India marked a major milestone in its strategic capabilities with the first test of the K-4 submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) from an operational SSBN on November 27. Viewers may note that prior to this, the missile had undergone at least two tests, both conducted using an underwater pontoon.
The nuclear-capable missile, boasting a range of 3,500 km or around 2,175 miles, was launched from INS Arighaat Ballistic Missile Submarine, which entered service earlier this year.
This advancement significantly enhances India’s nuclear triad, bolstering its second-strike capability to deter adversaries while overcoming operational challenges.
