New Delhi, May 8 -- The Indian Air Force used the S-400 Triumf - dubbed SA-21 Growler by NATO - to thwart an aerial attack launched by Pakistan on Wednesday night. The S-400 is a modern long-range surface-to-air missile (MLR SAM) system developed by Russia.

According to a defence ministry official statement, the Pakistani military targeted locations including Awantipora, Srinagar, Jammu, Pathankot, Amritsar, Kapurthala, Jalandhar, Ludhiana, Adampur, Bhatinda, Chandigarh, Nal, Phalodi, Uttarlai, and Bhuj.

In retaliation, India targeted Pakistan's air defence radar and it has been confirmed that India 'neutralised' the Lahore Air Defence system.
