 For launching missiles, rockets and flight test vehicles, a dedicated range known as Interim Test Range (ITR) was established in 1989. A number of test vehicles of different class including multirole missile Trishul, multitarget capability missile Akash, the antitank Nag missile, the most precise surface-to-surface missile Prithvi and the large scale technology demonstrator Agni have been test fired from this range. With its versatile technical and scientific capability, ITR has also supported a number of other missions such as Multibarrel Rocket Launcher—Pinaka and Pilotless Target Aircraft (PTA).
The range is spread over a length of 17 km along the sea coast
where a number of tracking instruments have been deployed to cover the
total flight path of the test vehicles. Some of the significant test
facilities at ITR are:
