The Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO) has successfully conducted flight tests for the new generation ballistic missile known as “Agni Prime.” Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam Island, off the coast of Odisha, was the site of a ballistic missile test for the “Agni Prime.” All goals were effectively shown during the flight test, a defense ministry spokesman reported on Thursday.
After three successful developmental tests of the missile, the Ministry reports that this was the first pre-induction night launch carried out by the users, proving the precision and dependability of the system. The experiment was carried out on June 7 at night. The ministry stated that at the terminal point, range instrumentation including radar, telemetry, and electro optical tracking systems were deployed at various sites, including two down-range ships, to collect flight data spanning the whole trajectory of the vehicle.
Senior DRDO and Strategic Forces Command personnel were present for the successful flight test, which opened the door for the system’s introduction into the Armed Forces. Rajnath Singh, the defence minister, complimented DRDO and the Armed Forces on their achievement and the “Agni Prime’s” textbook performance.
The teams from the DRDO laboratories and the users engaged in the test launch were recognized for their contributions by the Secretary of the Department of Defence Research and Development and Chairman of the DRDO, Dr. Samir V. Kamat.
