Republic Day: T-90s roll, Naag strikes, S-400 debuts, India's war machine roars post-Sindoor victory

India celebrated its 77th Republic Day with a grand parade that prominently showcased its deadliest and most advanced weapons, underlining a strong focus on modern combined-arms warfare.

Infantry units, mechanised columns, heavy artillery, missile systems, drones and aerial assets all appeared in carefully choreographed formations meant to reflect real-world operational roles. Watch for details.
