INS Arihant carried out a successful launch of a Submarine Launched Ballistic Missile (SLBM) on October 14, 2022. The missile was tested to a predetermined range and impacted the target area in the Bay of Bengal with very high accuracy. All operational and technological parameters of the weapon system have been validated.

The successful user training launch of the SLBM by INS Arihant is significant to prove crew competency and validate the SSBN programme, a key element of Indiaโ€™s nuclear deterrence capability. A robust, survivable and assured retaliatory capability is in keeping with Indiaโ€™s policy to have โ€˜Credible Minimum Deterrenceโ€˜ that underpins its โ€˜No First Useโ€™ commitment.
