Agni-5: Kashmir to Kanyakumari in 10 Mins, Trains Take Hours

• Agni-5 is India's most advanced long-range Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM).
• It can cover approximately 3500-3700 km (e.g., Kashmir to Kanyakumari) in just 10-12 minutes.
• The missile has an official range of over 5000 km and is capable of carrying nuclear warheads.
• Agni-5 recently successfully tested MIRV technology, allowing it to deliver multiple warheads to different targets.
• Its high terminal speed and suborbital trajectory make it difficult for enemy defense systems to intercept.

Why It Matters: Agni-5's advanced speed and MIRV tech significantly strengthen India's strategic deterrence.
