Overview

  • The missile is described as carrying advanced avionics and navigation with low-altitude flight to evade air defenses and hit targets with high precision.
  • The system has been assigned to the Army Rocket Force Command to expand reach, lethality and survivability of conventional missiles.
  • Senior military leaders, scientists and engineers observed the launch, and the president, prime minister and service chiefs issued congratulations.
  • Some outlets published additional specifications and comparisons to India’s BrahMos and S-400 defenses that were not included in the ISPR statement and remain unverified.
