India successfully conducted 'Mission Divyastra' in March 2024, which involved the first flight test of an Agni-5 missile with Multiple Independently Targetable Re-entry Vehicle (MIRV) technology. This capability allows a single missile to carry and deliver multiple nuclear warheads to different targets simultaneously.

The Agni-V missile, along with other missiles in the Agni series, has been indigenously developed by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) of India.

The Agni-V is an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) with an operational range exceeding 5,000 kilometers, making it capable of reaching targets across continents.
