India will soon supply its surface-to-air missile system Akash-1S to Armenia, for which the treaty was signed way back in 2022. But, Akash is not the only weapon that New Delhi will sell to the Caucasian country; there is a wide range of weapons from howitzer guns to anti-tank rockets to anti-drone equipment. India may soon replace Russia as the biggest arms supplier to Yerevan. It is significant in the wake of the recent India-Pakistan escalation, where Azerbaijan chose to back Pakistan.
New Delhi's decision to reach out to Armenia is an attempt to gain a foothold in the Caucasus region, where India has never existed.
