National News: In the military conflict between India and Pakistan last month, the Russian-made S-400 air defense system became the real shield of the security of Indian airspace. All the potential threats fired by Pakistan - missiles, drones or other air attacks - were destroyed by this system in the air itself. Now Russia has also officially accepted that India's S-400 system overcame every challenge of Pakistan.
Russia's Deputy Chief of Mission in India Roman Babushkin clarified on Monday that during the recent Indo-Pak conflict, S-400 Triumph demonstrated its capability and provided unbreakable security to India's air borders. He said, "We heard and saw that S-400 supported the Indian Army with full efficiency."
On the supply of the remaining two units of S-400 to India, Babushkin assured that Russia will deliver them within the time limit. He said, "The deal for the remaining units of S-400 is underway, and we will complete it by 2025-26."
It is worth noting that in 2018, India had struck a deal to buy five units of S-400 missile systems from Russia at a cost of US$5.43 billion. So far, India has received three units, one of which played an influential role in the recent conflict.
Babushkin also indicated that bilateral cooperation between India and Russia will deepen further in the field of air defense and anti-drone technology. He said, "Our defense cooperation is decades old and now it is ready to touch new heights."
