The beyond visual range Astra missile was tested at the Chandipur test range, about 230 km from the state capital Bhubaneswar, at about 9.45 am.
“It was a very good flight,” ITR Director S.P. Dash told Inditop. Another Astra missile was scheduled to be tested from the same test range later in the day, he added. Astra is a high-end tactical missile and is envisaged to intercept enemy aircraft at supersonic speeds in head-on mode at a range of 80 km and in tail-chase mode at 20 km. Via
