expected to join the army soon
The Agni Prime missile is powered by a two-stage propulsion system and is based on solid fuel. Its guidance system is equipped with electromechanical actuators. Agni Prime can not only target enemy warships at a distance of 2000 km, but the warhead capable of carrying nuclear weapons makes it more dangerous.
