Why IAF Urgently Wants SCALP Missiles on Tejas
The SCALP also known as Storm Shadow is a long-range, air-launched cruise missile developed by MBDA—a European defense consortium involving France, the UK, and Italy. With a range exceeding 250 km, terrain-hugging flight, and a dual-charge warhead, SCALP is designed to penetrate hardened targets like bunkers and command centers with surgical precision.

India’s interest in SCALP integration on Tejas Mk1A and Mk2 jets gained momentum after Operation Sindoor, where the missile reportedly demonstrated high-impact strike capability in a classified cross-border mission. The operation validated SCALP’s effectiveness in contested airspace, reinforcing its value for deep-strike missions without risking pilot exposure.

Tejas, while agile and modern, lacks the standoff punch needed for strategic missions. SCALP fills that gap—transforming Tejas from a tactical platform into a strategic asset. With France restarting SCALP production in 2025 after a 15-year pause, India has a rare window to acquire a proven system that aligns with its evolving doctrine of precision, deterrence, and reach.
