Indian Army gets a major military advantage in view of increasing tensions with Pakistan following the Pahalgam terror attack. The army recently acquired Russian-origin Igla-S air defense missiles. These are components of an extremely short-range air defense system and will enhance the capability of the army against aerial attacks.

The transaction took place under the government-given emergency procurement powers for the army. Under this agreement, the cruise missiles costing approximately Rs 260 crore are being provided for the border forward posts for defense against enemy fighter aircraft, helicopters, and drones.

According to Jagran sources, these missiles were received by the army a few weeks ago and are being deployed on the western borders, where there is a threat from Pakistan.
