What is Multiple Independently Targetable Re-entry Vehicle?
Due to this technology, India's defense capability has increased many folds. This technology allows multiple warheads to be mounted on a single missile and can be fired at different targets. This means that different enemy targets from the same mission have come to Agni 5 phase. Only a few countries in the world have this technology available. This attack can be done very precisely on the target. The development of this technology has once again confirmed India's research capabilities.
