India’s Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) successfully carried out two consecutive flight trials of the Pralay quasi‑ballistic tactical missile from Dr APJ Abdul Kalam Island off the Odisha coast on July 28–29, 2025 . Designed for 150–500 km range strikes, Pralay demonstrated high precision, adherence to trajectory, and accurate target impact during user evaluation trials validating its guidance, mission algorithms, and range capabilities . Weighing approximately 5 tonnes, it can avoid enemy detection with its radar‑evading, manoeuvring MaRV, and be rapidly deployed via truck-mounted launchers. Authorities confirmed the success paves the way for its induction into India’s armed forces.
