India's Surface-to-air capability

[shiv]

SAM are to protect only of areas of importance(point defense)... U cannot provide entire SAM network to the whole country(as some member where saying as impregnable ). During war the enemy will search for a loop holes. Few SAM s are out of date but ya we do have upgraded the systems.
Watch out for s400 too, u never know .

Dunno if it is true but I heard that the first batch of s400 rolled out of the industries were given to India during the 26/11 days before Russia ?

But aren't the S400 still in the testing/ trial phase?

S-400 is operational since 2007, they are developing S-500 with 600km range and it'll be introduced in service around 2015-17.

We need Phlanx B CRAM type system with radar and gatelling gun to deal with top shell rockets missiles mortars etc. to deal with the all projectiles comming to battle field. It could be cheap version for defence. Might be machine be costly.

India owns the largest amount of anti aircraft wepons in the world.


Total Anti-Aircraft Weapon Strength by Country

$hit is true it is by a HUGE margin. As much as the next 4 nations combined or the bottom 53 nations (on the table)combined!!


53!!



+ the IAF's SPYDER system is awesome!:

You should try to develop your own missile in the S-300 class....it would really help against long range targets.

 

[guest11]

There are internet rumours about long range SAM based on modified AAD with 200+ km range, so who knows?

According to that list Pakistan has more antiaircraft weapons than China, US, UK & Israel (and so does Syria)
