India successfully test-fired the Agni-4 Intermediate Range Ballistic Missile on Friday from the Integrated Test Range in Chandipur, off the coast of Odisha, according to defence sources.
The test met all operational and technical requirements, with the launch carried out under the supervision of the Strategic Forces Command.
The Agni-4 is a long-range, surface-to-surface ballistic missile with a range of 4,000 kilometres, capable of carrying nuclear warheads.
This latest launch marks another milestone in India’s strategic deterrence capabilities, following the successful test of the new-generation ballistic missile, Agni-Prime, in April.
