Interceptor Missile Test-Fired from Odisha Coast
Developed by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), the 7.5 metre tall interceptor weapon system can effectively destroy incoming enemy missiles at low altitude.
A part of the country’s credible ballistic missile defence (BMD) programme, the interceptor is one of the best missiles in its class.
Reportedly, India also test-fired its indigenously developed Prithvi missile by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) from the launch pad-3 of Interim Test Range (ITR) at Chandipur in Balasore at 10.10 am today.

India was the first country to score a direct hit in first trial. Our BMD program has come a long way . It is the time to start covering Delhi and Bombay followed by Metros. This can give us a great protection against incoming missiles from a range of 2000 KM. An LRSAM based long range SAM of 250 to 270 KM range is in making. We will test that very soon and that will add a lot to Desi military muscles.

China is busy with S Korea on THAAD, and now this!
THAAD was too natural a response for NK using N word (not American one) again and again. Unfortunately for China, its second best friend also likes N word too much. So China is getting The great wall built around itself which is negative return to investments.

Spot on you nailed it Bro but some of our colleagues on PDF is not going to like your post. In order to show their dissatisfaction against your post they will bring LCA, Arjun, Nirbhay, etc. and please prepare yourself for fire work like : Megaton, Halfton, Quarterton, Tactical & new lamp with 3 warheads (MIRV). I sincerely hope you will survive with these shocks.
Regards,

Indigenously developed supersonic interceptor missile successfully test-fired
PTI | Last Updated: Wednesday, March 1, 2017 - 12:32

Balasore: India on Wednesday successfully test-fired its indigenously developed supersonic interceptor missile capable of destroying any incoming enemy ballistic missile at low altitude.
This the second time that the missile has been test-fired in less than a month and is part of an effort to put in place a multi-layer missile defence system.
"Today's test launch was conducted in order to validate various parameters of the interceptor in flight mode," a defence official said, adding that it was a low altitude trial.
The interceptor was engaged against a target which was a Prithvi missile launched from launch complex 3 of the Integrated Test Range (ITR) at Chandipur near here, taking up the trajectory of a hostile ballistic missile.
The target missile was launched at about 10.10 hours from Chandipur.
After about four minutes the interceptor, Advanced Air Defence (AAD) missile positioned at Abdul Kalam Island in the Bay of Bengal, getting signals from tracking radars, roared through its trajectory to destroy the incoming hostile missile in mid-air, in an endo-atmospheric altitude, the official said.
"The mission was excellent and it was a direct hit," said a scientist of the Defence Research Development Organisation (DRDO).
The interceptor is a 7.5-meter long single stage solid rocket propelled guided missile equipped with a navigation system, a hi-tech computer and an electro-mechanical activator, the official said.
The interceptor missile had its own mobile launcher, secure data link for interception, independent tracking and homing capabilities and sophisticated radars, the official added.
On February 11, an incoming hostile ballistic missile target was successfully intercepted at high altitude, above 50 km of the earth's atmosphere by an exo-atmospheric interceptor missile off the Odisha coast.
Earlier, a low altitude (endo-atmospheric) test of AAD missile was successfully test launched on May 15, 2016 from the same base.
