'Performed very efficiently recently': Russia says India to get remaining S-400 systems by 2026
Monday, 2 June 2025 Russia is set to complete the delivery of S-400 air defence systems to India by 2025-2026, as confirmed by Russian authorities. The deputy chief of the Russian mission in India highlighted the system's effectiveness and expressed openness to expanding cooperation in air defense and anti-drone technologies, building on the long-standing partnership between the two nations.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has accused Quad nations — the US, Japan, and Australia — of dragging India into a de facto military alliance, despite Delhi’s stated focus on economic ties. Speaking at a Eurasian security forum, Lavrov warned of coordinated naval drills aimed at...
They travel faster than sound. Some even at Mach 20. They can strike any point on the planet within minutes — and no known defence system can stop them.
In this explosive breakdown, we take you inside the world’s fastest and most powerful missiles — Russia’s Avangard and Sarmat, China’s DF-41, the US Trident II D5 and Minuteman III — and reveal India’s imminent entry into the hypersonic elite.
From nuclear payloads to manoeuvrability and range, these weapons define modern deterrence and domination. And with India’s DRDO now testing indigenous hypersonic tech, the global arms race just got a new player.

Russia’s highly-touted S-400 air defense system is under intense scrutiny after a massive Ukrainian drone strike reportedly destroyed critical assets, including Russian bombers. On June 1, 2025, over 117 low-flying drones bypassed radar detection and targeted key military sites. Despite its reputation, the S-400 struggled to intercept these cheap, agile UAVs. Ukraine’s coordinated swarm attacks, use of jammers, decoys, and anti-radar missiles highlight growing vulnerabilities in legacy defense systems like the S-400—designed for jets and missiles, not modern drone warfare.
