New Delhi: In a significant development amid the ongoing tensions between India and Pakistan, the Vladimir Putin-led Russian government has reportedly offered India the R-37M missile. The moot idea behind this is aimed at equipping the fleet of Su-30MKI fighter jets with this missile. The R-37M is a hypersonic long-range air-to-air missile.
The R-37M has a range of 300 to 400 kilometers and a maximum. Known by the NATO name AA-13 Axehead, the R-37M has a speed of Mach 6, making it one of the most dangerous beyond-visual-range (BVR) missiles in the world. This means it has the capability to strike enemy targets in the air without needing to visually track them. Here are some of the key features of R-37M Missile: The R-37M Missile was developed by Russia's Vympel Design Bureau
R-37M Missile is designed to neutralize high-value airborne targets such as Airborne Warning and Control Systems (AWACS), tanker aircraft, and enemy fighter jets.
R-37M Missile is a jettisonable rocket booster enables the missile to achieve an extended range of 300–400 km (160–220 nautical miles)
R-37M Missile's hypersonic speed of up to Mach 6 (around 7,400 km/h)
The speed of the missile allows it to strike fast-moving targets quickly, making it difficult for enemies to evade.
The missile weighs approximately 510 kilograms and is equipped with a sophisticated guidance system, which includes mid-course updates, active radar homing, and terminal-phase navigation.
The R-37M can be deployed on several fighter jets including the Su-30, Su-35, Su-57, MiG-31BM, and MiG-35. Russia has offered it for India's Su-30MKI fighter jets, which are planned for upgrades.
The R-37M missile represents a significant upgrade over its predecessor, the R-37, with enhancements in range, speed, and guidance systems. It features a jettisonable rocket booster that allows it to achieve a range of 300 to 400 kilometers [160-220 nautical miles], making it one of the longest-reaching air-to-air missiles in service globally.

Additionally, Russia has also helped India with providing full source-code access, deep localization, and licensed production rights of the fighter jet. Here are all the details you need to know about the Russia-India Su-57E deal, which is bad news for Pakistan, China and the US.

Cybersecurity boost: Banks, RBI move to launch Digital Fraud Detection Platform amid soaring crimes - All you need to know

This is an AI-generated image, used for representational purposes only. In a concerted push to tackle the rising wave of digital payment frauds, major public and private sector banks are collaborating with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to develop a Digital Payment Intelligence Platform (DPIP), a new Digital Public Infrastructure aimed at enhancing fraud risk management As per the news agency PTI, the proposed platform will enable real-time intelligence sharing and data analysis to detect and prevent fraudulent digital transactions. According to sources, the RBI-led initiative is a top priority and is expected to go live in the coming months. The Reserve Bank Innovation Hub (RBIH) has been tasked with building a prototype of DPIP in consultation with 5–10 banks. 'Fraud is a common monster,' a source said, underlining why both public and private banks are being roped in to co-develop the platform. A high-level meeting was recently held to finalise its institutional structure, with participation from senior bank executives and RBI officials. The platform comes in response to a sharp spike in fraud cases. As per the RBI's latest annual report, bank frauds jumped nearly threefold to Rs 36,014 crore in FY25, compared to Rs 12,230 crore a year ago. Public sector banks reported Rs 25,667 crore worth of frauds—up from Rs 9,254 crore in FY24. While card and internet payment frauds dominated in the private sector, public sector banks faced large-scale fraud in their loan portfolios. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Aparat de sudură cu laser de 9000 W (4 în 1) – o revoluție în sudură!

The telecom major also highlighted risks posed by OTT messaging platforms, calling them the weakest link in fraud prevention due to lack of regulatory oversight. Airtel Vice Chairman and MD Gopal Vittal, in a letter to NPCI MD & CEO Dilip Asbe, proposed 'closer collaboration to create a repository of known fraudulent financial domains,' and favoured joint public awareness campaigns and technical cooperation to counter online scams. 'The external threat landscape is evolving rapidly. Systems like are useful, but still reactive,' Vittal wrote to the RBI, stressing that fraud must be stopped at the first step—when a user attempts to access a malicious site. The telco's proposal received positive responses from banks and the NPCI, sources said. Airtel has also sought to join forces with Jio and Vodafone Idea to initiate a joint industry-level defence against telecom-based scams. In the first nine months of 2024 alone, India reported over 1.7 million cybercrime complaints, resulting in losses exceeding Rs 11,000 crore. These figures underscore the urgency of building a coordinated, tech-driven ecosystem like DPIP to shield consumers and financial systems from the growing digital threat.
