Then which mizzile?
Very few countries test it that way, US tested but still "prepared" scenarios...most of it is simulated and just good enough as the ballistics side of the science is pretty concrete, therefore countries like Russia are going quasi-ballistic or hypersonic or maneuverable one like avantguard....part of it is real full test will create ripples and invite unwanted attention too

Indian Army and "Atmanirbhar" ? Its the most corrupt branch among the 3 services.
Thats an insult, IA is the one that is close to the conflicts and all this sabotage talk is not in touch with reality. GOI especially Modi and Shah are not so stupid to let the import lobbies run amok like that.....we can expect to see tanks, arty going totally domestic in this decade. Small arms is still a concern but those two comprise biggest army purchases?
