U.S. in Talks with India to Sell Star Wars Systems

The US and India are in talks regarding the purchase of missile defense systems.

From a purely technical perspective, India's defense needs are less challenging, the speed of an incoming missile increases with the distance with which it travels and Pakistan and China both share a border.

It's unclear from the article whether this is a real attempt to sell systems to India, or a PR attempt intended by missile defense advocates on both sides to boost the government support for their respective systems.
