Overview
- The LRGR-120 executed all planned in-flight manoeuvres and hit its target with "textbook precision."
- Range radars, electro‑optical sensors and telemetry tracked the rocket throughout its trajectory, validating performance.
- The rocket was launched from an in-service Pinaka system, demonstrating compatibility across variants without new launchers.
- ARDE led the indigenous design with HEMRL, supported by DRDL and RCI, as ITR and P&EE coordinated a trial witnessed by DRDO chief Samir V. Kamat.
- The test coincided with DAC approval of ₹79,000 crore proposals that include long-range Pinaka ammunition, with Rajnath Singh calling the capability a game changer.
