Correct Answer : Option (D) - BrahMos supersonic cruise missile
The naval variant of the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile, with an extended range of 350 to 400-km, and the indigenous Man-Portable anti-tank guided missile (MP-ATGM), with a 2.5-km strike range, were successfully tested on Tuesday(11th Jan 2022).
The BrahMos missile was fired from the Navy’s latest guided-missile destroyer INS Visakhapatnam, commissioned last November, to hit the designated target in a sea-to-sea mode with “precision”, a DRDO official said.
The low-weight, fire-and-forget MP-ATGM, in turn, was successfully flight-tested in its “final deliverable configuration”. The DRDO official said, “Launched from a man portable launcher integrated with thermal sight, the missile impacted the designated target and destroyed it.”
