The Indian Army today provided a compelling demonstration in Delhi, showcasing the pivotal role of its air defence systems, specifically the AKASH missile system and L-70 air defence guns, in safeguarding the Golden Temple in Amritsar and other cities in Punjab from potential Pakistani missile and drone attacks. This demonstration underscored the critical importance of India’s air defence capabilities in countering cross-border threats and ensuring the security of vital installations and civilian populations.
The AKASH missile system, a medium-range surface-to-air missile, is designed to neutralize aerial threats, including fighter jets, cruise missiles, and drones. Its inclusion in the demonstration highlighted its effectiveness in intercepting and neutralizing hostile projectiles before they can reach their intended targets. Similarly, the L-70 air defence guns, with their rapid firing rate and precision targeting, are crucial for engaging low-flying aircraft and drones that may evade missile systems.
The Army’s decision to specifically highlight the protection of the Golden Temple carries significant symbolic weight, emphasizing the nation’s commitment to safeguarding its cultural and religious heritage. By showcasing the capabilities of these air defence systems, the Indian Army aimed to reassure the public of its preparedness and technological prowess in defending the nation’s airspace against potential adversaries. The demonstration served as a clear message of deterrence and a testament to the effectiveness of India’s indigenous air defence technologies in maintaining national security.
