Agni-V is a land based nuclear MIRV-capable intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) developed by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) of India. Although the missile is officially classified as an "IRBM" with a range in excess of 5,500 kilometres (3,400 mi), experts estimate it to be an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) with a range of 8,000 km (5,000 mi). It is a three-stage, road-mobile, canisterised and solid-fueled ballistic missile. The missile reaches a speed of Mach 24 during its flight.
