India is set to acquire five more S-400 air defence missile squadrons from Russia. This move follows significant success during Operation Sindoor, where the S-400 system proved effective against Pakistani aircraft. The Indian Air Force aims to bolster its air defence capabilities on both eastern and western fronts.

India has showed its desire to acquire additional 5 Squadrons of S-400 Missile Defense system after its huge success during Operation Sindoor.

The S-400 provided excellent deterrence against Pakistani Missiles, Drones and even aircrafts. The system also achieved a legendary feat against Pakistan last year, where they also secured the longest ever air kill when a high-value Pakistani spy plane was hit by the S-400 missile.

The Defence Ministry will soon take up the case to clear the Indian Air Force proposal to buy the additional five squadrons of the Russian air defence missile systems, which will be deployed on both the eastern and western front.

As we all know, India is itself also working on its own missile defense system under “Project Kusha”. The defense system will still be very relevant even after this procurement of additional units of S-400, because it is planned that India will fulfill its requirement of Long Range defense system by acquiring in total 10 Squadrons of S-400 and 15 Squadrons of Indigenous Project Kusha defense system which will provide maximum range of 350 Km.
