This is the second test-firing of the extended range version of the missile which … Talks could begin in 2017. Industry sources say that interested countries include Vietnam, Indonesia, and Venezuela. [75] In late January 2016, Russia confirmed that future Indian-made submarines would be armed with smaller version of the missile that could fit inside a torpedo tube. BrahMos. It has a two-stage propulsion system, with a solid-propellant rocket for initial acceleration and a liquid-fuelled ramjet responsible for sustained supersonic cruise. BrahMos supersonic cruise missile: India successfully conducted its second test-fire of the extended range BrahMos supersonic cruise missile on September 30. The person posting the comment will be in sole ownership of its responsibility. Prior to that on September 30 this year, a BrahMos missile carrying an indigenous booster and airframe section was successfully flight tested from ITR, Balasore in Odisha. India has offered the Philippines an arrangement to acquire the missiles through soft loan but President Rodrigo Duterte is reportedly not keen on taking the offer. The first regiment with five mobile launcher cost $83 million to set up. [65], The new navigation system uses an Indian chip called G3OM (GPS, GLONASS, GAGAN on a Module). It can be released from the height of 500 to 14,000 metres (1,640 to 46,000 ft). [47][48] On 14 June 2004, another test was conducted at ITR and BrahMos was fired from a mobile launcher. A similar test firing of the missile was conducted by the Indian Navy in the Arabian sea six weeks back. The system can be used in tandem with and Inertial Navigation System (INS) to provide high-accuracy targeting without using any seeker. [47] The Brahmos has been inducted in three regiments of the Indian Army. Submarine-launched, anti-ship variant – Tested successfully for the first time from a submerged pontoon on 20 March 2013. [67][68][69], BrahMos was tested with an Indian seeker for the first time on 22 March 2018,[70] and was tested with an India-developed propulsion system, airframe and power supply on 30 September 2019.[71]. BrahMos Aerospace planned to deliver the missile to the IAF in 2015, where it is expected to arm at least three squadrons. BrahMos successfully hit the intended target in two and a half minutes of launch. The plan is to acquire at least two batteries of the BrahMos cruise missiles with each battery having three mobile autonomous launchers. Each mobile autonomous launchers will consist of two to three missile tubes. [18], The high speed of the BrahMos likely gives it better target-penetration characteristics than lighter subsonic cruise-missiles, such as Tomahawk. BrahMos can be fired on both modes depending upon the user-designated profile.

On 26 February 2012, A. Sivathanu Pillai said that the air-launched version of BrahMos is being developed and will be tested by the end of 2012. It is expected to be ready for testing by 2020. [6] On 20 January 2020, the IAF commissioned its first squadron of Su-30MKI fighters equipped with the PJ-10 BrahMos-A missile. The BrahMos I Block-I for the army wa… [188], The former President of India, A. P. J. Abdul Kalam asked BrahMos Aerospace to develop an advanced version of the BrahMos cruise missile to maintain India's lead in the field. [189] He stated that a hypersonic version of BrahMos would be needed that could deliver its payload and return to base. This test was held on October 30. [239] In November 2020, Secretary of Defense Delfin Lorenzana said that the program to acquire medium-range ramjet supersonic BrahMos cruise missiles is moving forward but getting enough funds remains a challenge. [169], India and Russia intend to make 2,000 BrahMos supersonic cruise missiles over the next ten years through their joint venture company, and nearly 50% of them are expected to be exported to friendly countries. [73][74] The missile can be launched from a depth of 40 to 50 m (130 to 160 ft). It can engage ground targets from an altitude as low as 10 metres for surgical strikes without any collateral damage. The integration complex is located at Hyderabad and a production centre is located at Thiruvananthapuram. To carry the missile, the Su-30MKI undercarriage had to be strengthened, which also required new hard points and structural modifications. [79] An expert committee from the DRDO and the Indian Air Force (IAF) had ruled out any structural modifications to the Su-30MKI to carry the missile. BrahMos became the only supersonic cruise missile possessing advanced capability of selection of a particular land target amongst a group of targets, providing an edge to the user with precise hit. New Delhi: A naval version of the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile was successfully test-fired from an indigenously built stealth destroyer of the Indian Navy in the Arabian Sea on Sunday, officials said. The Rudram-1 is planned to be inducted into service by 2022. [80] On 22 October 2008, A. Sivathanu Pillai, Chief Controller, R&D, DRDO and CEO and managing director of BrahMos Aerospace, announced that trials and tests were to be carried out by 2011, and the IAF would get its own version of BrahMos by 2012. On 30 September, India