Authored by military historian Adrien Fontanellaz, the study reveals the drone strategy used by Pakistan & how they tried to hit S-400 air defence system, both of which failed.
New Delhi is interested in firming up bilateral agreements for increased trade, mobility, upgrade of Su-30 MKI fighters and the increased range of BrahMos supersonic missiles.
Not only did S-400 record its longest hit during India-Pakistan 88-hour conflict, ability of the system to shoot and scoot in a short time, which allows it to evade enemy fire, was also proved.
From legacy air defence guns to modern surface-to-air missile systems, the network of Soviet-era and contemporary Russian platforms blunted aerial threat between 7 and 10 May.
Provocations among Israel & Iran have prompted discussion on the need for India to broaden its air defence apparatus, given tensions with adversarial neighbours.
