New missile out of thin air....now Indian gave one more chance to test fire SIII or two with full range + MIRV

So you mean 2007 passed just an hour ago ?

Awesome news, but isn't Ashwin supposed SAM variant of AAD?

In its effort to have a full fledged multi-layer Ballistic Missile Defence system, India on Sunday successfully test-fired its indigenously-developed supersonic interceptor missile, capable of destroying any incoming hostile ballistic missile, from a test range off Odisha coast.

“The test conducted to validate various parameters of the interceptor in flight mode has been successful,” Defence Research Development Organisation (DRDO) sources said.

The interceptor was engaged against a target which was a naval version of Prithvi missile launched from a ship anchored inside Bay of Bengal, taking up the trajectory of a hostile ballistic missile.

The target missile was launched at about 11.15 hours and the interceptor, Advanced Air Defence (AAD) missile positioned at Abdul Kalam island (Wheeler Island) getting signals from tracking radars, roared through its trajectory to destroy the incoming hostile missile in mid-air, in an endo-atmospheric altitude, the sources said.

“The ‘kill’ effect of the interceptor was ascertained by analysing data from multiple tracking sources,” a DRDO scientist said.

The interceptor is a 7.5-meter long single stage solid rocket propelled guided missile equipped with a navigation system, a hi-tech computer and an electro-mechanical activator, the DRDO sources said.

The interceptor missile had its own mobile launcher, secure data link for interception, independent tracking and homing capabilities and sophisticated radars, the DRDO sources added. — PTI

IF Russian and Israeli engineers are employed and being paid out of Indian defence Budget then it is of course Indigenous.

Americans also hire lot of Indians in their production facilities

Any idea about its launcher ? Ground based or truck based ?

If you hadn't LOADS of it ALREADY, you'd be stuck to fighting gravitational forces of this planet and wouldn't have reached orbit of Mars!

If we had a bit of it

How do you know, educate us too please or is it just because you have had the fortune of Koreans and Chinese missile technology fitted on to yours that you presume Indians took the same route?

I'm well aware of ground realities and can smell the winds of change way before most of you can........ only thing that sort of irritates me is the "Made in India" sticker..........

The target intercepted was a missile launched from a ship in Bay of Bengal. http://indianexpress.com/article/in...capable-of-destroying-enemy-missiles-2801737/

Nah....... of course not bhaijan.......... Indians took the moral high ground and developed everything indigenously..... if you look closely, the word "INDI-genously" itself has it's roots in ancient sanskrit........... no wonder why you people love the word so much!
