Project Kusha, or Extended Range Air Defence System (ERADS), is a programme under the Defense Research and Development Organization for the Indian Air Force and Indian Navy. The programme was also previously referred to as XRSAM. The goal is to design a mobile long-range surface-to-air missile system. The phased induction of the missile system consisting three variants of interceptors into the services is expected between 2028 and 2030. Project Kusha will initially supplement the S-400, Barak 8 and Indian Ballistic Missile Defence Programme, with plans to eventually replace the foreign systems. It is also one of the element of Mission Sudarshan Chakra.
