They should have a test of any one of the Agnis and the trishul/prithvi ABMDs.
The ABMs series should be tasked to defend a particular target designated by the Agni.
The Agni has to defeat the ABMs and hit the target, while the ABMs will have to hit the RV before it detonates.
Test of both..

Shankar, your scenarious are very interesting as always and that everybody here accepts. Some have given minor nitpicks and it was good to see your way of clarifying them in the next episode of the scenario. One thing though that i have noticed in all your scenarious is sudden death.

Cypriot Airlines crashes. Initial reports says the pilots were unconcious due to loss in cabin pressure. Well this again will turn up into some maintenance error. But will have to wait a very long time for the official final report to come out.

No. I distinctly recall it was not Air-France but a S.American airline on a domestic flight. It was on discovery channel ~ 6 weeks ago. May be Arun that we are talking of two different scenarios.
