DRDO successfully testfires Quick Reaction Surface-to-Air Missile defence system

India on Sunday successfully test-fired a 3,500-kilometre range nuclear-capable missile that can be launched from a submarine. The missile is being developed by India’s Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and is to be fitted into the indigenously built Arihant-class nuclear-powered submarines of the Indian Navy.
