Thank you for sharing the talks
It would be a 'Maruti Suzuki' moment of the late 80s that would needed for such an ambitious program like the NQM, to be totally successful in any or all of the paradigms propelled through individual groups and experts within India. It means to become expert at assembling systems and sub-systems at first and slowly kindling ancillary industries and the needed ecosystem to build few or all of them.
Very high precision engineering ecosystem is needed at almost all engineering verticals and this is possible through mil and tight spec standards demands from primarily the defense, space and medical industry within the country. No ancillary manufacturing setups for Suzuki, HAL or ISRO could have come up if there was an order for just a single car, single aircraft or a single rocket and we just want to build a single Q. computer to at least know if it would be usable. Tough and exciting times for sure.