had successfully test-fired a BrahMos supersonic cruise missile, with a domestically-manufactured booster from a test facility off the coast of the state of Odisha state.. For the test, the missile had to identify a building among a cluster of buildings in an urban environment. New Delhi: A naval version of the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile was successfully test-fired by the Indian Navy in the Bay of Bengal on Tuesday as part of a series of trials being carried out by the three services, official sources said. [231] Malaysia is also reported to be considering the purchase of the missile for use on its Kedah class warships[232] and fighter jets. [92] According to the CEO of BrahMos Aerospace, Sudhir Kumar Mishra, Brahmos-A when fired from Su-30 aircraft can reach targets thousands of kilometres away. The BrahMos (designated PJ-10)[15] is a medium-range ramjet supersonic cruise missile that can be launched from submarine, ships, aircraft, or land. In February 2010, a senior executive said that BrahMos was in negotiations with Chile, Brazil, South Africa and Indonesia regarding the purchase of the missile. India test-fires air launched version of BrahMos supersonic cruise missile. The missile was launched approximately around 10:03 am from a Mobile Autonomous Launcher (MAL). [16] It is a joint venture between the Russian Federation's NPO Mashinostroyeniya and India's Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), who together have formed BrahMos Aerospace. A similar test firing of the missile was conducted by the Indian Navy in the Arabian sea six weeks back. New Delhi: India Tuesday began a series of tests of the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile, even as work goes on to extend its range. [178] [15][179], BrahMos-NG (Next Generation) is a mini version based on the existing BrahMos, will have same 290 km range and mach 3.5 speed but it will weigh around 1.5 tons, 5 metres in length and 50 cm in diameter, making BrahMos-NG 50 percent lighter and three metres shorter than its predecessor. [76], The BrahMos-A is a modified air-launched variant of the missile with a range of 500 km which can be launched from a Sukhoi Su-30MKI as a standoff weapon. The missile engaged the designated mock targets close to 300 km away with a direct hit on the ground target in both cases with pinpoint accuracy from a mobile platform.

[22], 40 IAF SU-30MKI are to undergo modifications to be equipped to carry the missile. [22] A hypersonic version of the missile, BrahMos-II, is also presently under development with a speed of Mach 7–8 to boost aerial fast strike capability. [91] After the IAF successfully tested Brahmos from a Su-30MKI against a sea-based target, it declared on 17 December 2019 that the integration of BrahMos-A on Su-30 MKI is complete. Two Su-30MKI of the IAF would be modified by the HAL at its Nashik facility where they will also be integrated with the missile's aerial launcher. According to official sources, "The new seeker is unique and would help us to hit our targets, which are insignificant in terms of size, in a cluster of large buildings. The missile was fired from INS Chennai, a stealth destroyer, and it hit the target with pin-point accuracy … The vertical launch of BrahMos was conducted on 18 December 2008 from INS Ranvir. India Successfully Test-Fires BrahMos Supersonic Nuclear-Capable Cruise Missile From Sukhoi Su-30 [citation needed], One of the major issues regarding sales of the missile is that the nations looking to buy may have stressful relations with allies and trading partners of Russia. According to the agency's sources, India's Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) was able to boost the missile's range from around 300 kilometres (186 miles) to over 400 kilometres (250 miles). [93], In 2016, India became a member of the MTCR. This marking the completion of the development phase of BrahMos Block-II, and it was ready for induction. [44][45] The vertical launch of BrahMos was conducted on 18 December 2008 from INS Ranvir. India and Russia are now planning to jointly develop a new generation of Brahmos missiles with 1500 km-plus range and an ability to hit protected targets with pinpoint accuracy. It can be launched from submarine, ships, aircraft, or land. Twin firings was carried out as a part of the routine operational training. The missile was in a top-attack configuration, hitting a target in Bay of Bengal with pin point accuracy.Early copy: https://t.co/FSPuCDtwky@BrahMosMissile@akananth@DRDO_India @Onmanorama pic.twitter.com/5Yv1w2KvBd. On 5 March 2008, the land attack version of the missile was fired from the destroyer INS Rajput and the missile hit and destroyed the right target among a group of targets. The BRAHMOS test firing was conducted from Indian Navy’s indigenously-built stealth destroyer INS Chennai, hitting a target in the Arabian Sea. In the last two-and-half months, India has test fired a number of missiles including an anti-radiation missile named Rudram-1 which is planned to be inducted into service by 2022. This version of the BrahMos missile will use air-breathing scramjet propulsion technology and would be more fuel-efficient than a