Only the first 20 seconds is of a propelled weapon. All subsequent explosions seem to be of ballistic projectiles.

Any idea what the first weapon is?
Looks like anti-tank missile

Re: Indian Naval Aviation

IAF C-17 carried fully loaded diesel tankers to Imphal due to blockage of roads (Bad weather). Is this even a safe practice to carry literally a live bomb in such an expensive aircraft?

What was the purpose of Dhanush (Naval Version) of Prithvi? Surely it was a never intended to be an operational platform but more of an experimental platform. Question is what we got by multiple Dhanush test even fairly recently?
