The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has proposed the development of a ground-based version of the RudraM-2 anti-radiation surface-to-surface missile system. Based on the air-launched variant of the RudraM-2, the ground-based version will incorporate a booster stage, enhancing its range and capabilities.
With a range of 300 kilometres and a payload of 200 kilograms, the RudraM-2 missile is capable of reaching speeds of up to Mach 5.5. Its advanced seekers can detect enemy radio frequencies and signals from radars at distances exceeding 100 kilometres.
The development of the ground-based RudraM-2 missile could be a significant step towards strengthening India’s air defence capabilities. The missile’s ability to target enemy radars and electronic warfare systems will provide a crucial deterrent against potential threats.
The DRDO’s proposal for the ground-based RudraM-2 missile aligns with India’s ongoing efforts to modernize its defence forces and indigenize military equipment. The development of this advanced missile system will not only enhance India’s military capabilities but also contribute to the growth of the domestic defence industry.
