The Igla-S is capable of targeting tactical aircraft, helicopters, and unmanned aerial vehicles, and has an altitude range of six kilometers. It is also an all-weather missile. The Indian government has signed a deal with Russia to buy 50 more Igla missiles for its air force.
The Igla-S missile was designed to counter the threat posed by aerial vehicles in close range. Its performance is superior to the SA-18 and is designed to target helicopters, tactical aircraft, and unmanned aerial vehicles. The Igla-S can be used in all weather conditions and has a six-kilometer range. The missile can also engage cruise missiles and other air targets. The Russians claim that they are capable of carrying out more than half of the U.S.’s military budget.
The Igla-S missile is capable of carrying 50 of them. Its range of six kilometers is impressive and it can attack tactical aircraft, helicopters, and unmanned aerial vehicles. It also offers all-weather capability. The missile can be launched into hostile airspace. It can even take out air forces. A few years ago, the Igla-S was purchased by the Indian air force. In this way, the Igla-S is one of the best air defense systems in the world.
The Igla-S missile is a new model of Russian MANPADS that offers improved performance compared to the SA-18.

In addition, the Igla-S is an all-weather weapon and can be carried by a range of different types of aircraft.
The Igla-S missile is a powerful weapon that is used to defend the Indian Air Force. The missiles are capable of destroying enemy airfields, and have an effective range of three kilometers. The Igla-S can also be used to target UAVs. Despite its impressive performance, the Indian air force is yet to decide on the final design of the Igla-S. Currently, it is unclear if the Igla-S will be used in India, but it is being touted as a potential weapon system.
In a deal announced Tuesday, Russia will supply India with the Igla-S missile system. The Igla-S is a portable air-defense system that offers superior performance over the SA-18.
