A look at the key features and recent developments concerning India’s powerful Pralay missile.
Pralay, meaning ‘Apocalypse’, is an indigenously developed short-range, surface-to-surface, quasi-ballistic missile. Designed for tactical battlefield use, it is capable of carrying a conventional warhead and is launched from a mobile platform, making it a highly versatile weapon.
The Pralay missile has been developed by India’s Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO). The development is based on the Prithvi Defence Vehicle from the Indian ballistic missile program and amalgamates technologies from the Prahaar tactical missile.
Pralay fills a crucial gap between the long-range strategic Agni series missiles and the shorter-range Pinaka multi-barrel rocket launcher system. Its purpose is to target key enemy installations such as command centers, communication hubs, and airfields with high precision, without being restricted by India’s ‘No First Use’ nuclear policy. Successful flight tests in July 2025 have validated its range and accuracy, paving the way for its induction into the Armed Forces.

Understanding ISRO’s powerful launch vehicle.
The GSLV is an expendable space launch vehicle designed, developed, and operated by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). It is primarily used to launch heavy satellites into Geosynchronous Transfer Orbits (GTO).
The GSLV is a three-stage launch vehicle featuring a solid first stage, a liquid second stage, and a powerful cryogenic upper stage.
While both are ISRO’s launch vehicles, the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) is India’s reliable “workhorse” for lighter payloads. The GSLV is designed to lift heavier payloads (2 to 2.5 tons) to higher geostationary orbits. The PSLV, not the GSLV, launched India’s first mission to the Moon, Chandrayaan-1.
