These developments are in step with future developments in several fields, that are directly and indirectly related. Just like we could not have had "Agni III" before "Agni II". These developments would open for us doors including those advanced technologies in the re-entry vehicles as well, that would enable us design manned space-crafts.
For Example, we see several negative views on our Nuclear Deal with the US. I, for one, believe that our country's energy need is a part of the whole basket. The most important part, once the deal is through, would be our access to the advanced technology in various related fields in which we are lacking. We may be requiring several decades before we reach that level. We have to grow in several fields and getting into next stage will always give us a head start. Restricting ourselves only to those that are relevant now, will make us crippled in several others, which may be having future implications.
