India's Agni 4: A Game Changer in Nuclear Deterrence? The recent successful test of the Agni 4 medium range ballistic missile marks a significant shift in India's nuclear posture.

One of the most striking aspects of the Agni 4 is its impressive 4,000 kilometer range, which allows it to reach deep into mainland China.
