印度作为一个发展中国家,经济不算发达,技术水平也不高,但对航天技术的发展却十分重视,经费投入逐年增加,1993财年为1.9亿美元,1994财年2.52亿美元,1995财年达到3.3亿美元。通过引进、吸收外国技术,印度在卫星通信、卫星遥感和运载火箭等技术领域取得长足进步,并积极推进航天技术的军事应用。 As a developing country, India has a relatively underdeveloped economy and a low level of technology. However, it attaches great importance to the development of aerospace technology. Its funding has increased year by year. It was 190 million U.S. dollars in fiscal year 1993 and 252 million U.S. dollars in fiscal year 1994. The year reached 330 million U.S. dollars. Through the introduction and absorption of foreign technologies, India has made great strides in satellite communications, satellite remote sensing and launch vehicle technologies, and has actively promoted military applications of space technology.
