NEW DELHI, Sha'ban 11, 1436, May 29, 2015, SPA -- An anti-ship Harpoon missile has been fired for the first time by an Indian Air Force jet during testing against a target in the Arabian Sea, UPI reported. The Hindustan Times on Friday reported the test occurred last week about 200 nautical miles off India's west coast and involved an IAF Jaguar, which was refueled during flight to carry out the mission. The report was based on information from an unidentified official source, who said the test was the first live-firing of an Harpoon since the Boeing-made missile was integrated onto the IAF Jaguar. --SPA 22:58 LOCAL TIME 19:58 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
