India to Test Nuclear Capable Missile Soon

DefenceTalk,

According to defence experts in India and recent reports in the news media suggest that India is getting ready to test nuclear capable missile with range of more than 3000+km, however the test could take place probably by years end but exact timing is unclear.

The reports did not mention which missile India is going to test. Our speculations are that it could be test of India's AGNI-3 or AGNI-4 missiles. According to Federation of American Scientists (FAS), India is also trying to develope Intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) called Surya with approximate range of 12,000 KM.

The speculated up coming test could be considered a reply to Pakistan's recent test of its Nuclear capable Cruise missile Babur.
