is this report authentic. agni 5 is not 10000 km range at all. its 5000 km range which on reduced payload may go to 6000-6500 km but not a farther than these limits.
With Russian help, India to join ICBM big league soon

Are you sure? The 5000km or 10000km makes no difference for us, but the same cannot be said for USA.

“Agni-5 will take us to a level of 5,000-kilometer-plus . . . missile systems, which meets all our threat requirements,” says V.K. Saraswat, chief of India’s Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO).
However, Saraswat adds, “Though India has the capability of developing long-range missiles, we are not developing any intercontinental ballistic missiles. Our threat perception today doesn’t require developing any ICBMs.”
Nonetheless, “whether it is a 5000-kilometer-range missile or a 10,000-kilometer range one, it requires the same technology,” Saraswat said today. “Only the magnitude of the rocket motor, the size of the rocket motor, or the diameter of the missile changes. But the science and technology remain the same.”

Ya that is why I said the US is not scared, besides they wont. (their military might is not something which is scared of any thing.)

Not scared, but unpleasant at least. Since they don't like more coming nations developing the capability to hit on their soil.

it is illegal for any country to share ballistic missile technology Russia would not risk international condemnation by giving India technology since they have signed MTCR and the USA would have been barking already this article is crap since Agni V just lies in the IRBM category but a 10,000km seeker? anyone with half a brain could have figured this out
