In Boost To Army's Fire Power, Medium Range Missile
System In 3 Years
After years of wait, the Indian Army will finally get an
advanced medium-range surface to air missile (MRSAM) system by 2020 which will
be able to shoot down ballistic missiles, fighter jets and attack helicopters
from a range of around 70 km.
The missile system will be produced by premier
defence research organisation DRDO in collaboration with the Israel Aerospace
Industries (IAI), a senior army official said.
The MRSAM system will be capable of shooting
down enemy ballistic missiles, aircraft, helicopters, drones, surveillance
aircraft and AWACS (Airborne Warning and Control Systems) aircraft, the
official said on condition of anonymity as he is not authorised to speak to the
media.
The current version of MRSAM is
operational with the Indian Air Force and the Navy.
