According to Deccan Herald , DRDO and Indian Navy have successfully conducted a ground-based launch of a Vertical Launch System Short Range Surface-to-Air Missile (VL-SRSAM), marking a major milestone for the Indian defence industry.

The missile was aimed at a high-speed target and flew at low altitude. The Indian Ministry of Defense said the missile system successfully tracked and engaged the target.

"The performance of the system was meticulously monitored and validated using various equipment such as radar electro-optical tracking system and telemetry system deployed at the Integrated Test Range Chandipur," the Indian Ministry of Defence said in a statement.

Indian Defense Minister Rajnath Singh praised DRDO and the Navy for the achievement, stressing that the test demonstrated the reliability and effectiveness of the VL-SRSAM weapon system. The test was aimed at validating several enhancements to the weapon system, including proximity fuse, seeker and accuracy.

In parallel, DRDO Chairman Samir V Kamat emphasized that this system will significantly enhance the operational capacity of the Indian Navy and act as a core force.

Ahead of the test, about 3,100 residents living within a 2.5 km radius of the launch pad were moved to temporary shelters for safety.

The event comes amid India's recent launch of its second nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine, INS Arighaat, a move that will significantly boost its deterrence capabilities.
