USED IN NAVAL POINT and area defence, Barak-8 is all weather missile system which can engage sea-skimming to high altitude targets using its several advanced state-of-the-art systems (such) as, digital radar, command and control, launchers, interceptors with modern RF seekers, Data link and system-wide connectivity.
Barak means 'Lightning' in Hebrew. This Hebrew word has been chosen by the Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) to develop surface-to-air missile systems. Under an inter-governmental agreement between India and Israel, a joint venture has been established for the development of surface to air missile systems between Indian Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and IAI. Barak-8, also known as the long-range surface-to-air missile (LRSAM), has been designed to defend against any type of airborne threat including aircraft, helicopters, anti-ship missiles and UAV as well as cruise missiles and combat jets. While DRDO labs produce the propulsion rocket system, thrust vector system and certain other components, Israel builds the heart of the LRSAM-the seeker, endgame avionics and electronics, technologies that have independently matured in India. With a 70-km range, the LRSAM is fielded by arming the Project 17(A) frigates and the Vikramaditya aircraft carrier.

The Re-Birth of Vikrant A Triumph of Indigenisation
Apart from being a catalyst in creating industrial and technological capability in India, the figure of 76 per cent indigenisation achieved during the ship's construction implies that more than two-thirds of the cost of the ship's construction has been invested back in India's economy and its people. Such investments also support the development of industries and the eco-system required for indigenisation.
