India successfully carried out the test-firing of a new missile in the Agni series known as Agni-Prime on Monday off the coast of Odisha, officials said. The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) successfully flight tested the new generation nuclear-capable ballistic missile from Dr APJ Abdul Kalam island at 10:55am off the coast of Odisha. “Various telemetry and radar stations positioned along the eastern coast tracked and monitored the missile. The missile has followed textbook trajectory, meeting all mission objectives with a high level of accuracy,” DRDO said in a statement.


Agni-Prime is an advanced variant of the Agni class of missiles and is a canisterised missile with a range capability between 1000 and 2000km, it said.

Last Friday, the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) successfully test-fired an extended range version of indigenously-developed Pinaka rocket at Integrated Test Range (ITR) in Chandipur off the coast of Odisha.

That day, 25 Enhanced Pinaka rockets, which can destroy targets at distances up to 45 kilometres, were test-fired in quick succession against targets at different ranges on Thursday and Friday. The 122 mm Caliber rockets were also launched from a Multi-Barrel Rocket Launcher (MBRL).

The test was due for a long time. The technologies developed for Agni IV and Agni V has gone into it. Some other technologies might have also gone into it which includes guidance from multiple positioning systems like GLONAS, GAGAN, GPS etc. along with multiple complementary guidance systems, BMD avoidance features.
 
Looks a lot shorter than regular.Agni 2 missile for the same range. Surely more weight reduction has gone into place. We know for sure now Agni 1 has been replaced by Agni 1 P.
 
Who is the intended audience of this?

Recently Indian media has speculated targeting the Grand Mosque in Makkah.
 
The 1990s agni missiles that were in storage are being replaced by new missiles with improvements.
Nothing out of the ordinary.

Actually i was mistaken. It was the City of the Monotheistic Prophet, Madina, that is the target.

My apoligies.
 
Another childish attempt by belligerent Hindutva Regime to disturb regional peace and trigger a nuclear arm race.
It more likely will carry conventional warheads also Pakistan has more nuclear warheads than India as per latest estimates.
 
Some new detail of of Agni 1 Prime has come out. It is a two stage all composite missile with a range of 1000 to 2000 km with a payload of 2500 kg. It uses new propellant all composite motor to improve the speed and payload. It is very fast. It uses anti jaming devices and weighs less than half of Agni III. A new seris of missile has begun with two third range improvement, double payload and more 2.5 tines speed. This one is a new generation missile.
 
'atomi kuuwat :rofl:
What's so funny about it retard? It's just Urdu translation of English word or do you prefer the Parmanh shakti?
Did you forget Pak has more atamik bums???... So it is Pak which is forcing India into Nuclear race....
Ours are necessary evil meant only for defense as has been conveyed many times however hindutva regime has totally different plans, remember they're the ones who brought nukes in our region.
