HYDERABAD: Even as Agni-III, the 3,500 km range ballistic missile, is getting operational, the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has begun work on Agni-IV, a 5,000 km range missile, to provide "enough capability" for a credible deterrence to the country.
"Work on the 5,000 km range missile is on and the first trial is expected to take place in early 2009," said V.K. Saraswat, Chief Controller, R&D (Missiles and Strategic Systems), DRDO. http://www.hindu.com/2007/08/09/stories/2007080961571300.htm
