Tests of the Indian NAG rocket failed again

The long-awaited anti-tank missile system Nag developed by DRDO suffered another failure on the test.

During the tests conducted at the Majadjan test site in the state of Rajasthan in the presence of high-ranking army officials and DRDO leaders, the missiles were launched from a modified Namica anti-tank carrier (BMP-2), sources said. Of the four Nag missiles, only one was able to hit the target, the rest could not do it due to a failure in the onboard equipment of the missile, they said.

The higher ranks of the army were not enthusiastic about the tests and asked the agency to prepare better in the future, they said. The rocket was developed as part of a comprehensive development program for guided missiles launched in the 1980s, and it is expected that the creation of a rocket will take a few more years before being put into service.

      Most likely, the diagnosis is ----- crooked hands. Some Indians haven’t gotten good luck with military equipment. Then Nat Pturs has been tortured for 32 years, I’m not talking about the tank - it's pure horror.

      It would be something to sell. Is Russia armed with many IV generation ATGMs?

        If the previous "cheap" ones hit armored vehicles once, is it worth buying new generations, which will soon exceed the cost of armored vehicles? winked

          It is truth too. The rocket is cheap, the installation is the same. New calculations in return for the dead can be prepared quickly enough.

            We need to cook the old ones with high quality, and everything will be "like on Russian radio". Everything is decided by the tactics of use and the saturation of the battlefield with means of destruction.

              No quality of preparation will allow you to tear yourself away from the target until the rocket hits the target, even crack.
              As for the "saturation" - the enemy is also actively saturating his battle formations with means of destruction. And targets using precision weapons will be destroyed first.

                And what about the use of medium and short range, how about ambushes or the use of old complexes at fortified points and do not forget about the partisans.

      Naturally! Very often they began to look in the direction of foams - they got to look.
      Let them scratch their turnips, maybe they’ll come up with something. Let them try to take another step. Maybe it will at least bring down satellites. wink

        The missile is trying to repeat the characteristics of the Israeli Spike, so that they can sell something to help the Russian Federation.
        but what prevents Spike from copying --- which Indians bought for a billion bucks.

    As far as I understand, this missile operates on the principle of being shot and forgotten and must hit the enemy’s equipment in the upper projection (tower). She has her own homing head. We ourselves do not have such missiles yet. All fly by wire.

    Indians have one problem.
    the Britons kept them on their palms. After gaining independence, the Union passed on to them almost all of the latest achievements. Therefore, they had a big chunk of development — the ability to develop from beginning to end. Here they are trying to create our ideas and materials with us, their assembly . yes and there are few skilled workers there. I have come across all this myself

    Well, among the Indians, the goal is structured and they systematically go to it, because they know what they want. And there are fewer internal enemies than ours, so they will finish it over time.
