if we go by the broacher diagram..its only a single stage missile with jetvanes..and no visible guiding fins for maneuvering like the prithvi which also folows a quasi trajectory(that what i found)...how come its 2 stage and mauverable then?

It primarily relies on jet vanes for thrust vectoring instead of fins. Calling it a MaRV would be incorrect but there's no explicit term for glide vehicles that glide within the atmosphere from launch to hit. It's essentially a depressed trajectory manoeuvrable ballistic missile.

MaRVs are ones that fly like normal ballistic missile warheads but start manoeuvring in terminal stage upon re-entry into atmosphere, Pralay doesn't leave the atmosphere.

Whatever happened to the Shaurya Silos that were built on western ABs?
They were never deployed to truly meaningful numbers and Brahmos was mass produced instead. (Not apples to Apples but the wallet is the same)

LRAShM - Long Range Anti-Ship Missile
Hypersonic "cruise-glide" vehicle based missile system.




LRAShM utilises a solid rocket booster to gain altitude to perform an exo-atmospheric re-entry and a powered-boost glide towards the target with a sustained rocket motor in the vehicle. Other HGVs perform atmospheric re-entry at much higher altitudes to be able to perform unpowered glide towards the target. So it's kind of a unique approach.

This essentially blends elements of a hypersonic glide vehicle with features of a hypersonic cruise missile, enabling sustained hypersonic manoeuvring without relying on gravity-assisted re-entry energy only.

It uses a Delta-winged body glide vehicle, unlike Conical body of BM-04 and Blended body of Dhvani.

Speed: Mach 8-10
Range: More than 1500 kilometres.

Can hit moving targets, obviously.

Whatever happened to the Shaurya Silos that were built on western ABs?

Shaurya is a nuclear payload delivery system, it has no conventional variant. Both Shaurya and it's Naval counterpart K-15 are under the Strategic Forces Command. BrahMos is a conventional missile, it has no nuclear variants and is not used by SFC.

Im not calling it a marv beacuse the mrav warhead detaches from the booster section and it glides to wards the target...the thing is how does it manuvers it self?...does the missile has a sustainer?...no visible control surfaces tho?...even the iskander has movable fins at the back for the terminal phase of the flight...unique flight path lol

Corrections: It is single stage booster, and is not MaRV the warhead itself doesn't detach. Media walahs kmkc.

India to approve deals worth $3.7b for Israeli defense missiles​

30 Oct, 2025 15:54
Dean Shmuel Elmas

The missiles will be manufactured by Israel Aerospace’s joint venture in India.​

India's Defense Procurement Procedure Administration, headed by Minister of Defense Rajnath Singh, will meet on November 23 to approve a series of defense deals with Israel worth about $3.762 billion. The deals include, among others, rockets for the ground forces and MR-SAM air defense missiles developed by Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) with local company BDL. Both the Indian Navy and the Indian Air Force are interested in procuring more than 300 units.

One of the essential advantages of Israeli defense industries in India in general, and of IAI in particular, is the early integration of their activities to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Make in India policy. As part of this, in March 2024, IAI established Indian subsidiary ASI. The company was founded as part of a collaboration between IAI, the Israeli Ministry of Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO) (MAFAT), the Indian government's defense research and development agency, to develop and support products manufactured for the Indian armed forces.

ASI has 50 employees, 97% of whom are Indian citizens. The company's offices are in Delhi, with branches throughout the subcontinent. The Indian subsidiary conducts transactions in the local currency, the rupee, and is the only company dealing in MR-SAM - an advanced system that provides protection against a variety of aerial threats and is used by the Indian Army, Air Force, and Navy. The system includes a phased array radar, a command and control system, mobile launchers, and interceptors equipped with an advanced radio frequency sensor.
