Akash-NG ranges all over the place after recent tests: 30 Km, 50 Km, 60 Km etc
When tests were repeatedly done in 2021 and 2022, the range was consistently claimed to be in the 70 - 80 Km range - a.k.a its a replacement for MRSAM/Barak-8
And the 70 - 80 Km range makes sense because DRDO built the dual-pulse motor tech for the MRSAM. Akash-NG is nothing but the indigenous equivalent of the MRSAM. That's why the Janes report above says that its tail fins have a resemblance
Yehudis will try via their import lobby buddies to scuttle the Akash-NG induction or limit its order size
