Mission
Divyastra: India successfully tested Agni-5 ballistic missile incorporating
MIRV technology
India
achieved great success by successfully testing Agni-5 ballistic missile
incorporating Multi-Mission
Reentry Vehicles (MIRV) on 11 March 2024. This success has made India a
unique group of countries among the permanent members of the United Nations
Security Council that have missiles that operate using multiple rocket systems.
Mission
Divyastra: A Flight Test Victory
A flight
test called Mission Divyastra by the Defense Research and Development
Organization (DRDO) was conducted at APJ Abdul Kalam Island in Odisha. A
network of telemetry and radar stations carefully tracks and monitors the
Agni-5 missile's multiple re-entry vehicles throughout the mission and declared
the mission a success as it met all conditions. Multi-warhead missile
technology emerged during the Cold War, allowing a single missile to deliver
multiple nuclear warheads to multiple targets. Each head is mounted on a
reentry vehicle and can be programmed to fire at a specific location. Rockets
with multiple warheads can reach targets with a range of up to 1,500 kilometers
by firing warheads at different ranges and ranges.
Part of
success of Multi-Warhead Missile in India
Completion
of Multi-Warhead Missile Carrier Technology for Agni-5 Missile System has a
major impact on India's capabilities in two parts:
Advanced
Deterrence :
Multi-warhead missiles pose a major challenge to enemy missile defense systems. Deployment of multiple warheads and decoys can disrupt the ballistic missile defense system (BMD) and effectively engage the target. This capability improves India's defense system, especially against China, which has the ability to defend against powerful missiles.
Multiple
Capacities:
Although the
number of nuclear warheads that the Agni 5 multi-warhead missile can
accommodate has not yet been made public, reports indicate that the missile can
focus on at least three separate areas along the perimeter. large area.
Flexibility in payload capacity allows the deployment of additional warheads
and decoys when necessary.
Range of
Agni 5: medium-range ballistic missile or intercontinental ballistic missile?
Currently
classified as an intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) with a range of
5,000 square meters, the actual capabilities of Agni-5 may exceed this
classification, capable of launching intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM)
with a range of more than 5,500 square meters. kilometer. Chinese officials
always considered it an intercontinental ballistic missile and said it had a
range of about 8,000 miles.
Recent
developments indicate that India is working to improve the capabilities of the
Burj Khalifa 5 missile, including weight reduction measures such as replacing
hydraulic actuators with fire-activated actuators.Electric lighter - the first
level of electrical equipment. As Agni-5 becomes lighter, its range will
increase.
Road to
the Future:
Multiple
Warhead Missiles and Submarine-Launched Ballistic Missiles
The
successful integration of multiple ballistic missiles into the Agni-5 missile
system has paved the way for a new development for India's strategic weapons
arsenal. Submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLBMs).
Women
Leading the Project:
More importantly, the project was entrusted to Shankari Chandrasekaran, a woman scientist at DRDO, and supported by other women scientists. As Project Manager of Agni-5, Sheena Rani spearheaded its development, particularly by equipping it with MIRV technology at the DRDO Advanced Systems Laboratory.
