Friendship between New Delhi and Moscow began during the Cold War. Many of the Indian scientific and technological achievements (especially in the field of space research and nuclear energy) became possible thanks to the strong support of the Soviet Union. The purpose of this article is to present two areas of cooperation between India and Russia, which are not so popular in publications – science & technology and space cooperation. Both of these areas prove that the Russia-India cooperation goes beyond the export of military equipment and political statements. It also shows that both countries cooperate with each other on the basis of equal partnership and share technological achievements.

At the beginning of the 1990s the political and military global reality was radically transformed. It affected all spheres of socio-political life and was visible also in the armed forces. At the beginning of the second decade of the 21st century, the Russian armed forces were still one of the most troubling military mechanisms in the world. In 2007 the Minister of Defense Anatoly Serdyukov decided to implement a broad military reform, which included (besides organizational issues and modernization of military equipment) also social issues. The aim of this article is to analyze the second stage of the armed forces reform in Russia (2010–2015) that entailed improvement of material status and livelihood of soldiers.
