India hopes to test its Agni 3 ballistic missile, which is expected to have a range of more than 3,000 kilometers, by the end of the year, an Indian official said yesterday (see GSN, Jan. 10).

“It (the test) should be some time in the later part of the year,” said V.K. Aatre, scientific adviser to Indian Defense Minister George Fernandes.  “It (the range) will be 3,000 kilometers plus, hopefully,” he added (CNN.com, Feb. 6).
