The surface-to-surface missile can destroy targets nearly 700 km away. The missile is only 15 meters and powered by solid and liquid propellants at a speed of 2.5 km per seconds.

The missile, weighs around 12 tonnes and can carry both conventional and nuclear payload of about 1000 kg. It was first launched on January 25, 2002, and can be fired from road and rail mobile launchers.

No 'jadeed technology wala Nasr missile' will be tested only during India's mars launch and so on

Exact my thoughts. May be trying to divert the attention from the current intolerant debate in the country.
Or may be something big is happening which has not yet got Media's attention.

Big deal. These missiles can only deliver a nuclear payload to an enemy nation - such missiles are there with US, Russia, France, UK, China, Israel, Iran, North Korea and others. Does India have a missile which can deliver a nuclear payload on its own territory? Only one nuclear power has that capability. Eat your hearts out, Kuffars!

Yes, I heard Pakistani news. "Ek aur Bharat ne apna khali mission bheja to Pakistan ne be apane Nasr missile ka test kare dikha diya hum bhi kisi se kam nahi."

Oh man I still remember seeing...video on mars mission by a pak news channel...first the host talks about the details of the mission...then she says hum be kum nahi...hamne kal hamri nasr missile launch ki hei....lol

Indeed. Jadeed technology say lais, pin POINT accuracy walay naye nassar ka naam passar hai!

On topic: What is happening is, technologies that have been acquired, stolen, ripped and indeed the ones with "indigenous" R&D are maturing today....... so nothing new about it, it's the juice of all those years of acquisitions and re-labeling that have been going on!

The tests are done in specific times of the year, this has something to do with the sea state these days. They are done in a series because of lesser testing costs, it is easier to move people and logistics for all tests for a month to the Wheeler Island and then back to Hyderabad and Chandipur.

Soon you will hear the same news from our side, not because we are "replying" to any kind of tests, but because of the scheduling to these tests when the sea is calmer.
