Agni V Missile

[asianobserve]

Who told ? Now i get the reason why NK is so eager to test an ICBM

Just imagine the UNSC with NoKor as a permanent member! That's be hilarious.

I don't think India will stop at 8,000 km ballistic missile. In the next decade we could see Agni VI which can cover the West and can be tipped with MIRVs...

worth full read, but the most important part is

IBNLive : Saurav Jha's Blog : Trajectory of fire: Agni V

Now, while an Agni V locked and loaded sitting in a canister somewhere in India is not exactly what China likes to hear first thing in the morning, the middle kingdom could actually have more to worry about. The Agni V's re-entry vehicle a.k.a warhead shown in the released pictures may turn out to be rather maneuverable making things difficult for emerging Chinese terminal course anti-ballistic missile (ABM) defences. Indeed, an article in Global Times about the Agni V (for those who came late, Global Times is the Chinese Communist Party's tabloidish mouthpiece) may have indirectly acknowledged this when it quotes a Chinese analyst saying, towards the end of the piece, that "for the sake of regional stability, China should continue to develop defense systems against ballistic missile threats," and added that, "China successfully conducted its first ground-based mid-course ballistic missile interception experiment in January 2010, becoming the second country in the world to conduct this kind of missile defence test." Incidentally, the third stage of the Agni V is a conical motor which allows for greater acceleration in flight and makes it more difficult for mid-course interceptors to tackle it.

Then what where you talking about the west knowing we got an missile that can reach them?

Tarmak007 -- A bold blog on Indian defence: Made in India: Anti-satellite (A-SAT), all-composite, intelligent missiles next target: Avinash Chander

Bangalore: Thursday's 5,000-km-plus sky part of Agni-5 missile might have put India among a select-group of countries having ICBM-capabilities. But, the icing on the cake is the confidence shown by DRDO's tech-gurus in developing systems which were denied to India. With Agni-5 turning a blockbuster, DRDO has set its eye now on bigger and bolder missions.
During a telephonic interview with Express from Wheeler Island, Avinash Chander, DRDO's Chief Controller (Missiles and Strategic Systems) and Agni-5 Project Director was as cool as a cucumber, despite the smashing hit. "Our next aim is to put satellites to orbit at very short notice using missiles. We can launch low-cost micro-satellites into the orbit with a payload of 60 kg. It can be used for intelligence-gathering purpose and launched within few hours of notice," Avinash said.

According to him, the next big challenge for DRDO is to master the MIRV (Multiple independently-targeted re-entry vehicles) and MaRV (Manoeuvring re-entry vehicles (MaRV) technologies. "Our next aim is maneuvering warheads for long-range missiles. We want to develop intelligent missiles with highly-accurate warheads for future. Missiles that could counter an incoming missile, by predicting its trajectory is the key," Avinash said. He said that DRDO is hovering around the idea of developing missiles with anti-satellite capabilities too.
He said the scientists are already on a mission mode to develop an all-composite missile for the future. "A full composite missile with a high-degree of precision. We are moving faster and now we have the technologies to boot. We will have missiles with less radar cross sections soon. The user is part of our thought-process right from the word go. The user has become an integral part and hence the ownership has gone up many folds with all our new projects," Avinash said.
Among the new technologies used onboard Agni-5 are Ring Laser Gyro-based Inertial Navigation System (RINS), Micro Inertial Navigation System (MINS), high speed onboard computer based on power-PC design, light-weight composite motors and 100 per cent home-grown software. "The INS worked in dual redundancy configuration. Agni-V uses a three-stage propulsion system and it has onboard less cabling, multi-sensors among others. Around 80 per cent of Agni-5 is made in India, making it a truly value-for-money-weapon," Avinash said.

West will make a big issue out of it if we test a 8k missile, that is what i said. I didnt tell that we can join UN if we test the missile, you did.

Just imagine the UNSC with NoKor as a permanent member! That's be hilarious.

