Upgraded interceptor missile successfully hits virtual target

BALASORE: As part of efforts to develop a full fledged multi-layer Ballistic Missile Defence system, India today test-fired its indigenously developed supersonic interceptor missile, capable of destroying any incoming ballistic missile, from a test range off Odisha coast.

The anti-ballistic missile, called AAD ( Advanced Air Defence) took off at 9.40 a.m. from the A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Wheeler Island soon after it received the command to waylay and destroy an incoming target missile.
India's Ballistic Missile Defence capability received a boost on Sunday with the successful launch of an upgraded version of the interceptor missile against an electronically simulated target missile over the Bay of Bengal.
The anti-ballistic missile, called AAD ( Advanced Air Defence), took off at 9.40 a.m. from the A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Wheeler Island soon after it received the command to waylay and destroy an incoming target missile in the endo-atmosphere (below 40 km altitude) after the conditions for the latter were electronically simulated without the actual launch of the missile.
Conditions similar to the launch of a target missile from Balasore were simulated electronically and upon receiving its coordinates, the interceptor missile, travelling at supersonic speed, engaged and destroyed the "virtual target" in mid-flight.
India plans to deploy a two-tiered Ballistic Missile Defence system to protect important cities and vital installations from enemy attack. The first phase seeks to destroy incoming enemy missiles of 2,000 km range, while the second phase envisages killing incoming missiles of more than 2,000 km
With Sunday's mission, Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has conducted 11 interceptor missile tests. While eight of the missions were in endo-atmosphere, the remaining were in exo-atmosphere. Nine of the missions had been successful.
 
yes.

We must make it clear that our response shall be massive in case we are attacked with any nuclear device whether tactical or otherwise.
its correct but first we have to make us defend able from both Nuclear blastic and cruise missiles because without it Indian policy thinkers will remain in two minds how to reply against Tactical attack, once have shield it will definitely according to stated Policy.
Secondly I see india is already working impressively to create layered defense against both of blastic and cruise targets
 
Indian policy thinkers will remain in two minds how to reply against Tactical attack

You assuming India only started to realize TNW in the year 2015? India realized this threat in 2007, and as "PROPORTIONATE:" response India was developing Ballistic Tactical missiles,

But then question is why India dumped all the plans of developing TNW in 2012? Did Indian Army created new doctrine to deter TNW, or there is something else?
 
Make a Shield for India first. Itself is a big potent weapon. (same as Isreal, Russia and US).

India want to keep things simpler there is nothing "PROPORTIONATE:" if they slap India will slap back with full force causing unacceptable damage. This doctrine is to deter enemy using Nuclear chemical or biological means on Indian land or outside land . This doctrine creating confusion in enemy mind and they will think 1000 times before striking small or big.

LoL

There is no such thing. Think before you comment.
Intercept a nuclear warhead over Delhi.
Imagine what will happen ?
Firstly correct your knowledge then bark here, otherwise no one will listen you
 
At what stage of incoming missile flight can it be intercepted ?
Fists it is not to save complete Indian land it will save Imp. Installations, cities, and high strategic values to give back reply It cant protect farm lands. Its a two stage endo and exo, you can search abt it on net.

At which stage Arrow & THAAD intercept IRBMs?

India want to keep things simpler there is nothing "PROPORTIONATE:" if they slap India will slap back with full force causing unacceptable damage.

But this is true India dumped the plan to develop TNW, and no more even deterred with Pakistanis TNW.
 
Well Congrats to Indians but i have a simple question a missile (nuclear ) is set detonate 30 KM above the surface before this interceptor destroys it.then i think indians radars and these interceptors will be useless an EM Wave will be produced and 70 % indian will be blackout for 20 minutes then these systems are useless.
