While the Brahmos could do this, the Prithvi-II has a wider diameter, carries more payload, goes 60 km further according to the nominal ranges.<br /><br />To Anonymous @ 12 June 2011 21:06,<br /><br />Even if the enemy was to attack us by surprise with a nuclear weapon, you can be sure that the reaction time within the civilian government will be long enough for the Prithvis to be mobilised and fuelled for a tactical nuclear response. <br /><br />The bottleneck is not in fuelling the missile but in deciding to launch it.<br /><br />The solid-fuelled Agni-III is ever-ready for a strategic response, which could include hitting first and asking questions later, but the will to do so must exist.<br /><br />The Shaurya solid-fuelled missile is said to have a CEP of 20 to 30 m.Pratik Dashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12045847543302909010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726844009873922462.post-12176496698818567482011-06-12T08:36:11.502-07:002011-06-12T08:36:11.502-07:00Good accuracy provided the enemy gives you enough ...Good accuracy provided the enemy gives you enough time and space to fuel and launch the dam thing. why do we keep testing this V2 copy when rest of the world has moved on except states like Iran and North Korea.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726844009873922462.post-61320808792826035502011-06-11T23:19:13.971-07:002011-06-11T23:19:13.971-07:00I think we will never be in a position to hit Papi...I think we will never be in a position to hit Papistan with Prithvi loaded with conventional weapons as it will be retaliated with nukes. So we will have the only choice to hit them with Prithvi loaded with nukes. In such cases the question of accurate CEP may not be really important.Mr. Ranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726844009873922462.post-59785882079620134862011-06-11T18:05:56.064-07:002011-06-11T18:05:56.064-07:00It appears that the prithvi II is still in develop...It appears that the prithvi II is still in development.
