On July 25, India successfully tested the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)-V3 precision-guided missile (ULPGM) from an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) at the National Open Range (NOAR) in Kurnool district, Andhra Pradesh state.
This result shows that India has made further progress in enhancing the precision strike capabilities of UAVs, one of the main focuses in modern warfare strategies.
In a post on social media X, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh congratulated the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and its industry partners, SMEs, and startups for the successful development and successful test of the ULPGM-V3 missile. He said that this is an effort to significantly enhance India’s defence capabilities.
Currently, the detailed technical specifications of the ULPGM-V3 are still kept secret, but the development of this missile is part of the technology roadmap of India's guided missile development program.
Earlier, ULPGM-V2 was developed by the Terminal Ballistics Research Laboratory of DRDO, with multiple warhead configurations.
The development is aimed at a long-range UAV-launched weapon, unveiled at the Aero India 2025 show and includes sophisticated improvements such as an imaging infrared (IIR) seeker and a dual propulsion system, features that will likely also appear in the V3 variant.
The ULPGM system is designed to be lightweight, precise and compatible with a variety of airborne platforms, providing strategic flexibility in combat environments.
This successful test marks an important step forward in India's efforts to become self-reliant in key defense technology./.
