    India's Air Defense System and its Capabilities

    A long thread. Though it missed IACCS, and dozens of Elta 2084, Rohini radars place along the border. Not to mention the two/three operational BMD radar sites hosting Green Pine derivatives

    Since the S400 will be more of a static weapon guarding Delhi or some important strategic base a Spyder system or own QRSAM can easily defend it We always "realise" that we need tonnes of supplementary infra/eqpt after buying an already expensive equipment. And since these are sold as...

    I guess it could be a BMD radar site. But whats the big deal with 1500 sqm? Just 0.4acres. Something is wrong with that figure.. Else such a small piece of land should not even matter. BDM aint possible in just 1 acre...
