The Best Missile of 21st Century

[Ambitious.Asian]

GWALIORefence Research and Development Organisation Director General Vijay Kumar Saraswat on Friday said the Agni-V missile, which took 30 years to be developed, was the best such thing in the 21st century.

Agni-V is an intercontinental ballistic missile developed by the DRDO. It is part of the Agni series of missiles, one of the missile systems under the original Integrated Guided Missile Development Programme.

At a felicitation function at ITM University in Gwalior, Saraswat said the making of the missile had become possible because of the support and cooperation of people like former prime minister late Indira Gandhi and former scientific advisor A P J Abdul Kalam

"Such people had great vision and this helped in the successful making of the missile," he said.

The DRDO director general said the making of the missile had given him happiness and satisfaction and induced hope that challenges of the future would be met successfully.

The missile could not have been made without the work done by young scientists who were full of self-confidence, he said.

He thanked the university for felicitating him in the city of his Birth.

On the occasion, Chhattisgarh Governor Shekhar Dutt said the development in the country should be done on the lines of Japan and Germany.

Have you gone nuts.
The best missile of 21st century would probably come around 2090's unless China has been destroyed before and world peace established.

The destruction of china would lead to the annihilation of all its enemies like India

India's efforts in making an 5k missile is appreciated,
but claims like these will make Bharat a clown.

^^ i agree with you

though A 5 is very good, it is not best missile of 21st century

probably he meant A 5 is best BM among BM developed till now (this part of 21st century)

even then he is wrong, as best BM as of now are Trident II and Topol M

Best such for who? And there's over 100 years left in this century, even India (or it's 56 small pieces) will have produced a better state by then

I think the secretary do not follow latest news. 2,3 days ago Russia tested an IBM which was able to penetrate Nato defence shield.
even they did not claimed to be best missile of the century. this is subcontinent craze. these type of people make fool of themselves and making fun of their country.
