Few facts about Agni V

1). India will break into the exclusive ICBM club of six countries including the United States, Russia, United Kingdom, China and France once the 50-tonne Agni-V is ready for induction by 2014-2015, although some others say unless India acquires an 8,000 km range missile, it cannot be said to be in this club. But DRDO scientists are sticking to their claim.

2). The Agni series of missiles, including Agni-V, is crucial for India's defence vis-a-vis China since Beijing has upped the ante in recent times by deploying missiles in Tibet Autonomous Region bordering India

3)Tipped to be a game changer by DRDO Chief Dr VK Saraswat, Agni-V will extend India's reach all over Asia, parts of Africa and parts of Europe.

4). Once fired, it cannot be stopped. It travels faster than a bullet and can carry 1,000 kilograms of nuclear weapons. It can be launched using a special canister. Why, it can even be launched from a roadside!

5). With a range of 5,000 km, Agni-V, once validated and inducted into the armed forces after several more tests, will be India's longest-range missile to carry a nuclear warhead. It will have the capacity to carry a nuclear warhead weighing over a tonne.

6). Agni-V will give India the technological know-how to launch many nuclear warheads using the same missile.

7). Agni-V can be configured to launch small satellites and can be used later even to shoot down enemy satellites in orbits.

8). The missile can be launched only after a decision by the Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS).

9). Seventeen metres tall, Agni-V's three-stages are powered by solid propellants. The first rocket engine takes it to a height of about 40 kilometres. The second stage pushes it to about 150 kilometres. The third stage takes it to about 300 kilometres above the Earth. The missile finally reaches a height of about 800 kilometers.

so how many minutes/hours it will take to travel 5000 km, if AgniV travels at speed more than bullet.

speed of bullet ranges from 200 to 1500 m/s

I have never seen such hype for an indian missile test.Hope it will hit target.:meeting: #Twitter #Tv #fb

Agni V can carry a one-ton payload (meaning a nuclear warhead) and is configured for carrying multiple warheads which can be guided to separate targets independently — thereby giving the missile a MIRV (multiple independently targeted re-entry vehicle) capability. This is a major technological achievement combining as it does guidance and control with miniaturisation of the warhead. Thus, Agni V will be fitted with a PBCV (post boost control vehicle) and a rigorous post-launch technical evaluation will establish the credibility of the missile and its MIRV index.

is MIRV confirmed for the test ...? :what:


All you wanted to know about Agni V - Analysis - DNA

waiting...................waiting...............and still waiting...............

Question for anyone who knows better about missile testing.

What the hell they gone use as payload ??? Concrete block ???
 
.
Just saw report on times now .. Range is 5000-6000 km with a pay load of 1000 kg
 
.
Unfortunately, Missile have covered a range more then 10,000 kms. Core committee of ISRO have conducted a meeting to decide whether it was successful or failed :lol:
Just kidding dude.

Test has been scheduled for 7PM

If this really happens ;)

And if hit has indeed hit a foreign country, what would be the consequences :D
