Indian Army test-fires newly acquired Israeli anti-tank missile in Madhya Pradesh
Spike, a fourth-generation weapon, can engage a target with precision at ranges up to 4 km
The Army on Wednesday successfully tested two newly acquired Spike long-range (LR) anti-tank guided missiles at the Infantry School at Mhow, Madhya Pradesh.
The Army has recently procured a small batch of 12 launchers and 250 missiles from Israel using its new financial powers to make emergency procurements sanctioned by the Defence Ministry a few months back.
“The delivery of Spike missiles has been completed, and they have been deployed in the western sector. The firing was undertaken on the sidelines of the annual Infantry Commanders’ Conference at Mhow and witnessed by Army chief General Bipin Rawat and other senior officers.
“Spike-LR is a fourth-generation missile, which can engage a target with precision at ranges up to 4 km. In addition to the fire-and-forget capability, the missile has the ability to fire, observe and update, providing substantial flexibility to the firer to pinpoint the impact point, as also the ability to switch to a different target mid-flight...,” the manufacturer, Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, of Israel said in a statement on Thursday. India became the 33rd country to induct the missile.
However, this Spike-LR missile is different from the one tested and short-listed as part of an earlier plan to buy over 8,000 missiles and 300 launchers, along with technology transfer.
