Post-Balakot Strikes, Indian Army Inches Closer Towards Pakistan
May 15, 2019
The Indian Army is planning to deploy a number of its air defence units close to the Pakistan border to thwart any aerial threats emanating from the neighbouring country. This move is in light of India’s strike of the Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorist training camp in Balakot, after which Pakistan launched a counter aerial attack in Jammu sector along the Line of Control. The Indian Army came to this decision after a deep internal review of the increasing conflict with Pakistan in lieu of recent events.
A few air defence assets of the Indian Army deployed along the border include the indigenous Akash air defence missile systems along with the Russian Kvadrat and other old legacy systems. The force is also set to receive the latest MR-SAM air defence system which has been produced by the DRD-Israel joint venture.
