Crystal Maze 2: IAF Tests Missile

The Indian Air Force recently achieved a significant milestone by successfully testing the Crystal Maze 2 missile, also known as ROCKS, launched from a Su-30 MKI fighter jet over the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. This air-launched ballistic missile, originating from Israel and designed to strike high-value targets in GPS-denied environments, marks a major enhancement in the IAF's strike capabilities. With plans to procure these missiles in large numbers under the Make in India initiative, this successful test not only demonstrates India's growing defense capabilities but also its strategic autonomy in missile technology.
