AGNI 5: The Indian Missile That Redefines Military Power in Asia
What happens when India's AGNI 5 meets China's S-400? It’s a breakdown of the ultimate aerial showdown.
The S-400 system, purchased from Russia, is designed to intercept incoming threats. But the AGNI 5 is no ordinary missile. With its 8,000 km range and game-changing MIRV technology, it carries multiple nuclear warheads—making total interception virtually impossible.
We explain why even if the Chinese air defense system successfully takes down a few warheads, the remaining payload is enough to successfully hit multiple targets and major Chinese cities. Understand the crucial concept of MIRV and why it’s a critical component of modern defense strategy.
