Serial production of A-SAT missile is government’s decision: Former DRDO chief

Dr S Christopher, former DRDO Director-General told Times Now that he is extremely happy how the current DRDO Chairman Dr G Satheesh Reddy and his team completed the successful anti-satellite (A-SAT) missile project in record time and in a short time.  He said he is extremely happy how the project brought glory to the country.  “I am happy that Dr S Reddy and his team have taken it forward in a very short time and brought glory to the country. It’s a proud moment. Talking about the system, it was a fallout of earlier programs”. When asked if he thinks that weaponisation of ASAT missile is something India should pursue? “We don’t have to weaponise in case of a direct hit. However, its government’s decision if serial production of these assets are required.”
