That's an extremely short range missile.New TOR missile system M2DT carries 16 missiles.
We need to reduce weight and should convert akash missiles system to TOR.

There's no comparison between Akash & Tor!
Agreed that Akash Mk1 is bulky & comes with only 3 per carrier, but Akash Mk2 will probably come in packs of 6 (if not eight)
QRSAM is 25km, Akash is 30km range. This is just conservative figureFor range is 15km and akash is 25
We can reduce weight and create our own tor system

Akash role is not meant to be mobile but static defense of ground facilities and bases. The missiles are mounted on a vehicle platform yes so that it can be re-positioned easily but the fact that the missiles are not canisterised makes them impractical to use in a mobile context. QR-SAM is being developed to cover the Akash role in mechanized formations in conjunction with the K-30 BihoSeems like an Army Akash Regiment on move. 10 month old video.
Not certain about one Airforce type trailer. It should be the Radar but the Army version should have been more mobile types.
I know Akash ain't mobile i.e. fire on move like Pantsir. But army versions are usually on move unlike usually static IAF versions. So they do have high mobility vehicles unlike IAF trailers..Akash role is not meant to be mobile but static defense of ground facilities and bases.
