In a significant boost to its defense capabilities, India is set to receive the fourth squadron of the Russian S-400 Triumf air defense missile systems by the end of 2025, according to an exclusive report by Sputnik India. This development underscores the deepening military cooperation between India and Russia, amidst strategic regional dynamics.

The S-400 Triumf, known by NATO as the SA-21 Growler, is one of the most advanced long-range surface-to-air missile systems globally. Capable of engaging aircraft, drones, ballistic and cruise missiles at ranges up to 400 kilometers, the system significantly enhances India’s aerial defense network.

The acquisition of the S-400 systems began with an agreement in 2018, where India committed to purchasing five squadrons from Russia for $5.43 billion. The delivery schedule has faced delays due to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and related international sanctions, but the resolve to complete the supply has remained steadfast.

India has already deployed three squadrons along its sensitive borders with Pakistan and China, where these systems play a crucial role in deterring potential aerial threats. The deployment of the fourth squadron will further fortify India’s strategic defense posture.
