    Hope Astra spinoff SAM turns out to be similar to MBDA Rapier Jernas Though the MBDA one is a laser beam rider WVRAAM based one, and Astra is a Radar Homing BVRAAM, my point is the portability and airborne deployment capability. Hope they don't mount it on a truck. http://youtu.be/_3w822n8xOk...

    Astra has 2 versions, one with 40km range and another 100km range. So I assumed SAM would be made out of the 100Km Astra.

    So the longest range in the pipeline is of Ashwin - 150km. Still nowhere near the 400Km range of S-400. Equivalent maybe in intercept capability or seeker technology, but not in terms of range. Do we not need 400Km SAM capability? 400km is like the distance between Chandigarh & Islamabad...
