Abstract

At present optoelectronic devices account for the largest share in the electronic industry production, due to their wide application in military and civil engineering. The article examines the Indian organizations producing space optoelectronic systems, the investment strategy of the Indian government in this area, as well as the opportunities for producers from the CIS countries to enter this market. A hypothesis is proposed about the existence of three investment periods in the Indian space industry related to various challenges, such as the Kargil conflict and the attempt to catch up with India’s development in the Make in India programme, in particular in the space sector.
