India creates 60 – 170 km Pragati – Surface to Surface Tactical Missile System

http://*****************/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Pragati-Missile.jpg

New Delhi: India’s premier Defense Research establishment DRDO has created a new 60 – 170 km Pragati Missile System. Short range solid fuel Pragati Missile is battlefield tactical missile system capable of neutralizing identified targets and providing an effective counter force weapon system. It has all weather Day and Night operational launch capability. The missile has quick reaction from command to launch in ripple firing mode of less than 5 sec from same launcher. The missile is capable of carrying various types of conventional warhead of approx. 200 Kgs. The missile system has capability of deployment in stand-alone mode or centralised mode. Physical dimensions are 0.42 m diameter and 7.4 meter length.

Pragati missile has integrated onboard avionics system to reduce the size. it uses Jet-vanes based Thrust Vector Control (TVC) during the boost phase. Another important characteristics of the missile is use of Aero-Dynamic Control (ADC) using electromechanical actuator (EMA) system for the remaining flight trajectory.

With a state of art RLG based Inertial Navigation System aided by Satellite Navigation, Pragati Missile boasts of a precision accuracy of CEP < 20 meters. The missile has a maximum velocity of 4 M and a total flight time of 120 – 360 seconds.

The missile system has quick deployment with salvo firing capability. The system includes One Battery Control Center (BCC) command & Control four launchers via Fiber Optic/LOS wireless link.

The Mobile Launcher System (MLS) is configured on High Mobility Vehicle (HMV) 12×12, 8×8, & 6×6, for six, four and two canisterised missiles respectively. The MLS is an all electro-mechanical auto leveling and articulation system for easy deployment and maintenance free operation. MSL is configured on the state of art computer based launcher control system for automatic operation powered through dedicated on board DG sets or PTO. The first ever public display of Pragati Missile system will be at Exhibition ADEX-2013 scheduled to be held at KINTEX, Seoul, South Korea from 29 Oct – 3 Nov 2013.

Thanks for info
 
So dose that mean that India too taking the rout of western nation to export water down versions?

No nation exports the most advanced version of any weapon it produces

The most advanced version of the weapon or most advanced tech is always reserved for domestic use only.
 
Thanks for info

CEP of Pragati is very low compare to Prahar. Initially it was revealed as 10m<. Subsequently Avinash chander raveled it 2 meter. Naturally you won't sell your best to other countries.
 
Ever heard about Area denial?
The water obstacles might be enough to stop Indian armoured advance in Punjab area, but in Areas like the southern desert Nasr can be used without heavy repercussions
India does not differentiate between a tactical nuke and any other nuke. Even if pak uses Nasr, India will retaliate in full scale against all pak cities. And, your air defense system is useless. :D

Only keyboard warriors says that. Indian army is much smarter, They are not willing to sacrifice whole nation for a nuke used on Indian division on Pakistani soil. The needs of many outweighs needs of few. Going nuclear for 10-20 K soldier and brought destruction for 5-10 million people. Not possible.

To sum up the post, you are idiot with wet dreams.

1) This is our declared policy. We will go for full scale nuke attack even if a single Nasr is used.( Check our Nuclear policy first)

2) We know Pakistan's capabilities and our own air defense system.:D

well he is not wrong at all. Its our nuclear policy that 'we'll not use nuclear weapons first but if we are attacked by even a tactical nuclear weapon then we'll retaliate massively'.

Empty hollow words. I stand by my words. Your generals are much more sensible. By attacking massively means, Conventional Ballistic missile would be used extensively to degrade Pakistani infrastructure not that Retaliate massively with nukes

Your policy looks good on paper but in reality it isn't
India will never sacrifice millions of people for a thousand or so soldiers.
And your BMD is useless incase of all out Nuclear attack

I wonder,why Nuclear??Pakistan can easily get weapons like CBU-105 and use it on infantry.or in case of war,they can make minefield,or they can use arty as Area Denial Weapons.they've enough weapons to face IA,why nukes when it generally going to be the last resort.

plus a single Nasr,if used will be a deathblow to Pakistan.even if India never retaliate,even if it was stopped Nuclear War Escalation,Pakistan will be banned form International Community,not to count any fierce retaliation by any other neighbour or USA.

also,nuking its own area will destroy its two most important area of Pakistan,one is Pakistani Punjab-Lahore and Multan,or if farther south,Karachi.not by Explosion,but Radiation.
 
Stick to the topic gentlemen. Let us not discuss the rules of nuclear engagement here.

Who told you that our BMD would be useless in case of a Nuke attack?AAD and PDV combo can take on missiles with 2000 km range.

An All out Nuclear attack! A barrage of BMs, no way
