XR-SAM (eXtra-long Range Surface to Air Missile) is an Indian long-range mobile surface to air missile defence system under development by Defence Research and Development Organization (DRDO).[1][2][3]

It will supplement the Indo-Israeli Barak 8 and Russian S-400 missile system in the Indian armed forces.

Design

The missile system might used to bridge the gap between MR-SAM (70 km) and S-400 (400 km). The missile system will have a range of 250 km against fighter jets, 350 km against cruise missiles, sea skimming anti-ship missiles, AWACS and mid air refuelers and will be capable of bringing down ballistic missiles and stealth fighters in the terminal stage. The naval version of the missile might be also developed to supplement the LR-SAM missile in the Indian Navy.[1][3][2]
