Russia confirms timely delivery of S-400 systems

India will receive its final two S-400 air defense regiments from Russia by 2026, completing a $5.43 billion deal signed in 2018.
Three regiments are already guarding India's borders, and these last deliveries were delayed but are now back on track.

TL;DR

Deal underscores India-Russia defense ties

The S-400s aren't just expensive tech—they've proven their worth during recent India-Pakistan tensions, especially in intercepting missiles and drones.
This deal also highlights the long-running defense partnership between India and Russia, with both sides looking to step up cooperation as security challenges evolve.
