Yes, it has ECCM capability. But that is not part of Active radar homing. Active radar homing is a guidance technique. Basically ARH means that missile has its own radar which is activated once missile reaches sufficiently close to the target aircraft. The missile then uses that radar to follow...

Astra has active radar homing, i.e. it has its own radar for terminal phase guidance. It is used for guidance, not to avoid jamming.

In the case of SARH SAMs, since the guidance radar doesn't have to turn around to avoid interception as in the case of SARH AAMs, shouldn't the SARH SAM be as good as an ARH SAM? Probably it would be even better than ARH SAM since it will be much difficult to jam a ground based radar as compared...

but Nasr is not a SAM, they can at least use its nuclear capability.....

i repeat again, the news of Akash being nuclear capable is probably a hoax, SAMs are primarily defensive missiles, means they will strike in our territory itself, who would want the radiation from a nuclear tipped missile...

yes, but how can it be used??? is there any practical application for it....i am not trying to disprove anyone but i think the news of akash being nuclear capable is a hoax, why would DRDO waste its energies in a research which has got no particular application......

wat would u do with a nuclear capable SAM, nuke flying city???

there is nothing like a nuclear capable SAM.......SAM stands for surface to air missile....

they are not slow, BEL just doesn't has required production capability.....thats why they are going to construct a new plant somewhere in the south which will primary manufacture Aakash....
