The [[Akashteer]] system of the [[Indian Army]] is being integrated with the IACCS to increase [[Jointness and integration in the Indian military|jointness]] of the Armed Forces for air defence. This brings the radars of the Army through Akashteer and the Air Force radars and civilian radars through the IACCS under the Joint Air Defence Centre (JADC) level. Post integration, IAF will be in charge of the JADC. As of January 2025, integration for one site is complete while that for other sites are underway.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Deshpande |first=Smruti |last2=ThePrint |date=2025-01-15 |title=How IAF, Army are moving towards jointness with integration of air defence systems |url=https://theprint.in/defence/how-iaf-army-are-moving-towards-jointness-with-integration-of-air-defence-systems/2445411/?amp |access-date=2025-01-15 |website=ThePrint |language=en-US}}</ref> |

As of June 2025, the Indian Air Force proposed to set up an Air Defence Centre, which hosts advanced sensors and radars, in [[Kozhikode district]], [[Kerala]]. Two months earlier IAF had submitted the formal letter for land acquisition. The site would be 40-acre land at [[NIRDESH]], [[Chaliyam]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=2025-06-26 |title=Indian Air Force proposes air defence centre in Kozhikode |url=https://www.onmanorama.com/news/kerala/2025/06/26/iaf-air-defence-centre-kozhikode.html |access-date=2025-06-27 |website=Onmanorama |language=en}}</ref> |

In mid-March 2025, IAF received six anti-stealth [[VHF]] radar ''Surya'' from a Bengaluru-based firm under a contract of less than {{INRConvert|200|c|lk=|year=2025}}. The radar has been deployed to detect and track stealth and low-observable aircraft. It will complement [[Bharat Electronics|BEL]]'s [[Projects of DRDO#Navy|Ashwini]] Low-Level Transportable Radar (LLTR).<ref>{{Cite news |date=2025-05-26 |title=India develops anti-stealth Surya VHF radar as China plans to give stealth 5th genereation fighter jets to Pakistan: Report |url=https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/new-updates/india-develops-anti-stealth-surya-vhf-radar-as-china-plans-to-give-stealth-5th-genereation-fighter-jets-to-pakistan-report/articleshow/121404272.cms |access-date=2025-06-18 |work=The Economic Times |issn=0013-0389}}</ref> The IACCS system was a part of India's Air Defence Network during [[Operation Sindoor]] where the system effectively foiled multiple of Pakistan's drone and missile attacks.<ref>{{Cite news |date=2025-05-14 |title=Operation SINDOOR: The Rise of Aatmanirbhar Innovation in National Security |url=https://www.pib.gov.in/PressReleasePage.aspx?PRID=2128746 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250516170223/https://www.pib.gov.in/PressReleasePage.aspx?PRID=2128746 |archive-date=2025-05-16 |access-date=2025-05-16 |work=[[Press Information Bureau]]}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=For Pak, India's Air Defence Network Is A 'Never Seen Before' Disruptive Tech: 10 Points |url=https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/operation-sindoor-for-pakistan-indian-air-defence-network-is-a-never-seen-before-disruptive-technology-8428608 |access-date=2025-05-16 |website=www.ndtv.com |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2025-05-15 |title=Operation Sindoor {{!}} How India’s air defence shield works: Inside the IACCS command system |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/explained/indias-air-defence-shield-10003549/ |access-date=2025-05-16 |website=The Indian Express |language=en}}</ref> |
