ngl, we all probably do that.

You can't use it effectively at terminal or lower altitudes, where speed & response time are critical. AD-2 is relatively slow as well. If the enemy degrades or disables early warning systems at the outset of a conflict, it could be game over. In Indo-Pak scenario, speed is the essence & unlike United States, which benefits from two oceans providing strategic depth, India does not have that luxury. This is one reason why Russia employs very high speed ABM systems with powerful boosters, in contrast to U.S. interceptors that accelerate more gradually. The trade off, however, is higher cost & a smaller number of interceptors that can be fielded at any given time.

That is why we have a multi-tier system. Besides, the whole point of an IACCS-like system is that the system as a whole will work even while its components are disabled.
In the event of a high altitude miss, MCS will automatically task AD-1s if the impact point is within the missile footprint.

doubtful it is s400, why would you move your important asset by ground transport exposing it to lot of threats instead of using air ?

It is the s400 , the vehicle that is appearing in the first frames of the video is the 96L6E (cheese board radar) .

Do IAF S400 units use olive green camo paint? Akash/MRSAM and other SAM units are low visibility grey. Strange.

Depends on the area of deployment , Olive green is also used by IAF S400 units along with the dusky camo.
