India successfully tests anti-satellite weapon: Modi

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday said India shot down a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite, which was a pre-determined target, reports Hindustan Times.

 

He said India has become a “space superpower” with the successful testing of anti-satellite weapon.

 

PM Modi said India is only the fourth nation after the US, Russia and China.

 

“A short while ago, India has shot down an LEO satellite by anti-satellite missile. It was conducted under Mission Shakti, which was completed in three minutes,” PM Modi said in a special address.

 

“India has entered its name as an elite space power. An anti-satellite weapon, A-SAT, successfully targeted a live satellite on a low earth orbit,” the prime minister said in a televised address.
