The shaurya guys i have talked with them in Defexpo they are saying they are developing as a alternative to Agni.

Also with the range of 5000 kms

both are hot-dog rocket for targeting ground. SY-400 doesn't have the same flight path as other other rockets, like the one DRDO are boasting that's new kind..

Its indeed new. Shourya is a long range strategic missile while SY-400 is a long range MRLS. So incomparable.

this is the modified df-21 flight path

Prithvi has same flight path. Check it. But Shourya is different.

i think its first in its class.

i think its first in its class.

DTBM's or quasi ballistic missiles are many in number. Though I will agree that Shaurya might have the longest range among them!

here are a few examples of depressed trajectory (Quasi ballistic missile) which are all capable of lower trajectory flights & maneuvering...

Shaurya (added later: Note the mock up is NOT shaurya)

LORA

SS-21 (Tochka)

Iskander

ATACMS
