NEW DELHI: India announced a number of defence
acquisitions and upgradations

press?
I thought the noun-form was upgrade as in India
announced a number of defence acquisitions and
upgrades
Folks,
According to this article in today's, The Globe and
Nail, India is the second largest supplier of Catholic
priests to Canada. The largest being Poland.
