Agni V can now reach Britain
Agni V is the backbone of the Indian missile unit. It is the most successful and most powerful missile available that is even capable of carrying nuclear warheads.
On December 15th 2022 the missile was tested successfully from APJ Abdul Kalam island off Orissa coast.
The test was successful and till that date the range of the Agni V was said to be near five thousand kilometers.
But from many DRDO sources recently it was confirmed that now the Agni V maximum range is near seven thousand.
This means now Britain also comes under this missile range.
China was claiming this for several years that the India is lying about the Agni V real range around ten thousand which is another wild claim.
China is doing this because China wants to put a stop on the Indian missile development program by passing a resolution in the UN.
However, the Indian government didn’t confirmed this news but still it assumed that this news is true because it’s coming from the DRDO.

How India increased the range of Agni V ?
This thing was achieved using the same method through which the range of Agni III and Agni IV was increased that is reducing the weight of the missile.
India used “composite material” instead of steel which helped reducing the Agni V overall weight upto 20% of it’s original weight.
What is composite material used in Agni V?
A composite material also known as a composition material is a type of material which is made by combining two different types of materials.
This composite material is used in many defence equipment across Indian army equipments for Example India Aircrafts.
The name of this material will not be released in public since it is made by the research of many years. And also because of piracy issues.
The composite material is the now the mainframe of the modern day weapon.
America just released an statement that they are developing new type of composite material for the hypersonic missile.
On the other hand China already claimed that they have already developed composite material for the hypersonic missile which is capable of sustaining three thousand degree heat.
