No. Just that its higher then earlier version Agni-II





FRP is a generic name for all kinds of composite material, that includes the specif cone that you named. As for specifics, why go there?







Quality process in engineering is different from production QC. This is still engineering IMHO.

Reg. FRP, I now understand. I mistakenly thought FRP= glass-fiber reinforced plastic, which is a specific composite material.



Regarding propellant, read that USSR SS-20 used "OPAL" type, which is HTPB/AP/Al/HMX or HTPB/AP/Al/RDX ... these have better energy levels..there was some indication in a DRDO publication that LRSAM uses such a propellant (maybe without Al). So, hopefully, Agni series eventually get the same kind..



Qual. process. in engg. different from production QC even if the same organization (BDL) makes dev. prototypes as well as production model ?
