NEW DELHI, July 26 -- India on Friday carried out flight trials of a drone-launched missile at a test range in Kurnool, Andhra Pradesh, a weapon that has anti-armour and anti-bunker capabilities, the defence ministry said. The unmanned aerial vehicle launched precision guided missile (ULPGM-V3) is an upgraded version of a weapon (ULPGM-V2) developed and delivered by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO). "The ULPGM-V3 is equipped with a high definition dual-channel seeker that can strike a variety of targets. It can be fired in plain and high-altitude areas. It has day-and-night capability and two-way data link to support post-launch target/aim-point update," the ministry said in a statement, adding that it would provide a major boost to India's defence capabilities. Last week, chief of defence staff General Anil Chauhan said Operation Sindoor showed why locally developed unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and counter-UAS "built for our terrain and our needs are crucial," stressing that India cannot rely on imported niche technology. The defence ministry elaborated on the capabilities of the new weapon. "The missile is equipped with three modular warhead options: Anti-armour to destroy modern age armoured vehicles, penetration-cum-blast warhead with anti-bunker application, and pre-fragmentation warhead with a high lethality zone." The missile was released from a UAV developed by an Indian start-up: NewSpace Research Technologies, Bengaluru....
