Nutty, the number of suppliers is limited and when you buy you assume your supplier is 'friendly ' but later they may become 'enemy'.
During Confrontation Indonesia had British search radars and Russian SAM. The search radar was supposedly effective to 35,000ft and their fighter control was limited to 30,000ft. How true this was I don't know but it was what Decca, I think, told us.
