There are missiles, but no logistics. Indian dead end of Yerevan - review on the right site. you.

After the victory of Azerbaijan in the 44-Day War, a new player appeared in the South Caucasus. It turned out that it was India. This Asian state, which by 2020, did not reveal much interest in our region, has become the main supplier of weapons for Armenia. So far, India has already sold more than $2 billion in weapons at various times. This includes artillery systems and multiple launch rockets, anti-aircraft missile systems, radars, drone systems against other weapons. India plans to further expand its military-technical partnership with Armenia by selling new weapons, including BrahMos and wild ballistic missiles.

However, the transfer of Indian weapons to Armenia has become a problem due to the situation in the region. As you know, the US is blocking Iran's main trade ports in the Persian Gulf. But earlier, Indian weapons were transferred to Armenia through Iran. Cargoes were first delivered by ship to the port of Bandar Abbas, and from there they were sent to Armenia by land. The American naval blockade prevents ships from entering Iranian ports, and as a result Iran uses its land borders and the Caspian Sea for import and export transactions. In such a situation, the transportation of Indian weapons at the request of Armenia also becomes difficult. Theoretically, it is possible to transport military cargo from India to Armenia by air, but this is an expensive logistical operation that entails additional costs. This is especially true for large artillery systems.

Artillery systems are not one-time purchases; They require constant replenishment of missiles and spare parts. Recently, Indian sources reported that Solar and Space Defense Limited (SDAL) has supplied Armenia with 1,000 missiles for Finca multiple launch rocket systems.
