IN yet another technological accomplishment, the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) successfully conducted the final round test of the solid fuel ducted ramjet (SFDR) propulsion-based missile system from a defence facility off Odisha coast on Friday.
The indigenously developed missile system was test fired from a static launcher at the launching complex-III of the integrated test range (ITR).
This was the third successful mission involving three different classes of missiles with indigenous technologies in a month.
Defence sources said the missile powered by SFDR met all mission objectives, validating the advanced propulsion system and several other critical components.
