I hate when ppl spell lose as loose

It was expected after Ghauri test. How india would've remained silent

@Windjammer

Trolling started. This test has been planned months ago. Also these two system are not comparable.

India successfully test-fires nuclear-capable Agni-III ballistic missile
Bhubaneswar: India on Thursday successfully test-fired its nuclear-capable Agni-III ballistic missile, with a range of over 3,000 km, from a base in Odisha, an official said.

The surface-to-surface missile was fired from a launch complex at the Inner Wheeler Island off the coast of Dhamra in Bhadrak district, about 200 km from here.

"It was a user trial. The test was successful," test range director MVKV Prasad told a news agency.

Agni-III is capable of carrying warheads weighing up to 1.5 tonnes. It is 16 metres in length and weighs 48 tonnes. The missile has a two-stage solid propellant system. It can re-enter the atmosphere at a very high velocity.

Agni-III is a rail mobile system capable missile and can be launched from anywhere in India.

Than they should have tested Prithivi

And as if Pakistani tests are decided over night.

@Windjammer @Bratva done with trolling? Now run away...

Nice. Anyone tell me if we fire one A3 to enemy , how much square km area it covers for destruction??

It depends on the nuclear warhead it will carry. Standard 1 MT thermonuclear warhead is enough to destroy a big city completely. But I hope such time never arise.

@Kinetic.....seems you have serious comprehension issues.....must be all this excitement.
Small things amuse little minds.......i guess you have proven that adequately.

only devastation no destruction, entire city will be gone...

Agni-III (IRBM)

Agni-III is an intermediate-range ballistic missile developed by India as the successor to Agni-II. It has a range of 3,500 km- 5,000 km, and is capable of engaging targets deep inside neighbouring countries. The missile’s Circular error probable (CEP) is within 40 meters range, which makes it the most sophisticated and accurate ballistic missile of its range class in the world. In June 2011, it was reported that Agni-III has been inducted into the armed forces and is under-production.

Introduction
India's Minimum Credible Nuclear Deterrence envisages a triad of nuclear counter-strike capability which required a long range missile to provide robust second strike capability. A missile system that can be dispersed far and wide in the Indian mainland, its far flung islands or its blue water naval assets dispersed across the world's oceans. Following this necessity India developed a larger Agni-III missile, with a heavier payload and a longer range but in a compact configuration, i.e. thicker but shorter length. This development is driven by need for a more assured retaliation that can defeat emerging anti ballistic missile (ABM) defence and countermeasures. Such capability requires a compact missile that can also carry ABM counter-measure payloads along with weapons, in a configuration similar to a MIRV, albeit with state-of-the-art decoys. The Deputy Project director who was responsible for the writing of the user handbook manual was Lieutenant Colonel Rajeev Sharma.

Description
Agni III—an intermediate-range ballistic missile—was developed by India as the successor to Agni-II. Designed by the Indian government's Defence Research and Development Organisation, Agni III is a two-stage ballistic missile that is capable of nuclear weapons delivery. It was designed and developed by the Advanced Systems Laboratory (ASL),[citation needed] a unit of DRDO, which was formed in September 2001 with its main objective being the development of large-sized rocket motors. ASL developed the propulsion plant for solid-fuel motors, including the infrastructure for propellant casting. The stubby two-stage solid fuel missile is compact and small enough for easy mobility and flexible deployment on various surface/sub-surface platforms.
The missile is equipped with sophisticated navigation, guidance and control systems along with advanced on-board computer systems. The electronic systems are hardened for higher vibration, thermal and acoustic effects. A high performance indigenous ring laser gyro-based navigation system was flight-tested for the first time during the Agni-III trial on 7 Feb 2010.
The Agni-III has two stages with an overall diameter of two meters. Initially, the first stage mass was about 32 tonnes and 7.7 m long, the second stage mass was about 10 tonnes and 3.3 m long. The missile is likely to support a wide range of warhead configurations, with a 4,500 km range and a total payload weight of 2490 kg.

Weight reduction and missile redesign
DRDO carried out extensive technological enhancement to enhance the performance and to reduce the weight of the Agni-III missile system and to achieve this the entire system was redesigned including the use of maraging steel and a composite motor rocket. The weight of the Agni-III missile has been reduced to 22 tonnes.

Propulsion
The Agni-III features two solid fuelled stages and with overall diameter of 2.0 meters. This diameter is compatible with a recently tested Indian sub-surface launch system, which has a 2.3 meter diameter launch tube aperture.
The first stage booster is made of advanced carbon composite materials to provide high payload fraction (mass fraction). It weighs about 32 tonnes, is 7.7 meters long and diameter of 2 metres. The second stage made of maraging steel weighing about 11 tonnes and a length of 3.3 metres. The second stage has vectoring nozzles, to provide necessary flight trajectory control.

Maneuvering re-entry vehicle Agni RV Mk 4
Agni-III supports a wide range of weapons, with total payload weight ranging from ~600 kg to 1,800 kg including decoys and other ABM countermeasures. Instead of conventional bus architecture, the RV (Re-Entry Vehicle) is self-contained with velocity correction package, navigation and re-entry control systems.
The lighter and tougher RV body has an all-carbon composite re-entry heat shield with multi-directional carbon re-entry nose tip and control surfaces. The new lightweight composites can withstand temperatures of up to 6000 degrees Celsius, and are capable of greater re-entry velocity.

@Windjammer @Bratva done with trolling? Now run away...

Do you know Pakistan has to notify Indian in advance about ballistic missile test? So enough with your pathetic excuse

Instead of satisfying your egos, you could have spend the money on something better like on Modi jee personal security

Sigh!

I was asking for source from trolls!!! Post the news source or run away as usual you do.

 

[kaku1]

Why so much excitement. This is normal SFC test.

Picked a missile from a lot, and tested.

Let me simply some more since whatever you are on is preventing you from thinking clearly. Pakistan notified India about Ghauri missile test in advance. India tested missile the next day so to satisfy some bruised egos
