A new photograph circulating on the social media site X (previously known as Twitter) has sparked great interest in defense circles, purportedly showing the Indian Air Force's (IAF) S-400 air defence system. This remarkable camouflage of the S-400 system is seen in this rare photograph, which was presumably obtained from a secret place.
The S-400 system is depicted in the circulating photograph with a peculiar 4-tube canister system, a trademark of the 51P6A Transporter Erector Launcher (TEL) - the most recent TEL created exclusively for the S-400 system. This TEL is meant to carry the 400-kilometer-range 40N6E missile in quad packs, as well as the 120-kilometer-range 9M96E2 missiles.
These missiles are designed to intercept and eliminate a variety of airborne threats, demonstrating the system's adaptability in combating many sorts of assaults.
While the precise location of the S-400 system seen in the photograph is uncertain, yet such photographs should not be posted by netizens in their whims of excitement as such photographs can be misused by enemies of India to further their propaganda or predict their deployment , thus could result in catastrophic consequences .