traditional rocket-powered missile. The comments posted here/below/in the given space are not on behalf of Onmanorama. BrahMos was first test-fired on 12 June 2001 from the Integrated Test Range (ITR), Chandipur in a vertical launch configuration. The Sukhoi SU-30MKI would carry three missiles while other combat aircraft would carry one each. India has test-fired a new version of the surface-to-surface supersonic cruise missile BrahMos and anti-radiation missile Rudram-1. Defence sources said the test, the second of the extended range BrahMos missile, took place from a land-based mobile launcher at 10.30 am. [214] The army has raised one regiment (numbered 861) of the Mark I and two missile regiments of the BrahMos Mark II, numbered 881 and 1889. This was the second time that the extended range version of BrahMos supersonic missile was test-fired. [15], The missile will arm the Sukhoi Su-30MKI, Mikoyan MiG-29K, HAL Tejas[183] and future inductions such as the Dassault Rafale,[17] Sukhoi Su-57, HAL FGFA, HAL MWF and possibly the Mikoyan MiG-35. The missile was launched from a land-based facility in Odisha. In 2019, India upgraded the missile with a new range of 650 km with plans to eventually upgrade all missiles to a range of 1500 km. It comes at a time when the original 290-km range BrahMos has already been deployed in Ladakh as well as Arunachal Pradesh during the ongoing military confrontation with China. [234] BrahMos Aerospace has said that several Southeast Asian and Latin American countries have expressed interest in the system, with particular interest in naval and coastal defense versions, and that a "definite list of countries" exists. [23], India wanted the BrahMos to be based on a mid range cruise missile like the P-700 Granit. [24][25], In 2016, as India became a member of the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR), India and Russia are now planning to jointly develop a new generation of Brahmos missiles with 800 km-plus range and an ability to hit protected targets with pinpoint accuracy. India successfully test-fires naval version of BrahMos missile from INS Chennai. On October 18, a naval version of the Brahmos missile was successfully test fired from an indigenously-built stealth destroyer of the Indian Navy in the Arabian sea. Both land attack and Air launched versions were tested in two firings. [185] A model of the new variant was showcased on 20 February 2013, at the 15th anniversary celebrations of BrahMos Corporations. BrahMos supersonic cruise missile successfully test fired from INS Chennai, will ensure warship's invincibility 72 days ago BrahMos joint venture started with corpus of Rs 1,300 cr, value now stands at Rs 40,000 cr 1 year ago India has successfully test-launched its latest generation land cruise missile BrahMos on its Nicobar islands, the news agency ANI reported Tuesday, citing defence sources.. BrahMos Aerospace Corporation's director Dr Sivathanu Pillai said, "The missile performance was absolutely normal until the last phase, but the missile missed the target, though it maintained the direction." This is the second test-firing of the extended range version of the missile which has an indigenously developed airframe and booster. “These missions by the users prove the reliability of BrahMos as one of the most potent weapons in modern warfare,” says a scientist. [175], BrahMos-II is a hypersonic cruise missile currently under development and is estimated to have a range of 600 km. Bengaluru: The anti-ship version of BrahMos supersonic cruise missile was successfully test-fired by Indian Navy today. [43] On 5 March 2008, the land attack version of the missile was fired from the destroyer INS Rajput and the missile hit and destroyed the right target among a group of targets. Fired from a moving ship at a decommissioned vessel, First production missile integrated at BrahMos Integration Complex, Hyderabad, Failed to correctly discriminate target located within a cluster, First successful test in a target discriminatory role, Operational test of the second army regiment, Developmental flight test with 25 new subsystems and components, Tested with a GLONASS navigation system derived from, Tested in steep dive-cum-target discrimination mode, First test with advanced guidance system and indigenously built software algorithm, 2 missiles tested in top attack configuration, Tested Indian fuel management system and a few non-metallic airframe components, Tested to validate service life extension of the missile under extreme weather conditions. The air version of the missile was also test-fired from a Sukhoi fighter last month, in an extended mission involving multiple Indian Air Force assets. With this successful mission, the indigenous content in the formidable weapon has reached a high value, thus bolstering India’s defence indigenisation and the flagship ‘Make in India’ programme. [88] On 22 November 2017, the missile was successfully test fired for the first time from a Sukhoi-30MKI against a sea-based target in the Bay of Bengal. As per this plan, the first test of the air-launched version of the missile was to be conducted by December 2012. BrahMos test with indigenous components has gone up now: DRDO