Successful Field Evaluation Trials of indigenously-developed third-generation Anti-Tank Fire-and-Forget Guided Missile ‘Nag Mk 2’

Posted On: 13 JAN 2025 7:20PM by PIB Delhi

Field Evaluation Trials of indigenously-developed Nag Mk 2, the third-generation Anti-Tank Fire-and-Forget Guided Missile, were successfully conducted recently at Pokhran Field Range in the presence of senior officers of the Indian Army. During the three field trials, the missile systems destroyed precisely all the targets - maximum and minimum range, thus validating its firing range.

The Nag Missile Carrier version-2 was also field evaluated. With this, the entire weapon system is now ready for induction into the Indian Army.

This is the n-th time they are calling Nag "ready for induction".

A large static testing rig being built , actually one such old existing rig is being increased in length for some purpose, to be more precise. It is likely similar to the test setup we have seen before, structurally (maybe) like in the Tejas drop tank. Except that it is big.

12m in length would be much longer than even BrahMos-A🤔
