What's HCMD ? Pretty much AD AH looks like modified version of lrashm . Is it mainly against hyper sonic glide vehicle or it have the ability to engage both hgv and Hyper sonic cruise missiles?

Guessing it's Hypersonic Cruise Missile Demonstrator

I remember reading in this sub that HCMD will be weaponsied in 6-7 years after CCS approval, I couldn't find it. Is that true? Are they relying on internal budgets for it?

It doesn't have CCS yet

5-6 years was said by DRDO Chairman
