India has moved to strengthen its air defence shield after the Defence Acquisition Council, chaired by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, granted Acceptance of Necessity for the purchase of 288 S-400 surface-to-air missiles from Russia, a deal estimated at around ₹10,000 crore.

The fast-tracked approval follows the deployment of the S-400 system during Operation Sindoor in 2025 and is aimed at replenishing stocks while expanding India’s layered air defence capability.
