New Delhi: India has successfully test-fired its indigenously developed nuclear-capable ballistic missile, K-4, from the submarine INS Arighat. This significant achievement further solidifies India's position as a major global military power.
The K-4 missile, with a range of around 3,500 kilometers, is capable of carrying a nuclear warhead. The successful test demonstrates India's advanced missile technology and its ability to deliver a credible nuclear deterrent.
INS Arighat, a submarine of the Arihant class, was inducted into the Indian Navy in August this year. The successful test-firing of the K-4 missile from this submarine underscores India's growing submarine capabilities.
This achievement comes amidst rising geopolitical tensions in the region. India has been investing heavily in its defense capabilities, particularly in its nuclear arsenal and missile technology, to ensure its security and protect its interests.
