Answer you homo Chorgupta lover.
The Prahar can very well be sold to Vietnam.It beats the US ATACMS and Israelly EXTRA hands down in all(range,warhead,accuracy,missiles per launcher,speed,cost)aspects.Moreover Prahar will be extremely helpful in defencive purposes as they can be fitted with all kind of warhead configurations and used against both infantry,armor and artillery.In a future war against PRC, the Prahar can wreck havoc on the PLA.
But in my view,DRDO should also start developing an extended range version of Prahar missile with atleast 360-400 km range to counter those chinse 400mm strategic MBRLs with a stated range of 300 km.
Though Prithvi 2 can be used but their 4 hour long refulling time make them some what 'unfit' for tactical battlefield counter battery weapons.
REGARDS....
That's excellent! However, just a couple of points.Army’s “Cold Start” doctrine gets teeth
By Ajai Shukla
Business Standard, 22nd July 11
India’s ability to win a quick, pre-emptive war against Pakistan has just been enhanced by a useful new set of teeth. This morning, at a missile test range in Balasore, Orissa, the Defence R&D Organisation (DRDO) launched its first-ever Prahaar missile, a mobile, truck-mounted rocket that can strike within 10 metres of a target that is 150 kilometres away.
The Prahaar gives a huge boost to India’s military doctrine of “Cold Start”. This method of war would be adopted as retaliation for any grave Pakistani provocation, such as another 26/11 Mumbai-style terror attack. Cold Start involves multiple, simultaneous invasions of Pakistani territory with quickly assembled Indian Army battle groups, well before Pakistani forces can reach the border and occupy defensive positions. The Prahaar would provide the army’s invading battle groups with lethal fire support, striking Pakistani headquarters far behind the frontlines, and destroying roads, railways, bridges and other communications infrastructure that are essential for rushing Pakistani forces to the border.

150 km in 195 seconds mean very high speed. The actual speed must be Mach 4+.
Prahaar missile test fired successfully
congracts to all indian members
Ohh DRDO you have done it again, first they develop prithvi missile, then they converted it into interceptor missile, now after some upgradation they have converted it into Prahaar rocket, after some modification i am sure they will be able to fire it from Bofors or insas.......
That's excellent! However, just a couple of points.
Firstly, do our politicians have the balls to give a 'go' for a Cold Start' if there's another attack by proxy by Pakistan? Simple answer - NO!
Secondly, the wherewithal required for a cold start is not yet in place. We are still scouting around for state of the art mobile artillery, new APCs, signal communications, mobile air defence batteries co-opted with combat groups and other resources required to operate swiftly over desert terrain.
Another vital issue is maintaining air superiority over the theater of ops where the 'deep strike' forces are operating, for an extended period. This is going to be fairly difficult considering that the Pak Air Force is no push over! And then there's the vulnerability of logistics nodes and supply lines projecting into the adversary's territory.
Cold Start - easier said than done! Even if we introduce the Prahaar!
According to speed=distance/time, the Parhaar missile traveled at a average speed of 2.32 Mach not 4+.
Yes, I would be happy to see Parhaar missile pulverise enemy's with a speed of over 4+ Mach.
