"Contract for S-400; biggest-ever deal in company history

On 5 October 2018, at New Delhi, Rosoboronexport signed a contract to supply India with the S-400 Triumf long-range air defence missile system (ADMS). “The S-400 supply agreement with India is a new landmark in the history of military-technical cooperation between our countries. The deal demonstrates the highest level of trust and understanding between India and Russia. I am sure that this agreement will also be a new impulse for strengthening and deepening our cooperation in the industry,” stated the Head of Rostec State Corporation Sergey Chemezov.

“The main advantage of the S- 400 is in its versatility. The system is able to engage all types of aerodynamic targets and ballistic missiles, including intermediate-range ballistic missiles. The Triumf is far superior to its foreign counterparts in maximum engagement range and minimum engagement altitude, emplacement/displacement time, as well as in a number of other key characteristics. The contract for supply of the S-400 Triumf air defence missile systems to India is the biggest for the entire history of military-technical cooperation between Russia and India and the largest in history of Rosoboronexport. We have now begun to execute it,” stated the Head of Rosoboronexport, Alexander Mikheev.
