To me what this says is that Arihant is ready with K-4 missiles in place and Aridaman is about to set off on sea trials. A-5 canister launch should also be imminent with induction to follow.

Isn't it counter productive to follow the bastion strategy? If Arihant stays in BoB only the the enemy knows where to expect the attack from. I would prefer deployment into Arabian sea and South Indian Ocean.

I don't know if its possible to do a fully endo-atmospheric flight to3-4K km. K-15 may be able to do 700 km at 50 Km altitude but I doubt it can do 1800 km or so that is claimed to be max range.

Re: INS Arihant (ATV) News and Discussion -3

It would be difficult to hide a high loft test as the altitude will be in 800-1000 km range? Surprisingly none of the K-4 test mention the altitude reached. Unlike A-3/4 and 5 where DRDO press release mention the altitude. I doubt the K-4/5 can do a horizontal flight at 40-50 km with rolling like K-...
