The VL-SRSAM, or Vertical Launch Short Range Surface-to-Air Missile, is a defensive weapon system designed to counter close-range aerial threats. India recently successfully tested it off the Odisha coast, demonstrating its capabilities. The test was conducted by DRDO in collaboration with the Indian Navy, and it met all performance expectations. Surface-to-air missiles like the VL-SRSAM play a crucial role in air defence by intercepting and neutralizing incoming aerial targets and enhancing the security of military installations and naval assets.
