India has built one of the most advanced multi-layered air defense systems in the world, combining indigenous, imported, and jointly developed technologies.
From the Russian S-400 and the homegrown Akash SAM to the upcoming Project Kusha, India is preparing to counter threats from China and Pakistan.
But how does it compare to Israel’s Iron Dome?
While Iron Dome specializes in short-range rocket interceptions, India’s focus lies in defending against ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, stealth jets, and hypersonic threats over greater distances.
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.

In a dramatic escalation of the Iran-Israel conflict, Tehran has launched its first-ever hypersonic missile strike using the Fattah-1 — a Mach 15 precision weapon designed to evade all known missile defense systems, including Israel’s vaunted Iron Dome. Fired during the 11th phase of Operation True Promise III, the Fattah missile reportedly penetrated deep into Israeli airspace, shaking shelters and signaling a dangerous shift in regional warfare.

Iran launched a bold daylight missile strike on Tel Aviv, with five missiles reportedly penetrating Israeli defenses without interception. This alarming event marks a turning point in the war: Iran is escalating timing and tactics, and Israeli interceptor stockpiles may be running dangerously low. Reports suggest growing failure rates and a reliance on older systems. As Israel struggles to shield its cities, voices in Washington pushing for U.S. military involvement grow louder. Trump's recent actions indicate the U.S. may be preparing to step in, as Israeli defense crumbles under relentless Iranian pressure.

In a stunning escalation, Iran launched a next-gen guided missile at Israel’s Glilot intelligence center near Tel Aviv — reportedly the Mossad HQ. The Iranian Defense Ministry confirmed the use of this advanced missile in combat for the first time. Despite intense U.S.-backed air defense attempts, over 10 interceptors failed as the missile hit its mark. Dramatic footage shows fire at the strike site. This marks a significant failure of Israel’s Iron Dome and a new phase in Iran’s offensive capability amid the escalating regional conflict.

Al-Qassam Brigades have released new video footage showing their fighters dodging Israeli airstrikes before throwing a hand grenade into an IDF tank. The intense battle scenes highlight the attritional warfare faced by Hamas’ military wing in Gaza. Despite months of Israeli operations, Hamas claims 20,000 fighters remain active, with spokesperson Abu Obeida warning of harsher retaliation if raids persist.

A shocking viral video from Sweida shows HTS soldiers brutally forcing two Druze men at gunpoint onto a balcony, hurling slurs, and making them climb the railing before firing shots and throwing them off. Multiple videos have emerged exposing escalating sectarian violence in southern Syria, where HTS forces battle Druze militias. Israel’s Minister of Diaspora condemned the regime, comparing it to Hamas. After weeks of bloodshed, the U.S. has brokered a fragile ceasefire, but questions remain—will the atrocities finally stop?
