The Missile system is now ready for induction into the Indian Army which has actually been trying to find such a rocket system to take down the enemy tanks and other armored cars.
The Nag Missile System fired from a Nag Missile Provider (NAMICA) can take our targets at varieties of 4 to 7 kilometers and is fitted with an advanced candidate to house on to its target. The NAG rocket is a third-generation anti-tank guided rocket, which has leading attack capabilities that can efficiently engage and ruin all known opponent tanks throughout day and night.
The Army requires third-generation ATGMs with a strike range of over 2.5 km with fire and forget abilities. It requires them to equip its mechanized infantry units to bring them on their Russian BMP cars.
The army is presently using second-generation Milan 2T and Konkur ATGMs and has been looking for about third-generation rockets, which are very important for stopping advancing opponent tanks. The Defence Ministry in 2018 had actually cleared the acquisition of 300 Nag rockets and 25 NAMICAs for the Indian Army.
PM Narendra Modi, who has provided a call for making India ‘Aatmanirbhar,’ and his cabinet coworker and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, have lauded DRDO’s efforts towards strengthening India’s defense abilities.
Developed indigenously by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), the Nag ATGM can be released from both- land in addition to air-based platforms.
With a series of 4-7 km, the rocket is fitted with home-developed infrared applicants and avionics, the abilities possessed by just a few countries on the planet.
