BALASORE: India on Friday test-fired nuclear-capable Nirbhay cruise missile with range of 700-100km from Balasore in Odisha.

It was the second developmental trial of the missile.

The first test was conducted on March 12, 2013 from the same base. However, "the flight had to be terminated mid-way, as deviations were observed from its intended course," said an official.

India has with its arsenal 290km range supersonic "BrahMos" cruise missile which is jointly developed by India and Russia. But 'Nirbhay' with long range capability is a different kind of missile being developed by the Aeronautical development Establishment (ADE), a DRDO lab in Bangalore.

Nirbhay has good loitering capability, good control and guidance, high degree of accuracy in terms of impact and very good stealth features, the official said.

Hurray!!!
I'm placing one trial order
More news please on the features of this missile

The best part is that it is highly maneuverable and can loiter in the area selecting targets and then home on, using intrinsic artificial intelligence imbedded into its guidance system!

I hope that they induct this fast the moment it is successful. We badly need subsonic cruise missiles on our warships as well as land based batteries. One of the successful Russian tactics is firing thousands of cheaper subsonic missiles rather than a few dozen Yakhonts that would be a total pocket rip off.

Similarly we should save BrahMos for more important targets (till we can ourselves increase its range by circumventing the MTCR that Russia is bound by) but use this to rain on enemy targets in times of conflict.

India has successfully tested its Nirbhay Cruise Missile

So Indians you basically like us just have copied Tomahawk Missile and with same Range like our Babur 700 KM

Don't burn with jealousy, man. Learn to accept India's missile superiority.

And then, your Babur is just a fire and forget missile without any sophisticated guidance system. In contrast Nirbhay is an 'intelligent' highly maneuverable missile with artificial intelligence which helps it to loiter in the area like a drone, select its target and and then homes on to it.

It's a quantum leap in technology compared to your Babur.

FOR GOD sake its a clear cut copy mate just like we did in fact now it seems to be more copy of Babur because it has exactly same range and your Indians were screaming on this forum like you are coming up with some thing original

Damn you are a mathematics genius
In terms of range.
1 Babar = 1/2 Nirbhay
So we copied half babur
Damn!! Hail you!
Do you want people to bow down to you! That's the reason geniuses like you are present in Pakistan and you are good at paint job.
No Offence. M8!!
