It is equipped with a high-explosive fragmentation warhead to destroy targets like aircraft or cruise missiles.
The system also includes missile launcher and an upgraded AN/MPQ-65 radar to enhance detection in high-clutter environments, and to improve differentiation of closely spaced objects.
India also intends to acquire ten C-17 military transport aircraft for the air force wing, which were showcased in Agra last month during the India-US training exercises.
