Project Kusha / Programme LRSAM / PGLRSAM

With the development of PGLRSAM, now we are having our own Iron Steel system similar to Turkish one.

1. 150 to 400 km = PGLRSAM + S-400
2. 70 to 80 km = Akash-NG and MRSAM
3. 25 to 30 km = Akash-P + VL-SRSAM*
4. 05 to 08 km = VSHORADS
5. Less than 4 km = Sudarshan CIWS

* = Not sure if it will be inducted by the IAF

As per some news outlets, DRDO has fabricated 8×2 truck mounted system for VL-SRSAM specifically for IAF.

Brother you are quoting I-D-R-W. Though Porky_Kicker once found a luncher configuration for VL-SRSAM.

The VLSRSAM is primarily a naval system and compares well with the CAMM/Sea Ceptor that the Pakistanis are getting.

The IAF will, at some point, need to supplement its Sypder batteries, especially to cover ALGs along the China border.

A mobile SHORADS like VLSRSAM is certainly a good fit for both the IA and IAF as it allows for dispersed ops, imo.
