India's lead in pharma manufacturing is because of their willingness to ignore US patents for simple drugs , not a technological reason.
That’s great, but does not translate well to ..say.. manufacturing modern chips or jet engines.

US patents are only valid in the US. India is not "ignoring" anything by not following foreign laws. Can someone with an Indian patent enforce it in the US?
"A PCT application does not itself result in the grant of a patent, since there is no such thing as an "international patent", and the grant of patent is a prerogative of each national or regional authority."
So, actually, No.
