The indigenously developed missile was launched from a Light Combat Helicopter at a high altitude. During the test, the missile successfully hit the target of a simulated tank. This missile is one of the most advanced anti-tank weapons in the world. This missile is guided by an Infrared Imaging Seeker (IIR).
The flight test of the missile was conducted jointly by teams of scientists from the Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO) Indian Army and Indian Air Force. Trials in high-altitude areas have paved the way for the missile to be mounted on a Light Combat Helicopter.
Defense Minister Rajnath Singh congratulated DRDO and the Indian Army on the trial.
