Doesn't look like. The cone on top is way too pointy to accommodate multiple warheads.

It's a single warhead, but it can be equipped with multiple warheads.

^^

This looks shorter than what I thought It'll look like.

I thought it'll look like this..

And it's supposed to be fired from a canister.

The blue part? I think it extends further down.

Well mate if you take out those connector joints it will look smaller, but you see the extra stage so I guess its fine.

Why was the numbering skipped from Agni III to Agni V?

When it will be tested?

I guess very soon considering it already(couple of days) already on the island.

There is Agni IV, it was tested already and was successful.

Has India tested any MIRV warheads ? I have never heard of such news in papers.

We have never done it, but considering that ISRO has the capabilities to launch multiple satellites and place them in exact orbits, is considered to be the same technology as the MIRV.


Accidentally put DRDO, I meant ISRO, so if ISRO is sharing the know how, I think it is possible for India to have MIRV capabilities.

 

[Tija]

Eagerly waiting finger crossed. All the best DRDO.

 

[Varunastra]

Best of luck DRDO..............hope you people make India proud

It does, but that is just fuel for final re-entry maneuvers. For this to be an MIRV, the top needs to accommodate multiple warheads in tandem, not underneath each other.
