BrahMos will ensure the warship’s invincibility by engaging naval surface targets at long ranges, making the destroyer another lethal platform of Navy, defence ministry said.
The land-attack version of BrahMos missile was test-fired from a mobile autonomous launcher. BrahMos missiles are capable of being launched from submarines, ships, fighter jets or land.
CEO and MD of BrahMos Aerospace Sudhir Mishra tells ThePrint that land & warship versions of BrahMos supersonic missile have been inducted already. Now it's IAF's turn.
India successfully test-fired Brahmos from Su 30 fighter aircraft; Russia asked for Rs 1,300 crore for missile integration, Indian companies did it in Rs 80 crore.
Brahmos, the world’s fastest supersonic cruise missile was successfully launched on November 22nd for the first time from Indian Air Force’s (IAF) frontline fighter aircraft Sukhoi-30MKI against a sea-based target in the Bay of Bengal.
Despite reports and a perception that the missile is now ready and good for deployment, the Nirbhay has a long way to go before entering service with the armed forces.
In the storm around Sinauli, many academics dismissed claims of chariots being found. And the public misinterpreted the chariots as a device planted by the govt to fortify Hindutva.
Naidu’s summit brings in MoUs on same scale as Jagan’s, but CM says his plans built on speed, certainty & investor trust, with escrow accounts, simplified incentives & real-time oversight.
Without a Congress revival, there can be no challenge to the BJP pan-nationally. Modi’s party is growing, and almost entirely at the cost of the Congress.
This continuous modernisation of missile programs and diversification of delivery vehicles, specifically cruise missiles, by India is likely to aggravate the arms race further and will increase instability in the subcontinent. At the same time, this development by the Indian side will negatively impact deterrence stability in a number of ways. Cruise missile development with supersonic capabilities could place at risk a wide set of targets to precision strikes, lowering the nuclear threshold during a crisis.
