The insightful articles, inspiring narrations and analytical perspectives presented by the Editorial Team, establish an alluring connect with the reader. My compliments and best wishes to SP Guide Publications.
"Over the past 60 years, the growth of SP Guide Publications has mirrored the rising stature of Indian Navy. Its well-researched and informative magazines on Defence and Aerospace sector have served to shape an educated opinion of our military personnel, policy makers and the public alike. I wish SP's Publication team continued success, fair winds and following seas in all future endeavour!"
Since, its inception in 1964, SP Guide Publications has consistently demonstrated commitment to high-quality journalism in the aerospace and defence sectors, earning a well-deserved reputation as Asia's largest media house in this domain. I wish SP Guide Publications continued success in its pursuit of excellence.
The Defence Research Development Organisation (DRDO) conducted a successful test launch of the interceptor missile. DRDO’s air defence missile AAD-05 successfully hit the ballistic missile and destroyed it at a height of 15 kms off the coast of Orissa near the Wheelers Island.
A modified Prithvi missile mimicking the ballistic missile was launched from ITR Chandipur. Radars located at different locations tracked the incoming ballistic missile.
The onboard radio frequency seeker identified the target missile, guided the AAD-05 interceptor missile close to the target missile, hit the target missile directly and destroyed it. Warhead also exploded and destroyed the target missile into pieces. India is the fifth nation to have these ballistic missile defence capabilities in the world.
