Pinaka rockets successfully test-fired from multi-barrel rocket launcher

[Zarvan]

Balasore (Odisha): Indigenously developed Pinaka rockets were on Thursday successfully test-fired from a multi-barrel rocket launcher (MBRL) by an armament establishment from a base at Chandipur-on-sea, about 15 km from Balasore.
"Three rounds of Pinaka rockets were successfully tested today," defence sources said, adding some more trials were expected to be conducted on Friday. On January 30 and 31, 213 seven rounds of Pinaka rockets were tested from the same base.
Pinaka, which has undergone several tough tests since 1995, has already been inducted into the armed forces. Thursday's test was conducted by personnel from Armament Research and Development Establishment (ARDE), Pune unit at Proof and Experimental Establishment (PXE) firing point-2 at Chandipur, the sources said.

"The MBRL, capable of acting as a force-multiplier, has been developed to supplement artillery guns," a defence official said.
Pinaka is an area weapon system with a range of 40 km. The quick reaction time and high rate of fire of the system gives an edge to the army during a low-intensity conflict situation, he said. The unguided rocket system is meant to neutralise large areas with rapid salvos. Pinaka system can fire a salvo of 12 rockets in 44 seconds, the sources said, adding that the battery of six launchers can neutralise at a time a target area of 3.9 sq km.
The system's capability to incorporate several types of warheads makes it deadly for the enemy as it can even destroy solid structures and bunkers.

well theres a roumour that the latest test was to judge the semi- guidence of the Pinaka for which DRDO guys and some israeli experts were working for last 6 odd years and just like the american counter part its rockets also might have the three stage detonating feature in future (Late or timed brust, impact brust & air brust)

Dont worry, I was merely testing my TEFEL skills, I just got my certificate last week.

The Pinaka will be operated in conjunction with the Indian Army's Fire finder radars and indigenously developed BEL Weapon Locating Radar of which 28 are on order

Read a line on this system in some magazine "the system can make an area about 30-40 kms away in battle field look like Swiss Cheese"
If its true, thats some system
