The Indian government is considering the possibility of purchasing additional five Russian S-400 Triumf anti-aircraft missile systems (SAMs). A meeting between representatives of both countries to discuss the deal will take place before the end of this week.
India expects that the purchase of SAMs will protect the country's sky from any attacks along the country's coastline, which stretches over 7,000 km.
According to sources, the intergovernmental deal may be approved even before the arrival of Russian President Vladimir Putin in India for the annual Russian-Indian summit in early December.
In 2018, India signed a contract to purchase five divisions of S-400 SAMs for $5.43 billion. The Republic's Prime Minister Narendra Modi emphasized that in the conflict with Pakistan, the Russian S-400s became a decisive force.
The S-400 Triumf air defense system is capable of tracking and engaging up to ten targets simultaneously, including missiles, aircraft, and large drones.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that Russia is ready to offer deliveries of Su-57 and S-400 air defense systems abroad.
