Q. Agni-4 Missile, recently seen in the news, is developed by which organization?
Answer:
DRDO
Notes: The Agni-4 missile, developed by DRDO, was successfully tested on 6 September 2024 from Odisha's Integrated Test Range. This was the ninth test of the nuclear-capable intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM). The test was conducted by India's Strategic Forces Command, which oversees all nuclear weapons. Agni-4 can carry nuclear weapons and will be controlled by the Strategic Forces Command. Development of Agni-4 began in 2007 to strengthen India’s nuclear deterrence against China and Pakistan. The first test in 2010 failed, but the first successful user trial occurred in 2014.
