The equipment was to come to India in early 2024. Now because of a long war in Ukraine, the Indian forces will receive the last two complexes at best by the end of 2026. Russia was originally preparing to provide India with the last two anti-aircraft missile complexes C-400 Triumph of the five planned at the beginning of 2024. However, due to the delays caused by the continuing Russian-Ukrainian war, the supply was postponed to the end of 2026. This was reported on March 21 by India Today.

Faced with serious problems at borders with China and Pakistan, India decided to buy five C-400 complexes in the Russian Federation under a contract worth $ 5. 5 billion, signed in October 2018. Three of them are already put and fully ready for operation. At the same time, the first two SPRs arrived in India in December 2021 and April 2022, respectively.

According to the profile Indian edition of ANI, the first two SPRs C-400 were instructed to follow the Ladakh sector, covering the critically important Cycidor CHICKEN NECK in Western Bengal and the entire Northeast Region. "Despite these delays, Russia demonstrates a commitment to the execution of its contract, as evidenced by the supply of two systems in October 2023, although with a lag from the schedule for two years," - said Army Recognition.
