India's Akash surface-to-air missile Akash was fired Oct. 4 from the testing range at Chandipur, in the eastern Indian state of Orissa, a spokesman for Indian Ministry of Defence said.
The indigenously developed missile, which has a range of 25 kilometers, was fired from a mobile launcher. The last test-firing took place Sept. 14, 2001. The Akash is scheduled for commissioning in the Indian Defence Forces by the end of 2003, the spokesman said Oct. 4.
India's state-owned Bharat Dynamics Ltd., Bangalore, is under contract to produce roughly 25 Akash missiles at a cost of about $500,000 per missile. India's Defence Research and Development Organisation also has begun work on new Akash variant, which will be quipped with indigenously produced Rajendra radar system and have an extended range of 65 kilometers.
