Agni-4 Missile Fills Crucial Range Gap, Bolsters Indias Strategic Deterrence Against China
India successfully conducted a user trial of its nuclear-capable Agni-4 medium-range ballistic missile from Chandipur, Odisha, with the Strategic Forces Command overseeing the launch.

Its range enables India to hold strategic targets deep inside China at risk, while also covering parts of Southeast, West and Central Asia. Agni-4 can carry nuclear or conventional payloads and is designed for rapid deployment from a mobile launcher. The missile incorporates advanced guidance, navigation and re-entry technologies. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh hailed the launch as a textbook mission, reaffirming Indias growing indigenous strategic missile capabilities.
