The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) twice successfully flight tested Indias indigenously developed third generation Anti Tank Guided Missile (ATGM) 'Nag' in Rajasthan on Friday.

The missile hit both the targets under different ranges and conditions with very high accuracy as desired by the armed forces, an official statement said.

"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," the release said.
