On July 23, India carried out the successfully test of the Kusha surface-to-air missile. The missile was fired off the coast of Odisha by the Defence Research and Development Organisation also known as DRDO. This was the M1 interceptor which is the first missile in Project Kusha. It has a range upto 150 kilometres and can intercept fighter jets, drones and cruise missiles. The M2 and M3 are being developed and the entire unit will be ready for induction by 2028. How does Project Kusha put India in an elite group of nations and how does it compete with the Russian-made S-400 that Indian armed forces already operate. In this video, Hem Kaur Saroya explains how Kusha will safeguard India's skies.
