Here goes:
H-6 bomber:
Performance
Maximum speed: 1,050 km/h (567 knots, 656 mph)
Cruise speed: Mach 0.75 (768 km/h, 477 mph)
Range: 6,000 km (3,200 nm, 3,700 mi)
Combat radius: 1,800 km (970 nm, 1,100 mi)
If India does a ICBM test with MIRV within to reach 3 megaton capability would need say 5 devices at 0.6 megaton capability (that we know India already has - shakti) .
How much did the PRC megaton 3.3 thermonuclear bomb weigh (I take it at your face value not doubting statistics that usually one does with PRC nowadays). How was it carried. Does it make sense to do that today.
(Please try understand megaton capability can be demonstrated by other means)

MIRVs Edit
In future, Agni-V is expected to feature Multiple independently targetable reentry vehicle (MIRVs) with each missile being capable of carrying 2–10 separate nuclear warheads.[38] Each warhead can be assigned to a different target, separated by hundreds of kilometres; alternatively, two or more warheads can be assigned to one target.[37] MIRVs ensure a credible second strike capability even with few missiles.
Now if India does a MIRV test shows a YouTube of such with a picture of mars and some operator. what's does that do.
Some will also whisper to my ear is it efficient to do a 3 megaton test atmospheric and screw with environment. I am sure you were one of the protestors in PRC about nuke plants and refusing to have them build near your home. But I won't talk about that too much.
I really feel our nuke tests shortly will be done (it will be justified for many positive reasons for our nation) and precisely for this. MIRV capability and test the device delivery and system performance of multiple MIRV at different variables and yields across the board that go beyond megaton capability. About 10 devices please. Jai Hind.
One ICBM test with 10,000 km range with Dummy MIRV. I will take that. Yep it will cover the "requirement". Some one told me once PRC media had already declared India to have ICBM ability by highlighting the weight and range ratios. Warhead weight of Agni 5 .
do you mind compare that to H-6 bomber. Only for reference obviously no one with military forum knowledge would do such a thing. Would they. (H-6 bomber has about 10,000 kg of free fall missile use). That equates to about 9 agni-v missiles right.
Someone will whisper but 9 agni-5 missiles with MIRV !! I don't know what to say. Only 5 MIRV will fit ... Again I don't know. Accuracy of MIRV. Speed and performance of MIRV. Make it faster ... More stealthy. What am I talking. I don't know. Is there a YouTube video I can show. I will try and get it for you.
Everyone is also aware a large yield bomb causes less destruction relative to multiple bombs that in total yield the same. MIRV tech of high yield is far more diffictul to achieve compared to simply increasing the yield. I won't want to compare such with a 660 miles per hour delivery device for megaton weapon delivery and range of 1,800 km combat radius (you would think that the pilots want to return - unless you are saying its kamikaze)
India far far far ahead of 1970s PRC. Please take that first ... Later we will talk how India can overtake even PRC of today. But again I won't be shy India needs to work at it no easy short cuts.
Please also do share the MIRV capability of PRC of today. When it matured and if that guided bomb in your video fits ... Onto a missile. (It will allow you to save some face within One China regions of where you refused to accept the bets with me - no point accepting now damage done).
But fair point PRC has a space station. That's pretty good. UK and France are part of international Space station. I think India will be moving up in gears on space also shortly. Recent launch are only beginning.
Someone whispered that the recent test of ISRO reentry vehicle was like a MIRV test. What !! Oh wait ...
But we are reaching levels of P5 today. The talk is only on PRC status of 1970s because that is how UNSC membership was last amended and set. And like in India we say ... Say out loud ... India today is far far far ahead of PRC of 1970s ...
Say out loud ... Jai Mata Di !! Say out loud Chinese and India will do "good business" together.
