India's MIRVed ICBM : Agni VI

[gslv mk3]

So which thing is better? The one which is not ready after 100 tests

Complex systems such as these require 100s of tests. So not testing is an indication of hand me down technology

Ok... so here we are in 2017... But where is Agni-6?
Another false claim by India?

Hi shaheen!
There are various challenges ,
first off, they are going to increase the diameter of the missile to 2.1 to 2.2m. if the length of the missile has to remain same. This means an entirely new rocket-- one that would be made up of composites instead of maraging steel. To be honest it will be 3rd kind of rocket designed by ASL.
It might take a couple of years before they can test flight Agni-6(with a 2.2m dia), the weight of A-6 will probably be close to 50t(~56 tonnes). It will be India's true ICBM capable of a massive 3 tonnes throw weight-- which means it could easily do 6 MIRVs. They are targeting at 6 MIRV figure for A-6.

Hello Mishra Ji,
Any latest info regarding the development of this Missile ?
