Explanation

The Integrated Guided Missile Development Program (IGMDP) is an Indian Ministry of Defence program for the research and development of a comprehensive range of missiles. Four projects were born under the IGMDP: Short range surface-to-surface missile (code-named Prithvi) Short range low-level surface-to-air missile (code-named Trishul) Medium range surface-to-air missile (code-named Akash) and Third-generation anti-tank missile (code-named Nag). The Agni missile was initially conceived in the IGMDP as a technology demonstrator project in the form of a re-entry vehicle, and was later upgraded to a ballistic missile with different ranges.
