so will this be dhavani? or another agni 5 with MIRV or MaRV?
Unless someone in the government comes out and reveals this (which is unlikely but not impossible, given, it was done for MIRV test) — no one will know!

.Looks like they just trolled Yuan-5.

I was reading on X that apparently both US and Chinese observation ships were in the region and that’s why the test got cancelled. Imagine if the next notam is of 5500 KMs![]()

Imagine if they do it without issuing NOTAM. And it's captured by merchant ships while yuan-5 is in service at some singapore port

Some poor passenger plane or merchant ship can get royally f#%@€$ in the process
This is not how we do test of ballistic missiles. China did one time by issuing a 10 min notice of some slbm (which was caught by a jet passenger that was way nearby & extremely dangerous). There are international regulation for such tests, notams must be issued a week or more prior.Imagine if they do it without issuing NOTAM.

emoji will reflect the sentiment 
What the actual f#%#! I had no idea about this. You have to be a special category of nutsack to pull something like this off! Holy ….This is not how we do test of ballistic missiles.

There is a small dot like area at the top of the long notam, that is some IAF firing notam area very small near the coast, from 13th to 17th. This one might be for LCA firing. That notam only says IAF firing and we got HAL to deliver Mk1a on 17th October. So maybe more jet completing firing trial ?
We can see its very small zone for IAF firing. Perhaps aam firing or gun firing on banshee drones, small area to track.


It's not just the presence. It's also the proximity. While big vessels make headlines, the real challenge may not be in the news. Plus, chinese are mastering advanced tech and our defense ecosystem wasn't on edge either.What's with this silly assumption among Indian defence enthusiast that we are somehow postponing our tests because of Chinese research vassals? Like when they were not there in IOR when we tested our missiles. I remember one being Parked in Sri Lanka yet we tested our missile a few years back. I'm not completely rejecting that their presence could impact our tests just that it's not the sole factor. There could be many reasons unknown to us whether technical or circumstantial we don't know..
