AGNI

#ashokasays Did you know 44:
The famous missile series AGNI's first missile AGNI I failed in the first two tests and the Indians were made fun off by other countries like USA, UK, Pakistan, etc.
Today AGNI series of missiles is one of the most advanced missiles in the world.

1. Agni-V is India's most potent missile yet and can cover a range of over 5000 kilometers in any direction. It is also a nuclear-capable missile, which means that it can carry a nuclear warhead and cover a long stretch equipped with that nuclear devise. Geographically, the missile's cover space ranges from all of China in the East to all of Europe in the West.

2. The missile is able to travel faster than a bullet and can carry with it at least a 1000 kilogram of nuclear weapon. However, the missile can only be launched on the direct orders of the Prime Minister of India and no one else. India has now joined an elite club with only Russia, China, US and France currently possessing the capability to operate an intercontinental ballistic missile.

3. AGNI -VI which is under development will be capable of being launched from submarines as well as from land and will have a strike range of 8000-10000 km with a pay load of 1000kgs
