<p>India claims to have successfully tested a short-range, nuclear-capable missile with a range of 220 miles.</p>
<p>The army twice fired the surface-to-surface missile Prithvi II from a range in Chandipur in the eastern state of Orissa, a senior official said.</p>
<p>The missile, which would target mainly military installations, can carry a warhead weighing up to 1,100lb (500kg).</p>
<p>It has already been tested more than half a dozen times. However, a test of the same missile three months ago failed due to technical problems.</p>
<p>India and long-time rival Pakistan routinely test-fire missiles, and usually notify each other ahead of the launches.</p>
<p>New Delhi has said it developed its current crop of missiles &#8211; including the short-range Prithvi, the anti-tank Nag and the supersonic BrahMos &#8211; as a deterrent against neighbours China and Pakistan.</p>
<p>India&#8217;s Agni-II missile, with a range of up to 1,250 miles, can put areas of southern China within striking distance. And the Agni-III, successfully tested last year, can carry nuclear warheads across much of Asia and the Middle East.</p>
