Agni Prime Missile
India is likely to conduct a missile test from Abdul Kalam island, off the coast of Odisha in the Indian Ocean, next month.
The Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) issued by India suggests that the test will be conducted between 7 to 8 June, and the missile is supposed to fly out to more than 1,680 km.
Just three weeks ago, on 22 April, the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and Indian Navy conducted the country's first-ever sea-based trial of an endo-atmospheric interceptor missile.
Experts believe that the notification could likely be for a test launch of a medium-range ballistic missile like Agni-P.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
