New Delhi: A Pune-based defense company has successfully demonstrated firing of Xtra and Predator Hawk “Suryastra” rockets with ranges of 150 km and 300 km respectively at the Integrated Test Range in Chandipur, Odisha on May 18 and 19, reports Surendra Singh. Suntar is India’s first indigenous universal multi-calibre rocket launcher system, designed for precision surface-to-surface strikes against enemy targets. It bridges the gap between conventional field artillery and heavy ballistic missiles, providing the armed forces with a flexible, fast-responding and cost-effective precision weapons system. NSE-listed NIBE Ltd had received the purchase order from the Indian Army under emergency procurement for the supply of Suntri launchers and rockets.
