In many aspects, the Agni-V carries forward the Agni-III pedigree. With composites used extensively to reduce weight, and a third stage added on (the Agni-III was a two-stage missile), the Agni-5 can fly significantly more to inter-continental range. Total flight duration for the first flight test of Agni-V on 20 April 2012 was for 1130 seconds.
Weighing 12 tonne with a length of 15 metres, Agni-1 has a range of 700–900 km [7] and is capable of carrying a conventional payload of 1,000 kg (2,200 lb) or a nuclear warhead [1] at a speed of 2.5 km/s. [3] Agni missiles consist of one (short range) or two stages (intermediate-range).
In aerodynamics, a hypersonic speed is one that exceeds five times the speed of sound, often stated as starting at speeds of Mach 5 and above. [1] The precise Mach number at which a craft can be said to be flying at hypersonic speed varies, since individual physical changes in the airflow (like molecular dissociation and ionization) occur at ...

[5] [6] [7] The Minuteman III held three smaller W62 warheads, with yields of about 170 kilotons of TNT (710 TJ) each in place of the single 1.2 megatons of TNT (5.0 PJ) W56 used on the Minuteman II. [8]