Add Iran to that list

We should whether west likes it or not. 10k SLBM and 8k ICBM with MIRVs and then we can start to build missile for mars in case aliens treat arises.

You said: Oh we need to brag, we need to make everyone know that we have that capability or else what is the point of that missile?

What is the point of bragging and showing our capability? If it means nothing?

NYT: Signs of an Asian arms buildup in India missile test - World news - The New York Times - msnbc.com

This is one website, where the majority of comments are negative, so like plugwater said we should do it for us, and our interests alone, ignoring world(meaning western) reaction. Good or bad , their reactions are inconsequential. And India still has the elephant in the room called "caste" , that can be used at the drop of a hat. So, don't take others opinion so seriously.

You need to go and study some basics. Nuclear weapons and ICBMs are more important factors for avoiding a war not to start one.

Like anyone does not know that basic shit. Is that new news for you? Yes they do avoid war but are we going to war with NATO? Then what was the use of your own unconscious statement?

 

[Adux]

Guys, i am worried about only one question.. can somebody please answer my one question with proper source and reference..

1) how accurate is AGNI-5?

- thanks

With a 1.5 ton pay load, does it really matter lol ?

I expect it to be CEP 75-150m.

We are not, did i tell you that we are going to ?

You are making up things again and again and again.

You are making up things again and again and again.

No fool, answer the question, why did you say they need to know we are haveing a long range missile if we are not ever going to war with NATO?

Answer that.

Answer that.

To get a seat in UN

You were right and i was wrong.

 

[Adux]

GK , Plugwater, please do avoid blue on blue on small silly trivial matters.

 

[Godless-Kafir]

To get a seat in UN

You were right and i was wrong.

That answers the question doesn't it? What is the criteria to get UNSC seat anyway? Do you know? There are none all we can do is play cards like this to show we are a power to, if we are good natured beggars they will not allow us inside.

You make a 10,000 Kilometer weapon, USA wont care. It is only hyperbolic hyper sensitive Indians with a inferiority chip on the shoulder who has no idea of of how International politics has to be played on this matter, who talk about this dick measuring contest. Also, Like it or not. USA is a country which was ready to get destroyed itself with an adversary like the Soviet Union, India is nothing to them, currently.

India needs USA for a decade or two. We have much to catch up on.

USA wont jeapordize their important relationship with India, on an issue which they know India will have one day or the other. So why waste diplomatic leverage on it. Unlike silly people on this forum, thankfully diplomats aren't

India will not increase range much over their threat profile, atleast for a decade. Simply, There are other budgetery priorities after threat profile has been addressed. Such as better sub sonic cruise missile's, war head miniaturization, SLBM's etc

There are more technological milestones to achieve before we really break into 10,000+ range, which will take atleast 5 years of R&D


India is not going to make unnecessary ruffles and make life for itself harder, on the ground for its MEA, in the capitals of Europe and Northern America, We have much to get from them. We need to destroy the western centric world order from the inside.

irst of all India will not go for more than 5000km in near future . India can tk cr of china with 5000km .. we need to control pak and china. As far as USA is concerned ,she will definitely concerned if India go for 10,000km missile. Right now we need to use USA for our economic,and military build up ,no to offend USA

 

[sayareakd]

chini got our massage loud and clear, A5 can go 5k to 9k easily, with MRIV..........

Do you think USA dont have targetting solutions for India, right now. They do from the late 80's

USA wont care, because they have already accounted for us to be able to target them in the near future. They know, they cannot stop a country like India from attaining such a milestone, so why will they waste diplomatic capital on it, they already have a military counter measure for us and mind you, they are in a different league.

India has to get out of the blabbering idiot, Pakistani centric non aligned small country diatribe.

India has to be very very crafty, Look at how China played in the 70's and 80's and learn. And look at how China messed up post 2008, and learn from it.

When you have power there is no need to jump and brag.That bragging only suits some insecure small pathetic begger countries like..... you know who

We all know Agni-5 is beyond 5000+kms and that's it.
