INDIA BUILDING REUSABLE MISSILES

Article Abstract:

Mr APJ Abdul Kalam has stated in an interview that India is trying to build a long-range missile capable of carrying a nuclear warhead which can be used nearly 100 times. The design of the missile is in the conceptual stage. It will be completed in 3-4 years. It is a combination of aircraft cruise missile and remotely piloted vehicle. The reusable missile can travel at hypersonic speed. It will be made of composite material to prevent detection by radar. The Defence Research and Development Organisation plans to make a formal proposal to the Ministry of Defence for funding. (vv)

Article Abstract:

India was successful in test-firing the 650-kg Akash surface-to- air missile at Chandipur-on-Sea near Balasore in Orissa on August 3, 1998. Akash missile can force intruding aircraft to fly at a very low level from 20 km across border reducing their range and bomb load. Akash's unique features include its capacity to strike several targets simultaneously. Akash can deliver 55 kilograms of both conventional and nuclear explosives and has a range of 25 kilometres. Akash uses integrated two-stage ramjet propulsion technology. (gs)
