation Directorate) at the Ministry of Defense data show that Israeli defense exports in those years totaled $71 billion. Surprisingly, arms shipments in some cases also passed through countries like Slovenia and France, even though President Emmanuel Macron is pursuing an aggressive policy against Israel’s defense industries.
