✅It will be particularly employed in the absence of other assets for immediate action when an enemy submarine is detected.

✅It is the canister-based missile system comprises several advanced subsystems including two-stage solid propulsion and precision inertial navigation.

✅It carries an advanced lightweight torpedo missile as a payload along with a parachute-based release mechanism.

✅Several state-of-the-art mechanisms, such as symmetric separation, ejection and velocity control, have been validated with this test.
