Nope... Mark II will be just 55km ... Any ways,..

It's 20km to 60km.

Love that fact that you boast about stuff that's not even in the planning stage..

He's talking about Pinaka 2, though with similar name, is another system with 120km range. And is in development.

KRL -122 if not mistaken is a Chinese variant of BM21 Grad, and A100 failed trials with the PLA and they picked Smerch variant PHL03.

India already deploys Smerch and BM21 grads are being replaced by the Pinaka.

Isn't the KRL-122 directly a BM-21 variant, and not related to any Chinese system? In addition, the PHL03 was developed from Smerch subsystems and is not exactly a direct variant; hence, it can be exported.

Why re-invent the wheel mate?

Well Every Military has its own doctrine, Russian MBRL's is getting fitting into Indian New concept. India has now 40 -45- 60-65--120 -150 km covered . No need to give Lic fees to others and can modify as per our own requirement.

these rockets will be guided by Indian sats

Pinaka rockets test fired


BHUBANESWAR: Two rounds of Pinaka rockets were test fired from the range of Proof and Experimental Establishment (PXE), a test facility of DRDO located at Chandipur off Odisha coast, on Monday.

The tests were conducted from a multi-barrel rocket launcher for the second time in last three days. Earlier, two rounds of the rockets were successfully test fired from the same range on Saturday. Defence sources said the tests were conducted in a bid to incorporate a new ‘guidance system’ in the rocket system which had successfully demonstrated its capability during Kargil war by neutralising enemy positions on mountain tops. “Since then, several improvements have been made in Pinaka rocket system and its Mark-II version also has been developed with enhanced strike range,” said a defence official and added that the new guidance system, once incorporated, would make the system more lethal.

Pinaka is the first indigenous rocket system successfully designed, developed and produced by the ARDE with the help of private industries. The system’s capability to incorporate several types of warheads makes it deadly for the enemy as it can even destroy their solid structures and bunkers.

Still waiting for a source that says Nasr is a quasi ballistic missile.
