Will India buy S500?

A report published by the Russian Press Agency claims that India could be the first customer to acquire Russia’s new S500 air defense system. The S500 is a new generation Russian-made surface-to-air missile system that has recently been formally incorporated into the Russian Armed Forces. The new system has the ability to intercept targets at extra ranges and at higher altitudes. The S500 is also said to have the capability to intercept hypersonic cruise missiles. Russia has also claimed delivery of a new S550 surface-to-air missile system to the Armed Forces a few days ago.
