“During the three field trials, the missile systems destroyed precisely all the targets”.

The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) on Monday (January 13, 2024) announced that the indigenously-developed third-generation fire-and-forget Anti-Tank Guided Missile (ATGM) ‘Nag Mk 2’ and the entire system was ready for induction into the Army following successful field firing trials.

Field evaluation trials of Nag-Mk 2 were successfully conducted recently at Pokhran Field Range in the presence of senior officers of the Army, a statement from the DRDO said. “During the three field trials, the missile systems destroyed precisely all the targets – maximum and minimum range, thus validating its firing range.”

Stating that the Nag Missile Carrier version-2 was also field evaluated, the DRDO announced, “With this, the entire weapon system is now ready for induction into the Indian Army.”

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh took to social media to congratulate the Army and the industry on the successful field evaluation trials.
