India to Get Another Major DRDO Missile Testing Range in Bengal The announcement that India will be getting another major Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) missile testing range in Bengal's Junput coastal village has sent ripples through the defence community.
The new facility is expected to boost the country's testing capabilities, providing a much needed infrastructure for the development and testing of advanced missiles.
A Long Time Coming The proposed testing range in Junput was first floated by DRDO in April 2024 but stalled due to bureaucratic hurdles.
