“Sky Sabre is so accurate and agile that it is capable of hitting a tennis ball sized object travelling at the speed of sound. In fact, it can control the flight of 24 missiles simultaneously whilst in flight, guiding them to intercept 24 separate targets. It is an amazing capability.”
Impressive

I see India is receiving their S400's as well

The S-400 is a Russian-made air defense missile system by Almaz-Antey as an upgrade of the S-300 family of air defense missile systems. The S-400 enters in service with the Russian armed forces in 2007. The launcher vehicle of the S-400 battery has four missile containers; each container could house one 48N6E or four 9M96 surface-to-air missiles.

The missile S-400 also nicknamed Triumph is designed to engage, ECM, radar-picket, director area, reconnaissance, strategic and tactical aircraft, tactical and theatre ballistic missiles, medium-range ballistic missiles and other current and future air attack assets at a maximum range of 400 km, and an altitude of up to 30 km. The S-400 Triumph can also destroy Tomahawk cruise missiles and other types of missiles, including precision-guided ones, as well as AWACS aircraft, at ranges of up to 400 km. It can also detect stealth aircraft and other targets at all altitudes of their combat employment and at maximum ranges. This air defense missile system can simultaneously engage 36 targets.
