European rearmament

We have increased production of all types of ammunition to help Ukraine and tripled production of the systems used to launch this ammunition. The goal for the coming years is to increase production fivefold.

Ukraine has run out of MEN who will fight for their Country

You must have seen videos of Ukrainian Draft Dodgers

This Re Armament is for A hypothetical Situation when US and Europe break up

And right now , European countries must focus on internal security ie growing attacks by Africans and Muslims on the Native White Christian population
 

The Swedish government’s offer of Saab’s A26 submarines to Poland has been selected by the Polish government to replace the current Kilo-class submarine. Naval News recently visited Saab Kockums' shipyard in Karlskrona, where two A26 submarines are currently in production for the Swedish Navy, to learn more.
 
Missile defense: Five European companies want to develop an exoatmospheric effector

European companies Thales, Airbus Defence and Space, Destinus, MBDA Deutschland, and Safran Electronics & Defense aim to develop Europe’s first sovereign exo-atmospheric interceptor program, designed for full interoperability with NATO IAMD (Integrated Air and Missile Defence) and the European Sky Shield Initiative (ESSI). According to a statement from the companies, the Memorandum of Understanding to establish the Bliksem EXO consortium—a multinational European industrial partnership for the development, qualification, serial production, and support of Bliksem EXO—was signed today in Paris during the inaugural meeting of the Ballistic Missile Defence Coalition, in the presence of Dutch Minister Rob Jetten. According to the statement, Bliksem EXO is an independent European exo-atmospheric intercept system designed to counter medium-range ballistic missiles (MRBMs) and intermediate-range ballistic missiles (IRBMs)—including Oreshnik-class systems featuring separable and maneuverable reentry vehicles.
It is designed for the upper tier of missile defense: detecting, tracking, and intercepting MRBM and IRBM threats during the mid-course phase outside the atmosphere using a direct kinetic "hit-to-kill" mechanism, without a warhead. This design complements existing and planned European capabilities for the lower intercept layers, the statement adds. Within the consortium, the Netherlands-based company Destinus acts as consortium leader and prime contractor, responsible for system integration and the exoatmospheric "Kill Vehicle" (EKV); MBDA Germany is responsible for the interceptor booster, launcher, and canisters; Safran Electronics & Defense for the seeker head as well as the EKV’s guidance, navigation, and control; Airbus Defence and Space for command and control and battle management (BMC4I); and Thales for the radar and sensor chain, ranging from early warning to fire control.
The parties intend to conclude a binding consortium agreement within three months of signing the letter of intent. Joint development work within the consortium is scheduled to begin in August 2026, and the consortium plans to conduct an EKV test in space in 2027.
 

Five European defense firms led by startup Destinus plan to form an industrial partnership to develop Europe’s first exo-atmospheric interceptor, aimed at defending against ballistic missiles, with plans to conduct a test of the kill vehicle in space in 2027. Destinus, MBDA, Safran, Airbus and Thales signed a letter of intent in Paris on Tuesday to set up the Bliksem EXO consortium, with the intention of entering a binding agreement within three months and starting joint engineering work in August, the companies said in a joint statement.

Excellent post. Taking the information posted here I have attempted to compare the Indian & French conventional rocket/missile forces:
Rocket & Missile forces of France & India.png
This is not an exhaustive list; a lot of data is missing. Just a rough comparison.

I don't know if Shaurya can be counted as a conventional strike missile. At the lower range of the spectrum, we are doing decently well. We need more options on the 900-2500 km range.

How about ground launched LRP2GM that is in development?
And the foreign stuff in Indian inventory - Suryastra, Smerch, etc.?

It is a comparison of domestic industrial capacities. Domestic design & manufacturing. Kept them out on purpose.

There is a ground launched variant of that? I didn't know that. Can you provide a link or something?

Long Range Powered precision guided munition

Light weight cruise missile termed as long range powered precision guided munition (LRP2GM) is 400 kg class ground / ship launched cruise missile fitted with a turbojet engine for sustained thrust. This can be fitted with EO/IR or PHS terminal seekers depending on operational requirements and a jamming resistant global positioning system (GPS).
