Indigenous precision guided bomb successfully tested

BENGALURU: A 1,000kg glide bomb designed and developed by Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) was successfully tested on Friday in Bay of Bengal off the coast of Odisha. The bomb was dropped by an Indian Air force aircraft.

"The bomb, guided by its 'on board navigation system' glided for nearly 100km before hitting the target with great precision," an official statement said.

The flight of the glide bomb was monitored by radars and electro-optic systems stationed at Integrated Test Range (ITR). Multiple DRDO laboratories — DARE, Bengaluru, ARDE, Pune and TBRL, Chandigarh along with RCI, Hyderabad which was the nodal — laboratory have contributed towards development of the glide bomb.

The complete avionics package and navigation system has been designed and developed by RCI. Scientific Advisor to the defence minister Avinash Chander said, "The nation today has the capability to design, developed and launch heavy bombs for delivery up to 100km away with high precision."
