India on Thursday successfully tested indigenously developed Advanced Air Defence (AAD) supersonic interceptor missile from test range in Odisha. It is capable of destroying any incoming ballistic missile. This was the third supersonic interceptor test carried out this year in which an incoming ballistic missile target was successfully intercepted, within 30 km altitude of the earth's atmosphere by an interceptor. "It was a direct hit and grand success," Defence sources said after the test launch. The earlier two tests were conducted on March 1 and February 11, 2017, as part of efforts to have a full-fledged multi-layer Ballistic Missile Defence system.
