But BEL's 'professionalism' doesn't end there. During Aero India 2011 when I visited BEL's booth and asked them about the scale-model of the coastal surveillance system (CCS) that was on display, two BEL employees in attendance there claimed that it was an indigenous system that was on order. When I corrected them by saying that it was Saab TransponderTech of Sweden that had been awarded a SEK116 million contract on November 24, 2010 by the Directorate General of Lighthouses and Lightships (DGLL) for supplying a national CSS stradling the entire Indian coastline, and that this was publicly announced by the DGLL, the two employees did'nt know where to hide their faces! The same thing happened when I showed them a brochure of the handheld terminal of ELBIT Systems' battlefield management system, and asked them how come an identical terminal was being displayed at the BEL booth as an 'indigenous' product. Worse was to follow, when BDL officials during Aero India 2011 privately complained to me about the methods adopted by BEL for being made the prime contractor for the IAF-specific Akash MR-SAM's production programme.Prasun K.
