Introduction
India cares a lot about protecting its country. So, India bought a powerful air defense system called the S-400 Triumf from Russia. This system helps protect India’s skies so that no enemy missiles or planes can enter our airspace.
What is the S-400 System?
The S-400 is an advanced missile defense system made in Russia. Its job is to detect enemy planes, missiles, and drones from far away and stop them from harming India. It can stop targets up to 400 kilometers away. This system is very powerful and modern.
Why Did India Buy the S-400?
India faces threats from some neighboring countries. So, it needs to make its defense strong. By buying the S-400:
– India can stop missiles or planes coming over its land from far away
– It can track many targets at the same time
– It can protect important cities and military bases
How Does the S-400 Work?
This system has advanced radars that detect threats from long distances. Then it launches missiles to destroy those threats before they reach India. It can track planes, missiles, and even stealth aircraft.
What Problems Did India Face?
When India bought the S-400 from Russia, the USA warned about sanctions called CAATSA. These sanctions are penalties for countries buying weapons from Russia. India had to manage its relations carefully with both the USA and Russia.
What Will Happen Next?
India will use the S-400 to make its defense stronger. India may also develop its own missile systems and cooperate with other countries to protect its airspace better.
