India to upgrade its military deployments in the disputed region claimed publicly for the CMB
Beijing, September 2 end of this month, India test-fired power newly developed improved “Agni -2″ medium-range ballistic missiles, and is considering the deployment of border areas near China’s 2,000 km range “Agni -2″ medium-range ballistic missiles to enhance its military strength in the region. Improved “Agni -2″ a range of 3,000 km eastern Indian state of Orissa government on September 2 on its Web site quoted the Indian Defence Research and Development Organization official as saying, plans this month in Orissa’s Wheeler Island test site first test of the newly developed modified “Agni -2″ medium-range ballistic missile to test its operational performance. The official said that the improved “Agni -2″ numbered missile “Agni -2 +”, playing the body length of approximately 21 meters and weighing about 17 tons, can carry a nuclear warhead weighing 1 ton. Its length, weight and payload and “Agni -2″ missile is not much difference, but a range of 3,000 km, makes up 2,000 km range “Agni -2″ and the 3,500 km range “Agni -3″ between blank. “Agni” series of ballistic missiles, India’s most powerful ground-ground ballistic missile, including “Agni -1″, “Agni -2″, “Agni -3″ and “Fire -5.” Intercontinental missile “Agni -5″ range of 5,000 km, Indian Defense Minister Antonio on August 27 said India was ready to launch the first intercontinental missile developed by “Agni -5.” But he did not disclose the specific test dates. July 2009, the Indian Defense Ministry officially approved development of the “Agni -5″ long-range missiles. Date from the project, the type of missile was called the outside world, “designed specifically for the Chinese” missile. Reportedly, the “Agni -5″ If successfully developed, can carry multiple nuclear warheads and a range of 5,000 km, including most areas of China including Beijing would be within their range. South Asia experts, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences Research Centre South Asia, Mr. Ye Hailin Secretary-General told the China Youth Daily reporter, said: “In both the development of improved ‘Agni -2′, ‘Agni -3′ or ‘fire -5′-type missiles, India’s immediate objective is to strengthen its deep strike capability against China. In order to expand its nuclear deterrent force to the hinterland of China, India will have to increasingly pursue missile range. if only to deal with Pakistan, India, with the ‘Agni – 2 ‘or’ land ‘on the short-range missiles, more than sufficient. “intended to deploy nuclear missiles in the Sino-Indian border has tested the Indian Ministry of Defense released the” Agni “series of missiles in the news, the reason triggered worldwide attention, mainly because they are the future potential deployment of ground – Sino-Indian border in the disputed region. “The Times of India” on August 26 quoted Indian Defense Ministry sources as saying the Indian government to consider the deployment of border areas near China’s ballistic missiles can carry nuclear warheads, including the “Agni -2″ medium-range ballistic missiles and “the earth – 2 “short-range surface-tactical ballistic missile. “Agni -2″ medium-range missile with a range of more than 2000 km, most recently successfully tested in May 2009, can carry a conventional warhead or a nuclear warhead. “Earth -2″ short-range missile with a range of about 300 km, can carry 500 kilograms of India’s indigenously developed nuclear warheads or conventional warheads. Since 1983, the implementation of “Integrated Guided Missile Development Programme”, India has been actively developing strategic nuclear forces, were successful in developing the “Earth” and “Fire,” two series of ballistic missiles. Earlier, the Indian military has been repeatedly stated in India, near the border between India and Pakistan to deploy these missiles, and said its more than similar products in China and Pakistan is more advanced. According to the Indian Ministry of Defence The source said the Indian Army had been in India’s West Bengal and surrounding areas north-west a lot of land requisition, preparing to deploy these missiles. In response, Mr. Ye Hailin analysis, said: “The reason why India near the Chinese border areas ‘Agni -2′-type missiles, the most important reason is limited by the missile range. ‘Agni -2′-type missile with a range of only 2,000 km. If it is deployed in other parts of India, and China’s major economic regions can not create a deterrent. Therefore, India was chosen as close as possible the deployment of China’s regions. If the range of 5,000 km of ‘Agni -5′ missile development is successful, even if deployed in other parts of India, China can also form a strategic deterrent. “Sheng Ji in repeated military deployments in the disputed region of India has more than once came to the deployment of missiles in the border areas of the news. This year in March, the Indian military announced the missile defense program, claiming that by 2012 the deployment of medium-range missile defense system. Indian officials said outright that it is against China and Pakistan. This year in May, the Indian media it came Mengliao: India plans to deploy in its northeast border, 6-air “Akash” missile with. According to reports, “Akash” missile all-weather medium-range surface to air missile system, with multi, multi-target area air defense capability and can attack from the enemy airspace helicopters, UAVs, fighter aircraft, subsonic cruise missiles and other strategic missiles. In recent months, India also has focused on its northeastern border to upgrade military infrastructure, including the most northeastern state of Assam in the deployment of Su-30MKI fighters, in the “Arunachal Pradesh” (Note: southern Tibet belongs to China, India’s illegal occupation of the region) the total strength of the deployment of up to 3 million people in the two mountain divisions, etc.; the same time the boundary is not amend the development road of the old military code of India began to open up more than 70 strategic border road. It is reported that about 2013 to 2015, “Agni -3″ medium-range ballistic missiles will also be active in the border area into the form of China’s deep strike capability. With the military Zhefan military deployment is the Indian media on a number of related issues in India continued speculation, and some even shouted “missiles against India in sight,” “dark clouds of war seem to erection” of the kind words.
