The second 'S4Hundred' missile defense system purchased by India from Russia is going to be deployed in the border area of China. India will activate the second S-400 missile air defense system on the Chinese border in the next two to three months.
With the deployment of the S-400, the Indian Air Force will not only be able to identify Chinese fighter jets, strategic bombers, missiles, and drones from a distance but will also be able to destroy them in the blink of an eye.
It is a surface-to-air missile defense system. Sources said that the delivery of the second S-400 squadron through ships and planes is going on from Russia. The second consignment of S.400 systems is arriving for the first time since the start of the Ukraine war on 24 February.
Russia had sent the first consignment of S.400, which was delivered to India in December with the help of thousands of containers. India had deployed that system along the northwestern border. So that air threats from both Pakistan and China can be dealt with.
Not only this, the Indian Air Force had received simulators and many other equipments in the months of April and May this year, so that the training of S.400 could be given. Defense sources said the second batch of S.400 would be deployed on the Chinese front, especially to provide air defense.
India’s old friend Russia is supplying India with S-400 air defense missile systems at a time when China has started increasing activities along India’s border. Chinese fighter planes are often coming in the no-fly zone area of 10 km near the LAC ie the Line of Actual Control between India and China. Sources say that the deployment and flight of fighter jets by China on the 3488-km-long border, which is called the McMahon Line, has increased significantly in the areas of Ladakh and Arunachal Pradesh. They hover around the border almost daily. A Chinese fighter jet had also passed over Indian posts in the disputed areas of eastern Ladakh on June 28.
India has intensified its preparations with the deployment of the S-400 to give a befitting reply to the antics of the trickster China.
