Consider youself lucky as I happen to be online, and ready to lecture you a bit before calling the day...
Agni V's expected CEP = 1000km long X 600km wide = 600,000km2, an area slightly smaller than pakistan.
Of course "success", that's where the whole DRDO hoggydoggy chips in : 5000km missle with CEP as long as 1000km, 20% of it.
See, the area is so large that vitually ANY launch as long as it doesn't exploid in the mid air and is towards the right general direction ( say South, not ending up at North) can be claimed by DRDO as a "total success". In fact it will be very very difficult NOT to hit within such an area.
In comparion, DF-4 of China: its first launch was at beginning of 1970s with the similar distance. Its expected CEP=100km X 70km=7000km2, 10X more accurate than A5, meaning if it were targeted at New Delhi, it would have end up in metro of New Delhi, north or south of it doesn't matter. Yet DF-4 is NOT classified as ICBM, not by a long shot.
No no
it can't.
Its CEP means if it's targeted at beijing for instance, it has an equal chance to end up in Japan, or Russia or South Korea, or Mongolia. It's anyone's guess. Comprendido, genius?
And it is only based on the assumption that it COULD carry nuke warheads on which we don't have ANY evidence to suggest so.
The whole Agni thing is based on A HUGE assumption, for
i) India can't make nuke small enough, and
ii) India's re-entry tech is so primitive (and not expected to improve to the required standard in the forseeable future, trust me, it took UNSC 5 decades of hardwork to achieve that), that any nuke warhead you suppose to amount on A5 would have been melted during re-entry. Hence what we'll have on the ground would be a pile of wasted iron, like a tiny zinc astraoid,
IF it did hit Beijing after all.
Take a good look, this Agni test is without ANY warhead!
Futhermore, Agni V's survivalbility = 0, since it weights 50 freakin tons (joking right?)!
It thus can NOT be movil. You can't even make a much much lighter Aryan tank mobile without destroying most of the Indian bridges for god's sake. Hence any such launching platforms would be destroyed by highly accurate Chinese cruise missles at T1 during attacks.
THE ONLY realistic chance for India to launch nuke into China is to put it inside a plane and go for a 9*11 style suicide mission, which again has success probablity close to zero during its long journey.
No, your pants is caught down and you still keep lying. Such tech in India is non-existent if not at the most primitive stage, let's be honest.
thermonuclear weapon warhead? In your wet dream or what? Don't kid yourself. It's almost comical. Does india even have multi-stage thermonuclear weapon at all????
India is not capable of mounting of a simple nuclear device smaller enough onto A5 warhead that would survide re-entry and have significant impact whatsoever to the big boys in the forseable future, let alone thermonuclear one, undertood?
Trust me on this one, no matter with how much Rupees Ruskies won't sell you this tech.
Yeah right! What about reliability issue of Agni V, huh? Like a headless chicken, your DRDO even had no idea it would suceed or not, and no 100% confidence which general direction it could end up, with CEP = 20% of missile's coverage - ywt another world record I guess. errr.. another "elite Club"?
.
And the head of DRDO just said that it will go into production within a year after 2 more tests, with a "naked" warhead ( aka PAPER warhead of course).
Honestly, do you think how reliable it is? The chance that it will hit anything at all with that pile of plain iron (no warhead), even the general direction of it, is anyone's guess.
The upside for you is that New Delhi and all India cities are also within Agni V's theoritcal range, so be afraid and be very afraid.
While developing they should look forward the missile guiding, accuracy and speed carefully as one could not give way for failure. Agni 5 Clearly has an impact over the relationship with china. Indirectly India also sends a message to Russian Federation and the european union by putting them in attacking range. Well Done India.
