The New Generation Akash (Akash-NG) missile, being developed by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), was on Friday successfully flight tested from the integrated test range (ITR), Chandipur, off the Odisha coast.
"The flight test was conducted against a high-speed, unmanned aerial target at a very low altitude. During the flight test, the target was successfully intercepted by the weapon system and destroyed. (The test) has validated the functioning of the complete weapon system consisting of the missile with indigenously developed radio frequency seeker, launcher, multi-function radar and command, control and communication systems," said the DRDO after the test.
"The system's performance was also validated through the data captured by a number of radars, telemetry and electro-optical tracking systems deployed by ITR, Chandipur," it said.
