Pakistan’s Kirana Hills will be destroyed in minutes, India’s new missile will be dangerous than America’s bunker buster, it’s name is…

Agni V missile of India: In a significant development after the United States of America reportedly used its B2 bombers to allegedly destroy nuclear sites of Iran, India is reportedly developing an advanced missile system capable of destroying heavily fortified underground targets like Pakistan’s Kirana Hills with a single strike. The Agni-V missile is reportedly equipped with a heavy warhead (mainly non-nuclear) of 7.5 tonnes. The Agni V missile, often called India’s premier missile will have a range between 2000-2500 KM and can be used as ‘bunker bombs’. Here are all the details you need to know about the Agni-5 missile

PM Modi and President Murmu on flight test of Agni V

President Murmu and PM Modi congratulated DRDO last year when the Agni V missile was launched by DRDO. In her message on ‘X’, the supreme commander of the armed forces said, “The state-of-the-art technology developed indigenously is a firm step in the direction of India becoming Atmanirbhar.”

“The flight test of Agni V under Mission Divyastra marks a very important milestone in India’s march towards greater geo-strategic role and capabilities…I convey my heartiest congratulations to the Team DRDO for this major achievement. I am sure they will keep moving apace in their quest for excellence and self-reliance,” she said.

PM Modi congratulated Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) scientists over the first flight test of indigenously developed Agni-5 missile, capable of deploying multiple warheads.

Notably, the Multiple Independently Targetable Re-entry Vehicle (MIRV) variant of Agni-V was successfully tested in Mission Divyastra (March 2024), thus proving India’s technological capability.
