Pinaka is a multiple rocket launcher

Pinaka is a multiple rocket launcher  :

Pinaka is a multiple rocket launcher produced in India and developed by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) for the Indian Army. The system has a maximum range of 40 km for Mark-I and 65 km for Mark-II,[4] and can fire a salvo of 12 HE rockets in 44 seconds, neutralising a target area of 3.9 km2. The system is mounted on a Tatra truck for mobility. Pinaka saw service during the Kargil War, where it was successful in neutralising enemy positions on the mountain tops. It has since been inducted into the Indian Army in large numbers.

As of 2014, about 5,000 missiles are being produced every year while an advanced variant is under development with enhanced range and accuracy
