Pakistan's recent war effects have been more effective in driving sales than the airshow. Russia is also going to be caught off guard. The 40N6 missile, which has the longest range among the S-400 surface-to-air missiles, has been intercepted by HQ-9. This is the top-of-the-line 40N6 missile with a range of 400 kilometers from the S-400 missile system, and it was not only evaded by J-10 fighters.
It was also intercepted by HQ-9 missiles. Russia is going to be caught off guard. This is the top-of-the-line 40N6 missile in Russia's most advanced S-400 missile system!
In fact, India's military tactics are quite good. They have positioned the S-400 air defense missiles forward and equipped them with the farthest-reaching 40N6 missiles. The goal is to lure Pakistan's air force into battle and destroy Pakistan's early warning aircraft with an S-400 missile strike.
After Pakistan's early warning aircraft were remotely shot down, India's Rafale, Su-30, and MiG-29 fighters began to target J-10CE aircraft. As a result, the S-400 missiles malfunctioned and failed to intercept the J-10 aircraft and the early warning aircraft. Instead, they were directly intercepted in mid-air by HQ-9 missiles.
