With a Successful Test of the New Anti-Submarine Missile SMART, the Indian Navy Significantly Advances Its Naval Capabilities, Demonstrating Technological Self-Sufficiency and Reinforcing Its Position as a Regional Defensive Power Able to Effectively and Accurately Address Undersea Threats.

The Indian Navy, in a significant strategic move, successfully tested an anti-submarine missile capable of hitting underwater targets at great depths. This test was conducted by the Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO) on Abdul Kalam Island, located off the coast of Odisha, as revealed by the Ministry of Defense.

The new missile, known as SMART (Submarine-Tracking Assisted Missile for Torpedo Launch), is part of advanced technology aimed at transforming the Indian Navy’s anti-submarine missile operations.

SMART, of the Indian Navy, Extends Operational Range Beyond Traditional Light Torpedo Capabilities

With its innovative design, SMART extends the operational range beyond traditional light torpedo capabilities, incorporating technologies such as a dual-stage propulsion system, electromechanical actuators, and a high-precision inertial navigation system.
