#DefenceResearchAndDevelopmentOrganisation successfully supervised the #MaidenFlight trial of the indigenously developed Naval Anti-ship missile launched from Seaking 42B #NavalHelicopter from #ITRBalasore in #Odisha on May 18 at 8:50 am. This firing is a crucial step towards accomplishing self-reliance in niche missile technology and reaffirms the #IndianNavy's obligation to indigenization. The mission has fulfilled all its goals. It is the first indigenous air-launched #AntishipMissileSystem for the Indian Navy. The missile pursued the desired sea-skimming trajectory and achieved the designated mark with a high degree of precision, substantiating the supervision, suggestion, and mission algorithms.
