India Successfully Test Flies SMART Anti-Submarine Missile System
SMART is a state-of-the-art missile-based lightweight torpedo delivery system meticulously developed by India's Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) to bolster the Indian Navy’s anti-submarine warfare prowess.
India has successfully conducted a flight test of the indigenously developed Supersonic Missile Assisted Release of Torpedo (SMART) anti-submarine missile system on Dr APJ Abdul Kalam Island, off the coast of Odisha's Balasore.
The SMART system boosts India's ability to counter underwater threats and improve its anti-submarine warfare capabilities using
cutting-edge technology and indigenous innovation.
Top Features That Make SMART Stand Out Among Others
SMART is a canister-based, long-range
anti-submarine missile powered by a dual-stage solid-propellant rocket and utilizes electro-mechanical actuators for course correction.
Developed by the DRDO for the Indian Navy, the missile has a range of 643 km carrying an advanced lightweight torpedo with a range of 20 km and a 50 kg high-explosive warhead that can be launched from a surface ship or a truck-based coastal battery.
Several state-of-the-art mechanisms, such as symmetric separation, ejection, and velocity control were validated in the test.
SMART uses a two-way data link connected to airborne or ship-based submarine detection and identification systems.
The objective behind the project is to develop a quick reaction system that can launch a torpedo from standoff distance.
The missile utilizes sea skimming in order to reduce detection range.
