First Firing Unit Missile of MRSAM for Indian Air Force was flagged off by DG (M&SS) at BDL |

Before moving ahead, Let’s quickly understand the amazing features of the MRSAM missile. the Medium Range Surface to Air Missile is a high response, quick reaction, vertically launched supersonic missile, designed to neutralize enemy aerial threats. These threats include missiles, aircraft, guided bombs and helicopters. The missile has a range of up to 70 km and will be used by the Army, Navy and Air Force in different variants.

Talking about MRSAM development and testing, a contract was signed in February 2009. In January 2019, IAI entered a $93m agreement with the Indian Navy and Cochin Shipyard for providing Naval MRSAM. First firing unit missile of MSRAM(IAF) was flagged off by DG at BDL today. MRSAM is one of the most successful programmes showcasing joint development of a weapon system. BDL has already completed its Navy order, and now both the Army and Air Force programmes are moving simultaneously.
Talking about the design and features, Each MRSAM weapon system comprises one command and control system, one tracking radar, missiles, and mobile launcher systems.The mobile launcher is used to transport, emplace and launch up to eight canisterised missiles in two stacks. It can fire the missiles in single or ripple firing modes from the vertical firing position.The weapon is 4.5m-long, weighs approximately 276kg, and is equipped with canards and fins for control.

Talking about the performance, MRSAM surface-to-air missile is powered by a dual-pulse solid propulsion system developed by DRDO.The propulsion system, coupled with a thrust vector control system, allows the missile to move at a maximum speed of Mach 2. The weapon has the ability to engage multiple targets simultaneously at ranges of 70km.This state-of-the-art weapon system has been designed with active radio frequency seeker to identify, track, engage and destroy the target with high kill probability.The missile system can provide point and area defence against various aerial targets including fighter aircraft, subsonic and supersonic cruise missiles.BDL also aims to supply air-to-air missiles, anti-tank guided missiles, underwater weapons and counter measure systems in addition to Akash missiles to friendly countries.
