How ‘Indigenous’ is India’s Missile Program?
February 14, 2009France helped India master liquid-fuel technology by selling India the technology used to build the “Viking” engine used on the Ariane space launcher. India calls its version the “Vikas.” The Agni also needed a guidance system. The German Space Agency obliged with a long tutorial in rocket guidance, which allowed India to develop a guidance system and learn how to produce its components (gyroscopes, accelerometers and so forth). The German Space Agency also tested a model of the first stage of the SLV-3 in one of its wind tunnels in Cologne and helped India build its own rocket test facilities. Germany also trained Indians in how to make composite materials.
Thus, India’s biggest nuclear-capable missile is an international product. Under the mantle of peaceful space cooperation, the United States, France and Germany all helped create the most advanced nuclear missile in South Asia.

yeah its true, we are lagging far behind not only in the missiles program but the entire development process. Today we can see clearly the nation, Pakistan is making remarkable developments in many areas like industrialisation, modernization etc etc. Well good luck and hope that it will keep the pace of development.
Long live Pakisthan.
India would not have invested so heavily in defense if Pakisthan would not have exhisted. That would have left India vulnarable the way it was a few centuries ago.
Constant trouble from Pakisthan is like the common cold. It will not kill you, but it keeps your immune system up to date.
pakistan is making developments in areas od industralization?? dude it is a economy that is going negavtive, begging US and IMF for loans…has never ever launched a single satellite from its own land…yea it is definitely making huge progress…
Hey you used the word helped in each example you have mentioned it may be true or may be not. But as far as pak missile programs are concerned china dint helped pak but just transported those missile which you claims to be yours. And as far as Indian Space programs are concerned let me tell you even european countries launch their sats using Indian Launch vehicles.
those who have nerve of steal don’t show.What pakistan has today every body knows.All its missile
are korean and chinese make up.India has proved its
strength in space power,even chinese got scared off.
Simply buy saying that we are far ahead don’t serve the purpose.
what india is doing the world know very well, because of that all country heads arriving india frequantly to meet our indian leaders. At present india not looking pakistan as a therat, we are looking china as a therat so what ever pakistan media wright about our missile program we are much ahead with missile & space technology compare to pakistan.’Jai Hind’
lol..this should be voted the biggest joke of the century,pak missiles are transported directly from china and have same unreliability,talk about pak’s version of drdo….much of it exists on paper
