Prithvi Interceptor Missile

India successfully conducted an interceptor missile test off the Odisha coast today, achieving a major milestone in developing a two-layer Ballistic Missile Defence system, the defence sources said.

India today successfully tested a "Star Wars"-like system of an incoming enemy missile being destroyed by another missile. India has become the fourth country in the world to master the technology of hitting a missile with a missile. In the test carried out at 9:45 am from Wheeler Island off the coast of Odisha, a direct hit destroyed an incoming h...

India on Saturday successfully tested a Star Wars-type interceptor missile that can hit an incoming ballistic missile, achieving a significant milestone in the direction of developing a two-layered Ballistic Missile Defence system. The interceptor was launched from Abdul Kalam Island (Wheeler Island) off Odisha coast at 8 am that morning.

As part of its plan to deploy a two-layer ballistic missile defence system, India today successfully test-fired its indigenously developed supersonic interceptor missile from the Integrated Test Range off Odisha coast.

In a leap forward to fortify its skies, India today successfully test-fired its indigenously developed interceptor missile which destroyed a 'hostile' target ballistic missile, a modified Prithvi, at an altitude of 16 km over the Bay of Bengal.The 'hostile' target ballistic missile, a modified surface-to-surface 'Prithvi', was first lifted off from...

The interceptor missile test off the Orissa coast ran into serious trouble on Monday, because co-ordination between Launch Pad 3 and Launch Pad 4 used for the exercise failed.
