New Delhi: In fresh trials, the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has successfully test-fired the indigenously developed Anti-tank Guided Missile (ATGM) 'Nag'.

The missile was tested in a desert in the western sector of Rajasthan on Friday.

ATGM Nag successfully hit both targets under different ranges and conditions with very high accuracy as desired by the armed forces, ANI reported.

The Defence Ministry said Nag has been successfully flight tested twice by the DRDO against two different targets yesterday in Rajasthan. The missile can hit a target up to seven km.

With these two successful flight trials, and the flight test conducted earlier in June in the peak of summer, the complete functionality of Nag ATGM along with launcher system NAMICA has been established and marked the successful completion of development trials of Nag Missile.
