Huge win for #India's scientists and technologists at DRDO. Successful anti-satellite (ASAT) missile system test. A low earth orbit satellite is targeted and destroyed. After #US, #Russia and #China, India fourth country to acquire this space capability. #MissionShakti
A quantum leap forward into the 21st century. Space is the future and #India is there. #MissionShakti is no less tectonic than #OperationShakti -- proud to be Indian.
Those asking whether #MissionShakti merited address to the nation by PM @narendramodi : Elections come and go, national achievements are forever. This is a big day for #India , a very big day.
After #India's successful Mars mission #Mangalyaan on 24 September 2014, the Americans mocked us. On 27 March 2019 India equals #US (and #China and #Russia) in ASAT spacewarfare capability. #MissionShakti
Those asking what's so great since #India had ASAT technology since 2012.
It's only now that the tech has been tested successfully. Sniffing at #MissionShakti is like mocking at #Balakot Our forces were ready to strike terror camps, but it's only now they were given a free hand.
