| Source measurement | — | Sagarika ( pronounced: sɑːgərikɑː ) ( lit. ' Oceanic ' ), also known by the code names K-15 or B-05 or PJ-08 , is an Indian submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) with a range of 750 kilometres (466 mi) that was designed for retaliatory nuclear strikes. It belongs to the K Missile family and forms a part of India's nuclear triad .[source]Sagarika (missile) · Lead; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The K-15 is a two-stage submarine-launched ballistic missile which uses a gas booster to eject out of its launch platform and rise up to the surface of water. A solid rocket motor is fired after the missile reaches a fixed altitude. The missile has a range of around 750 kilometres (466 mi).[source]Sagarika (missile) · Description; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage By 2008, the missile was successfully test fired seven times, and tested to its full range up to four times. The tests of 26 February 2008, were conducted from a submerged pontoon 50 metres (160 ft) beneath the surface off the coast of Visakhapatnam .[source]Sagarika (missile) · Testing; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The missile was test fired on 26 December 2012 in full operational configuration after being delayed from November. Though two tests were scheduled, one from a pontoon and other from a live submarine, the latter task was cancelled and scheduled for a later day the following year. The missile was fired from a depth of 20-40 m with the help of a gas generator and reached an altitude of 20 km (12 mi). It was tested at a range of 650 km (400 mi) during its 11th developmental trial. A.K. Chakrabarti was the then Programme Director of the K-15 programme and was also the Director of the Defence Research and Development Laboratory (DRDL).[source]Sagarika (missile) · Testing; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The twelfth and final development trial of the missiles was conducted on 27 January 2013. According to DRDO Director General V. K. Saraswat , the missile was again tested for its full range of 700 km and met all its objectives with a single digit impact-accuracy. The test will be followed by integration of the missile with INS Arihant .[source]Sagarika (missile) · Testing; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage |
