BDL test fires missile advanced wireless anti-tank missile

 

Bharat Dynamics Limited (BDL) has indigenously developed and test fired an advanced Wireless Anti-Tank Missile with RF Guidance at Babina ranges. RF System with EW protection was used to send the guidance command to the missile. The system has the capability of being remotely launched and piloted from a safe distance equalling the advantages of expensive third generation ATGMs. This is the 2nd Missile developed by BDL indigenously which was test fired recently.

BDL, had earlier, in Jan 2016, successfully test fired its first indigenously developed ATGM named, Amogha -1 which has a range of 2.8km.

With the successful completion of the developmental trials of these two new systems, BDL has entered into the era of development of new generation short range missile systems both for moving and stationary land targets, BDL informed.
