Match List I with List II and select the correct answer using the code given below the lists : Code :List I
(Missile) List II

a-iv, b-iii, c-i, d-ii
Each missile in List I has one defining role, so the code follows once every launch platform and target are identified.
| Missile | Type and why |
| a. Akash | iv. Surface-to-Air Missile — a medium-range air-defence system fired from a ground launcher against aircraft |
| b. BrahMos | iii. Supersonic Cruise Missile — the India-Russia cruise missile that flies at nearly three times the speed of sound |
| c. Astra | i. Beyond Visual Range Air-to-Air Missile — launched from a fighter at a target too distant for the pilot to see |
| d. Helina | ii. Anti-Tank Guided Missile — the helicopter-launched version of Nag, used against armour |
Reading the pairs off the table gives a-iv, b-iii, c-i, d-ii.
Hence, the answer is a-iv, b-iii, c-i, d-ii.
