India today test-fired its indigenously developed nuclear-capable Prithvi-II missile with a strike range of 350 km from Chandipur Integrated test range in Odisha.

Defence sources said the surface-to-surface missile was test fired from a mobile launcher at about 9.14 AM.
Inducted into India's Strategic Forces Command in 2003, the Prithvi II missile, the first missile to be developed by DRDO under India's Integrated Guided Missile Development Program.

Prithvi is capable of carrying 500 kg to 1000 kg of warheads and is thrusted by liquid propulsion twine engines.
The last user trial of Prithvi-II was successfully carried out from the same base on August 12, 2013.
