How many types of Ballistic missiles India has deployed?

[shaheenmissile]

Ballistic missiles India has? Deployed,not under test.?

3 types of Liquid fuel Prithvi.
4 types Agni? out of which Agni 5 isn't deployed yet and Agni-1 status isn't sure if still in service or withdrawn and Agni 2 and Agni 4 are almost same with same design fired on lifted trajectory to increase range as Agni 4.

That leaves India with only 3 fat Prithvi with no multi launch capabilities as Prithvi is too fat and liquid fueled.
Prahar, Dhanush and K series not deployed yet.
And 3 types of Agni. Total 6 types of Ballistic missiles?

On the other hand Pakistan has Ghauri 1 and Ghauri 2. Then 4 types of shaheen and then Nasr,Abdali and Ghaznavi.
Total 7 types of Ballistic missiles deployed,considering Ghauri 1 and 2 same with different ranges.
Shaheen's status unknown if still deployed or withdrawn, but Shaheen-1, Shaheen-1A and Shaheen 2 deployed. Then Nasr,Abdali,Ghaznavi.
Total 7.

I pretty sure Agni 5 is in production, but not yet deployed.

edit - it is under production

"The Agni 5 is no longer in development phase. It is in production and induction phase and hence transfers are routine since the services of an officer can be used somewhere else. A new person to take care of production is also brought in," a source said.

Agni 5's developmental cycle was very fast. Props to DRDO on that.


K15 is in production, will be trialed at sea from Arihant soon. Deployed after sea trials.

Prithvi 1 2 3 + Agni 1 2 3 + Prahar + Shaurya = 8
Edit : Not sure about the status of Dhanush.

 

[Water Car Engineer]

Prithvi 1 2 3 + Agni 1 2 3 + Prahar + Sagarika + Dhanush = 9

Agni 4 is inducted, Prahaar isnt, dont know why the army is waiting on it.

Prahar won't be inducted, however could be exported.

Whats your caption of superboy dsi all about.

When was Nase inducted in PA -- Link for the induction, not the test.

 

[surya kiran]

Prahaar isnt, dont know why the army is waiting on it.

As per DRDO, Prahaar is the replacement for Prithvi 1. Same is already underway.

Prahar won't be inducted, however could be exported.

That is Pragati. The export variant.

@shaheenmissile

Agni II was operationalised in 2010.
Agni III was operationalised in 2011.
Agni IV (also known as Agni II Prime) was operationalised end 2013/2014
Agni V needs one more test as per DRDO

Dhanush can be fired by 2 of the Sukanya class OPVs, though whether it is deployed is unknown.

Shaurya was inducted as of 2011.

Agni 5 and probably Agni 4 too are not much effective onon Pakistan due to minimum range restrictions. Both will only hit Pakistan if fired from Indian east coast or south coast.

If you want one we can deliver it from Andaman

Reason is simple. India has failed to miniaturize nukes unlike Pakistan. As prahar can only carry 200kg or less,there are no nukes for it. But big fat Prithvi can carry 500kg or larger nukes which India has.
That's why no point in retiring Prithvi and replacing it with Prahar as gun is there,bullet isn't.

This also puts India's MREV/ MIRV capability as warheads have to be miniaturized for above capabilities.

What are you smoking? The whole putting a nuke in a tactical ballistic missile was never something India even wanted.

Prahaar was supposed to be given to the Indian artillery corps, not to be under the strategic forces command umbrella. They're even trying to export the system as well.

And Agni 6 is MIRVed, they're in very advanced stages of it. Future SLBMs too.

India and tactical nukes are same as Fox and grapes. Since India can't have them,they pretend they don't want them.
About the "Diagrams " you posted, they are just that, just Diagrams.

Well Indian nuclear doctrine is not to use nuke first and retaliate heavily even is smaller nuke is fired upon as stated by our official. Also battlefield nukes are for those who can't deter superior forces in conventional war and this is precisely why you developed one.
Anyway our smallest deployed warhead (17 kt) wrights only 180 kg and id fit for deployment on Nirbhay, Prahaar, K-15 etc like missiles while biggest are 150 kt FBF(550 kg) and 200 kt thermonuclear ( 340 kg) which will be carried by Agni-1,2,3,4,5 and K-4.

By the way we have a 0.5 kt tacticle warhead too( un boosted version of 17kt FBF) weighing only 100 kg but Its not deployed as doesn't suit in our doctrine.

Lmao, says you. Never was there any intention of it having nukes. From the get-go it was aimed to be equipped to the regular artillery corps, again get that through your head.

The diagrams are presented by the former DRDO head himself.
