India might have tested a missile named K-4 that could carry nuclear payload. According to some recent reports, this test was conducted last month near the port of Visakhapatnam.
- The K-4 missile is known to carry a payload upto 2000 kgs and can hit a target which is as far as 3,500 km with almost 0% deviation from the target.
- The missile can be fired from a submarine and can prove surprising to the enemy until its fired.
- K-4 is named after the initials of Kalam and is indigenously developed by the DRDO.
- It would be a part of INS Arihant Submarine which is also home built.
- The mission and its trial was kept in secret due to the international pressures.
With the growing threat from the China and Pakistan, INS Arihant loaded with K-4 can certainly let our enemies be more cautious.
