Holy shit, Chinks and Pukis just had massive undie browning . Using the same Shauray/Sagarika/K-15 shell means this puppy can be deployed from Arihant. Using a nuke tipped Torpedo would render a CBG toast.

Hats off to DRDO. Damn, this shit made my day!

DRDO
I hope DRDO start releasing more info on their ongoing projects and produce short videos about their more advance labs like RCI, ASL and DRDL ...to inspire next generation.

People have no clue what all we have in our armoury. Just because India doesn't boast, some PPL take us lightly. PM wasn't bluffing when he said we have grandfather of all bombs.

Yes, they should have their own YT channel with proper PR guys.

But our political will doesn't match what we have !

Who said smart is based on shourya???then the name should be hypersonic missile assisted release of torpedo(hmart) not smart!!

Soon...... we'll nuke the world

While it's a great demo and I hope it's inducted. It's after some time, some new innovation has been done by Indian defence circles.

I would be interested to know on how the torpedo gets its final target. Cos P8I can carry its own Harpoons and they have 280km range. And carry anti sub charges etc. We would be requiring a network of sonar arrays, satellite tracking (and that means geo stationary satellites covering IOR all time) for the system to effectively work as anti sub system.
But it can work wonderfully as an anti ship system.

Not nuke, at least nobody can take our land.

India Has Tested A Very Long Range Supersonic Anti-Submarine Missile For The First Time

The missile releases a torpedo after reaching the target area, which can range out to 400 miles from the launch point.

Shaurya is hypersonic only in its terminal phase. Otherwise its supersonic across its flight profile.

Can we use this missile to destroy aircraft carriers?

Can we use this missile to destroy aircraft carriers?

Highly unlikely. It would get detected much earlier by surface ships and could take evasive action against the torpedo more efficiently.

It's cruising speed is hypersonic,means hypersonic at all stages..

Its a QBM, means it doesn't cruise. Just like a ballistic missile, its speed goes on increasing and attains the maximum hypersonic speed only during the terminal phase.
