[Maddy2105]

I was reading about Indian army in wikipedia and found this

Strength

The mounted President's Bodyguard during a state visit by a foreign dignitary.Indian Army statistics
Active Troops 1,414,000
Reserve Troops 1,800,000
Indian Territorial Army 787,000**
Main battle tanks 5,000
Artillery 3,200
Ballistic missiles ~100 (Agni-I,Agni-II,Agni-III)
Ballistic missiles ~1,000 Prithvi missile series
Cruise missiles ~1,000 BrahMos
Aircraft ~1,500
Surface-to-air missiles 100,000

1.Does India really have 100k SAM ?
2.Last time i heard India had territorial army of 40k not 7,87,000


Sorry if this Question has been asked before

I think the above listing is wishful instead of realistic. 1,000 BrahMos? What India is producing 2 missiles per day?

India and Russia intend to make 2,000 BrahMos supersonic cruise missiles over the next ten years through their joint venture company, and nearly 50 percent of them are expected to be exported to friendly countries.

if we talk about sam system india had S -300, akash, spyder,upgraded Pechora SA-3 and radars like green pine, Aerostat , Indria 1 & II and rajendra.

Any way BrahMosh is not a SAM system.

 

[Peace Sells no one buying]

1. Lists on wiki are frequently 'vandalized' such that numbers are under-reliable. (For example, sometimes someone will change lists so it shows that Denmark has 500 Air craft carriers, 99999 planes, 500 nuclear subs, etc)

2. Outside of complete fabrication, I think that these numbers are, at the most, best case scenario projections -- and not "what India has today".

3. I'm interested to see a better breakdown on these types of lists, like how many SAM are mobile, installations, hand held, etc . . .

A sizeable expansion of India’s air-defence network would be required with multi-layered air defence in terms of surveillance, range capabilities and engagement ranges. This would need to be backed by an effective C4I system integral to the air defence system.

The fourth generation of S-300 that is S-300PMU-1 system entered in service in 1995. In the Russian arsenal, a battery of this system includes 48 48N6 missiles mounted on 12-transport-erector-launchers. The missiles have a range of 5-150km and a maximum altitude of 27km.All of this supported by a highly sophisticated C4I battle management system including engagement radars. It is named as ALMUZ 83 M6
