The Indian Army is set to bolster its strategic capabilities with the deployment of Pralay ballistic missiles starting in 2026. These missiles, capable of striking targets at a range of 150 to 500 kilometres, are designed to counter threats from India’s northern borders.
The Pralay missile, a quasi-ballistic surface-to-surface missile, has been developed with advanced technology to evade interception by enemy interceptor missiles. Its unique design and trajectory make it a formidable weapon system.
The Indian Air Force (IAF) has also placed orders for 120 Pralay missiles, which are expected to begin deliveries later in 2025. These missiles were ordered in 2022 and will be integrated into the Combined Rocket Force upon its formation.
The Pralay ballistic missile has garnered international interest, with Armenia recently expressing its desire to acquire the missile from India. This indicates the missile’s potential to enhance the strategic capabilities of other countries as well.
The deployment of Pralay missiles will significantly strengthen India’s strategic deterrence capabilities and serve as a deterrent against potential aggression from neighboring countries.
