Flight test of anti-tank guided missile Nag successful

New Delhi: India’s indigenously-developed 3rd generation Anti Tank Guided Missile (ATGM), Nag, has been successfully flight tested twice by DRDO on Friday against two different targets in the ranges of Rajasthan.

The ATGM Nag missile successfully hit both the targets under different ranges and conditions with very high accuracy as desired by the Armed Forces, DRDO sources said.

With these two successful flight trials, and the flight test conducted earlier in June in the peak of summer, the complete functionality of Nag ATGM along with launcher system NAMICA has been established and marked the successful completion of development trials of Nag missile, the sources added.

India is also looking at buying Israeli Spike ATGM to equip its infantry and mechanised infantry units the capability to destroy armoured vehicles and bunkers from a distance of 2.5 km. The deal is worth Rs 3,200 crore.
