the following are thevarious types of missile systems to be developed indigenously or jointly by india over the next 10 years.
1) brahmos-2: this indigenous missile is to be a hypersonic speed(mach 8) long ranged(1000 kms) cruise missile but unlike brahmos is being developed indigenously.
2) astra
indigenous with seaker assistace from mbda) this missile having 80 kms range is being developed as the principal air to air missile of the indian airforce to equip the light combat aircraft tejas,mirage2000,su-30mki and the mig29.this missile is to be equipped with a variant of the mica's seaker.
3) pad
indigenous) this anti tactical ballistic missile capable of mach 5 speed and is capable of intercepting targets to an altitude of 50-80 kms.
4) aad
indigenous) this is a smaller version of pad and is capable of mach 5 speed and intercept altitudes of upto 30-50 kms and is being developed as a compliment for the pad.
5) maitri
indo-french) this missile is to be developed as part of a joint venture between drdo and mbda and is to incorporate technology developed as a part of the trishul missile project and the european mica missile,this is a short ranged surface to air missile having a range of 10-15 kms.
6) lora-e(israeli developed missile being developed by india): this multipurpose missile is being developed by israel for indian army and navy and the israeli armed forces and is being funded by india ,this missile was selected as opposed to the russian iskandar missile which was also offered to india.this missile is to have a range of 300kms and is expected to be capable of carrying a 500 kgs warhead,it is believed to be capable of both ballistic and cruise trajectories.lora stands from long range artillery.
7) barak-ng(indo-israeli joint venture project): this is a surface to air/anti tactical missile project being developed by india and israel jointly,for the indian and israeli armed force and is to be the pricipal surface to air weapon for the indian naval surface combatants.two variants are planned having ranges of 70-150 kms and speeds from 5-8 mach.
8) nirbhay
indigenous) this is a tomahawk type of land attack cruise ,having a range of 1000 kms,interestingly an indian company called ade was reported to be working on 750-1000 kms range cruise misisle variant of the lakshya drone,as part of that project a miniature sized turbofan engine was indigenously designed,the nirbhay or fearless may be equipped with these technologies.
9) agni-4
indigenous) this is an itermediate ballistic missile with a 5000-6000 kms range and would be capable of carrying a 1000-2000 kgs warhead ,including nuclear warheads,this is a followup project to the 3500 kms ranged agni-3 missile.
10) sagarika: sagarika is believe to a 1000 kms ranged missile being developed for the indian nuclear powered submarine and is expected to be made operational from the year 2009,sagarika means oceanic. it is however not yet confirmed wether it is a ballistic or a cruise missile.
india is also working on reusable hypersonic missiles capable of using liquid oxeygen - kerosene fuel capable of long range high speed flight ,it will be of relatively low cost as it will fly over the enemy terriotery launch its warhead and return back and can be used again,this project by drdo is known as the hstdv and the propulsion system has already been successfully ground tested ,the first flight of this misisle is expected in 2009,this project is independent of the indian space research organisations avtar hyperplane project and is expected to be capable of flight at speeds ranging from mach8 to mach10.
india is also reportedly working on indigenous air lunched precision guided land attack cruise missiles which will utilise the indian regional navigation system network .
