DRDO successfully test-fires Advanced Air Defence missile

Firstpost  

India on Wednesday successfully test-fired its indigenously developed supersonic interceptor missile capable of destroying any incoming enemy ballistic missile at low altitude. The interceptor was engaged against a target which was a Prithvi missile launched from launch complex 3 of the Integrated Test Range at Chandipur near Balasore, taking up the trajectory of a hostile ballistic missile. After about four minutes the interceptor, Advanced Air Defence missile positioned at Abdul Kalam Island in the Bay of Bengal, getting signals from tracking radars, roared through its trajectory to destroy the incoming hostile missile in mid-air, in an endo-atmospheric altitude, the official said. On 11 February, an incoming hostile ballistic missile target was successfully intercepted at high altitude, above 50 km of the earth’s atmosphere by an exo-atmospheric interceptor missile off the Odisha coast.
