Balasore: The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) tested a long-range Supersonic Missile Assisted Torpedo (SMART) from Wheeler Island in Odisha coast on Monday.
The full range capability of the next-generation missile-based standoff torpedo delivery system was successfully demonstrated during the test. The missile carried a torpedo, parachute delivery system and release mechanisms, official sources said.
“The system has been designed to enhance anti-submarine warfare capability far beyond the conventional range of the torpedo,” the DRDO was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.
