Missile test NOTAMs

[Jameson Emoni]

Sp Agni-2 done and Prithvi done . Now what was pending out of 4 was K-4 test and Brahmos test which was scheduled for Nov 11 . Either k4 test has been conducted and not declared to media for what ever reason or it will be done within the next 10 days .

Agni 2 and Prithvi got tested on the same date it was planned, no postponing in these 2 tests. It was just K-4 test which couldn't happen because of cyclone in BoB

What if there is a cyclone during the war, will K4 not be able to operate?

Pretty much any missiles that aren't coming from upper amosphere will be driven haywire by winds like that. However, during war theres no compulsion to use only one route. They'll take a different path.

Testing firing is one thing and firing in case of a dispute is another.

There is always a limit of sea weather condition on any SLBM launch, more or less. Wave, lightning, wind, all affect your missile, out of water posture which is critical to the trajectory and accuracy. When it is worse enough, you simply have to wait or move to the other launch sites.

It looks like K4 test will happen in about a week.

NEW DELHI: The test of India's most potent nuclear deterrence missile in the Bay of Bengal which will demonstrate a survivable second strike capability has now been scheduled to mid December, sources aware of latest developments have said.

The test of the K4 submarine launched nuclear capable missile was scheduled to take place from the eastern coast as ET had reported but the window is likely to be used for an Agni series missile firing.

[fire starter]

It was fired from ins Arihant................

no it was from pantloon as it is still under developmental trials.

 

[captscooby81]

Yup now its confirmed that it was fired from Pontoon not from Arihant Submarine

 

[fire starter]

waiting for manu pubbby and first post to claim it as unsuccessful.

Southern China when we throw full payload of 2500 ton++ and if we send smaller payload it travels much further.

 

[Babloo Singh]

no it was from pantloon as it is still under developmental trials.

Point is was it K-4 or suppressed range K 5..... when we have subs going on deterrent petrol already, probability that K-4 is still not ready for test from Sub is quiet low.
So if it's tested from pontoon than it's most likely K5.

Or there is no rush. Entire china is anyway under the range of Indian nukes and china has no effective BMD .

 

[Defcon 1]

Have any our slbms been test fired from arihant publicly?

 

[lcafanboy]

Launch of an experimental flight vehicle

Danger Zone A 1700kms, B 3500kms

Multiple means MIRV ?? Then its K5..
