India on Friday test-fired a nuclear-capable cruise missile from Balasore in Odisha state, the Times of India (ToI) reported.
The missile, with the name of Nirbhay, has a range of over 700 kilometres, the ToI said, adding that today's test-fire was the second developmental trial of the missile.
The missile's first test was carried out on March 12 last year from the same base but "the flight had to be terminated mid-way, as deviations were observed from its intended course," the ToI quoted an official as saying.
The official added that Nirbhay has good loitering capability, effective control and guidance, high degree of accuracy as well as effective stealth features.

The long range capability Nirbhay is being developed by India’s Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO).
The test comes as India and Pakistan are engaged in skirmishes along the Line of Control (LoC) and the working boundary and also as India has conveyed to China that it could no longer be issued warnings by anyone saying the South Asian nation was now immensely powerful and held a prominent position on the international stage.

-- not at all. it was a preplanned test way before any of these recent skirmish. This missile has range more than 1000 km, with alot of space for further improvement.

China got Tom hawk missile from pak which fell off during laden bombing. Later China gave Pakistan mock down version of babar after reverse engineer in 2005.
China imported 10 Long ranger Kh-65SE cruise missiles from Ukrain and russia. They reverse engineered a 4000 KM copy cat version!
India built on its own without any external help. We hope that Nirbhay 2 range can be improved with advanced version of Turbo engine!

Congratulations. Though India testing such missiles have nothing to do with border skirmishes with Pakistan. The development was at a stage where such tests were needed.
At present the global defense scenario is like this that none of top 10 powers have sufficient advantage to defeat any other power amongst them. China, India and Pakistan are all three in that list. So media shouldn't connect this test with anything happening on border. Border skirmishes happen every year before winter sets in.

Nirbhay or 'fearless' as the name suggests represent the current mood in India. A super confident India marches forward with new milestones every day even as some of its estranged neighbors try to pull its leg. Modi has clearly said, neither shall we dominate any one nor should we allow others to dominate us - we must treat everyone as equal and focus on our national development. That is precisely what the youth in India want.

Breaching these dams will cause untold damage and flash flooding which will affect the cities of Islamabad and Rawalpindi.
The breaching to the Mangala and Tarbela Dams by Indian Nirbhay missiles will be the first and opening salvo during the war with Pakistan.
These will be like the e4 and Nf3 moves in chess.
Within 3 hours there will be colossal loss of life and property in riparian Punjab if these dams are breached in quick succession.

The Nirbhay is a sub-sonic cruise missile and gives India the capacity to launch different kinds of payloads at different ranges from various platforms at a very low cost. The missile has a fire-and-forget system that cannot be jammed.
India has had the capability to make ballistic missiles for some time now and has made tactical missiles of different capacity. But it had not mastered a cruise missile yet.
The US had used cruise missiles very effectively during the Gulf War.
The Nirbhay is India's answer to America's Tomahawk and Pakistan's Babur.

Babur is based on the BGM-109 Tomahawk cruise missile, after six Tomahawks crash-landed on Pakistani territory in 2001 during US airstrikes on targets in Afghanistan,[6] and its design seems to show this influence. The propulsion system appears to approximate that of BGM-109 Tomahawk according to videos of its launch.

For those so worried about how money should be spent on social purpose, India spends around $100 million on Hajj subsidy ( more than the Mars mission which you had also similarly criticized). Shod that also be stopped?
By the way, having indigenous weapons, saves India foreign exchange which can be used to import food and reduce inflation. India would have loved to spend less on defense but learnt its lesson in 1962 and in wars with Pakistan. So given that certain weapons are needed anyway in the country's arsenal, better that they be made in India.

We are biggest trading partner of the US.By no stretch of imagination, Indian economy is a solely agrarian economy.If you have doubt, kindly refer to last year's economic survey or Union budget, easily available by searching in google.

One thing to say... Maintaining nuclear missiles are too expensive and with the bad economy its too difficult to maintain it for pakistan... Those missiles that pak has the oldest ones which was rejected by the countries which was given to pakistan and they have adopted technically higher variants. Better take care of it as it may get blast in your country itself...
One doubt,,, Countries like US, Russia, China, India has failed in most of the cases in their first attempt. How can pakistan did it on first attempt. First built better "railway engines" of your own instead of begging with china and india....

@Ahmed USA
The million dollars spent were hard earned by govt and people of india. The million dollars spent were not taken as a loan from IMF or world bank.

@Raj Singh it's funny that you can use internet but don't know that India on it's own didn't make cruise missile. Russia and USA is been selling India obsolete arms. Where as China and Pakistan relays on reverse technology.

@Shah Because there is no fun in testing Chinese imported missiles every other day given that they are already limited in numbers and they cost millions... Which is why your tests never fail...

@Usman Do you know how to read? It wasn't a failure. It was successful, BTW Kh-55 range is 2500km with totally different navigation system based on doppler radar and terrain maps. Where as Nirbhay is around 1000km range with laser gyroscope as navigation and loitering capability which the russian missile does not have. Just because you use Chinese missiles and do a paint job does not mean everyone does the same.

@Zain: Truth is: If India is invaded AGAIN, the miilions of its poor will be even worse off -- maybe Jizya could return? India's
missiles are meant to stop the invasions (please count) for good and for the good of the poor, too!
