Ejection Test MET-2 Prior to Canister launched Agni V after Monsoon.

Yes it is 22 tons for Agni III. Tessy specifically told that her team made a wonderful job by reducing Agni III weight from its design weight 48 tons to mare 22 tons. There is a bloody hell of difference between old agni III acceleration and Agni IV and V acceleration if you see the video. This is an indicator of low weight and high specific impulse motor.

Agni series is now using the technology developed for K- Series of missile for subs.

A noob question: Why after the monsoons? Why not during the monsoons? After all, aren't these supposed to be all-weather systems? Mind you, only the launch scheme needs to be validated, not the missile trajectory or accuracy.

This is a final configuration ..Agni V will be tested for its full range ...and we will need to position ships to track its full trajectory ....
and so weather plays very important role ...

test after monsoon is over makes sense !
