According to the report, the system can fire two missiles at the same time, marking a significant development in India’s indigenous missile technology. The Pralay missile has a reported range of up to 500 kilometres and is designed to strike multiple targets.
Pralay is classified as a quasi-ballistic missile because it can change its flight path during its journey, making its trajectory less predictable.
Before the test, authorities evacuated people living within a two-kilometre radius of the test area as a safety precaution.
The report also notes that Russia and the United States have previously developed systems with multiple-missile launch capabilities. India has developed this capability using indigenous technology.
The headline accompanying the report states that the missiles destroyed two targets located around 500 kilometres away and suggests deployment near the Pakistan border. However, the supplied details do not provide confirmation of the deployment plan.
