According to sources, the short-range and state-of-the-art ballistic missile was test-fired from Launching Complex III of the Integrated Test Range (ITR) in Balasore district around 7.30pm by the Strategic Forces Command. However, the night test-fire was successful in meeting all the parameters, the DRDO sources added.

In less than a month’s time, the Indian Army had successfully conducted previous night trial September 23, this year.

Notably, Prithvi-II has a strike range of 350 kilometre. The missile trajectory was tracked by radars, electro-optical tracking systems and telemetry stations by the research and development organisation.

The downrange teams on board a ship deployed near the designated impact point in the Bay of Bengal monitored the terminal events and splashdown. Prithvi-II is capable of carrying 500 to 1,000 kg of warheads and is powered by liquid propulsion twin engines.