Chairman Dr G Satheesh Reddy. China is one of the main nations that has objections about its neighbours getting these missiles for their navies. “Indian Army successfully launched its BrahMos supersonic cruise missile today in a top-attack configuration, hitting a target in the Bay of Bengal with pin point accuracy,” Southern Command of Indian Army said. The Block III version of the missile has successfully executed four operational launches in the past. This launch had paved the way for the serial production of the indigenous booster and other indigenous components of the BrahMos weapon system. BRAHMOS Supersonic Cruise Missile, with major indigenous systems, successfully test-fired. [190][191], BrahMos claims it has the capability of attacking surface targets by flying as low as five metres in altitude and the maximum altitude it can fly is 14,000 metres. More launches of the missile on different modes are lined up this week to test the accuracy and extended range of the weapon. [227], Several countries, including Philippines,[228] Vietnam,[229] South Africa, Egypt, Oman, Chile[230] and Brunei have expressed interest in the missile. [77] To reduce the missile's weight to 2.55 tons, many modifications were made like using a smaller booster, adding fins for airborne stability after launch, and relocating the connector. [49][50] The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) said that there were "small hitches" in the last stage of the test firing due to delay in input of satellite navigation input to the Inertial Navigation System, the missile travelled for 112 seconds instead of the slated 84 seconds and fell 7 km away from the target. The missile demonstrated the weapon’s unmatched lethal ability and formidable precision strike capability. [53] BrahMos was test-fired again on 29 March 2009. Tested with India-developed propulsion system, airframe and power supply. [226], In September 2016, it was revealed that the Russian Defense Ministry is interested in purchasing the air-launched BrahMos to arm their Su-30SM fighters. [46] The BrahMos I Block-I for the army was successfully tested with new capabilities in the deserts of Rajasthan, at a test range near Pokharan in December 2004 and March 2007. BrahMos-NG will have Land, Air, ship-borne and Submarine tube-launched variants. The missile was successfully test-fired for its full range of 290-km during the launch jointly conducted by DRDO and BrahMos Aerospace. The supersonic cruise missile is capable of hitting targets at more than 400-km range.The test was carried out under PJ-10 project of the Defence Research and Development Organisation(DRDO), under which the missile was launched with an indigenous booster. He also said that a new takeoff engine for the launching of the missile in air and at extremely high altitudes had been developed, and the initial test firing of the missile would be undertaken from the Su-30 MKI but did not specify the dates. The missile had hit a Battle Practice Target positioned in the Arabian Sea during the launch on October 18. [219][220], According to unspecified sources the BrahMos could be fitted to the updated Gorshkov class of frigates which will be entering the Russian Navy soon. “BrahMos has time and again proved that it can engage enemy’s vital targets with pin-pint accuracy,” an official said. The airframe and booster of the missile has been developed indigenously. Ship-launched, land-attack variant (operational), Land-launched, land-attack variant (operational), Land-launched, anti-ship variant (In induction, tested on 10 December 2010), BrahMos Block II land-attack variant (Operational), BrahMos Block III land-variant (being inducted). [176][177] Development could take 7–8 years to complete. The operational BrahMos regiments are:[14][217], India has deployed Brahmos along with long range cruise missile Nirbhay and Akash surface to air missile to deter Chinese aggression along the Line of Actual Control in eastern Ladakh. With this launch, the Indian army's requirement for land attacks with Block-II advanced seeker software with target discriminating capabilities was met. The missile was launched from a land-based facility in Odisha. [181] BrahMos-NG will have lesser RCS (radar cross section) compared to its predecessor, making it harder for air defense systems to locate and engage the target. (Courtesy: Indian Navy) THE Naval version of the BrahMos missile was successfully test fired on Tuesday morning from the Indian Navy’s Rajput-class destroyer INS Ranvijay, hitting a decommissioned target ship in the Bay of Bengal, as part of a series of … After release, the missile free falls for 100–150 metres, then goes into a cruise phase at 14,000 metres and finally the terminal phase at 15 metres. [40] Currently 65% of the missile is manufactured in India and there are plans to increase this to 85% by replacing the components with an Indian made seeker and booster. The system weighs around 17 grams, and gives accuracy below five metres using Indian, US and Russian navigation satellites. Air-breathing ramjet propulsion is much more fuel-efficient than rocket propulsion, giving the BrahMos a longer range than a pure rocket-powered missile would achieve.
