| Summary/Abstract |
The Indo-Pacific geopolitical discourse is still evolving and entering the post-INF era where the regional states may face dim prospects for arms control and potentially a fierce theatre-level, missile-led arms race. Gradually,the proliferation of missiles and missile defence systems is becoming the ‘new normal’ in the world. In particular, Indo-Pacific would be the intense theatre of missile deployment, transfer as well as employment and all these happening keeping in tandem with the evolution of geopolitical rivalry. It would be safe to predict that the demand for Ballistic Missile Defence (BMD) technology will increase in the Indo-Pacific.
