The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has achieved a significant milestone with the successful flight trials of the Guided Pinaka Weapon System. This advanced artillery system demonstrated its operational effectiveness, precision, and capabilities during the Provisional Staff Qualitative Requirements (PSQR) Validation Trials. Conducted in three phases across multiple field firing ranges, the tests evaluated key parameters such as range, accuracy, consistency, and rate of fire. The Pinaka system's development involved collaboration between multiple DRDO laboratories, including ARDE, RCI, DRDL, HEMRL, and PXE.
