India's 'Sudarshan Chakra': Why a nationwide air defence shield is becoming a necessity
The Ukrainian attack on the key Russian port city of St Petersburg has once again demonstrated the need for a robust air defence system. The attack carried out 800 km from Ukraine's border took place just hours before the St Petersburg International Economic Forum, also known as the 'Russian Davos'.

Sudarshan Chakra: India's 'kill-web' to counter growing nuclear arsenals of China, Pakistan

Modern-day Brahmastra? How hypersonic missiles could change the rules of war
Operation Sindoor demonstrated how a supersonic weapon flying at a speed of nearly Mach 3 (3,700 kmph), or five times the speed of sound, is nearly impossible to stop. A missile flying at low level would be detected by a ground-based radar at a distance of 15 km and, at Mach 3, this would provide an early warning of around 15 seconds to impact. This compresses the decision cycle of an air defence commander.
