Life-size replicas of Brahmos, Prithvi and four other missiles are on display for visitors at the Missile Park in Science City here as part of an effort to showcase the great strides India has made in the field of defence technology, an official said.
The Missile Park has been developed jointly by the Centre for Millimeter-wave Semiconductor Devices and Systems (CMSDS), Kolkata, a unit of DRDO, and Science City, Kolkata, a part of the National Council of Science Museums (NCSM) to make people aware of the missile development programme of the country through these models, he said.
A statue of India’s Missile Man, former President A P J Abdul Kalam, has found a place in the park. An audio commentary automatically starts to give an overview of the country’s missile programme the moment a visitor stands in front of the statue.
