According to the report, this long range indigenous missile (LR-SAM) system will have capabilities like Russia’s S-400 air defense system.

The report says that Cabinet approval has been given in May 2022 to develop the LR-SAM system as a “mission-mode” project. After this, the Ministry of Defense has approved the Acceptance of Necessity (AON) for the purchase of 5 squadrons for this system. It will cost Rs 21,700 crore.

The indigenous system that India is developing will have different interceptor missiles. These missiles
It will detect and destroy enemy attacks at distances of 150 km, 250 km and 350 km. The report says that with the help of this system, 80 percent of enemy missiles or other attacks can be destroyed. Continuous firing will give 90 percent results.

India’s LR-SAM can be deployed in areas that are strategically and tactically important. Usually, in such systems, enemy rockets or missiles are tracked with the help of radar. In case of attack, the radar tracks the missiles or rockets and destroys them in retaliation.
