re: New BrahMos Cruise Missile: Range 500kms

when are we getting TOT for brahmos engine??

LF he said it is JV, both will bring in tech for the missile.

Russians have been promising TOT for years have never followed up on it. For Brahmos 2 we
are developing the scramjet so what are Russians contributing??

LF three projects in India are going on in the same time.

AVATAR fro ISRO
HSTDV from DRDO
Brahmos 2 from JV with Russia.

their range and payload is assumed as under
Avatar > HSTDV> Brahmos

HSTDV is global bomber/missile delivery platform.

So we are doing all the research that is needed beyond the Brahmos 2 missile.

Does this mean that India can increase the range of Brahmos.......

Play the video post #165 and seek to 22:30. Your question is answered.

re: New BrahMos Cruise Missile: Range 500kms

i don't know why is this clamour for increasing the range of bhranmos since an indegeneous mach 3.2 lrcm is in developement which is different from nirbhay.

BrahMos in IAF soon: Sivathanu Pillai

Published February 26, 2013 | By admin
SOURCE: THE HINDU

The programme for induction of BrahMos supersonic cruise missile with a speed of Mach 3 into the Indian Air Force will be ready by the end of 2014, A. Sivathanu Pillai, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of BrahMos Aerospace Private Limited, said here on Monday.

Speaking at the inauguration of a national conference on "Multifunctional Nano materials and Nano composites" at Bharathiar University, Mr. Pillai pointed out that BrahMos would be upgraded to a hypersonic cruise missile with a speed of Mach 7 by 2017. so fast ?

"While Europe, the U.S., and China are in the process of developing such missiles, efforts are under way in India to make Mach 8 possible. BrahMos Aerospace that was established at an outlay of 3 million U.S. dollars, has already crossed 5 million U.S. dollars in terms of business," Mr. Pillai said.

Pointing out that the Indian Army should be proud to be the only Army to have in its possession such a powerful cruise missile, he added that BrahMos was the first of its kind capable of destroying targets with maximum accuracy and could be launched from multiple platforms such as ships, mountains, plains and submarines.

Mr. Pillai was felicitated on the occasion on being conferred with Padma Bhushan recently.

G. James Pitchai, Vice-Chancellor of Bharathiar University, and Palani G. Periasamy, managing director of PGP Group of Companies, offered felicitations.BrahMos in IAF soon: Sivathanu Pillai | idrw.org

What about the 290 Km Brahmos thread ? have we merged that with this ?

Where is submarine launched version? And from which Submarine?

S. Pillai is a very good marketing man & know how to use media. He should be given the responsibility of HAL.

Simply tell me if any one of the dream project has fructified into a system that is in the hands of the forces serving the defence of India?
Whether it is Akash, Trishule, Nag < Arjun, LCA or Arihant or what is there and what not...

I am personally sick of this boasting, photoes and that "confined to project labs" products you keep yapping about....

DREDOs are proving to be an aimpediment for national security... inventing toilets and growing vegetables..

Brahmos missile.

I never paid attention to this fact, thanks to @ Payeng for bringing it to notice that at the time of launch brahmos missile fins are folded and later they slowly get unfold.

no fins

small fins are starting to deploy

small fins are out

cap separation

main fins deploy after cap separation

BrahMos can't be intercepted in next 20 years: Scientist | idrw.org

BrahMos, the world's only supersonic cruise missile and a symbol of the India's military prowess has been billed to be "uninterceptable" for the "next 20 years", by none other than the "father of BrahMos" himself.

"The equivalent of BrahMos is yet to built. And, in the next 20 years, it cannot be intercepted by an enemy," says A Sivathanu Pillai, scientist, and CEO and MD of BrahMos Aerospace sharing the vision for the future trajectory of growth for the iconic missile technology developed jointly by India and Russia.

Pillai, also Chief Controller (R and D), DRDO and hailed largely as the "father of BrahMos" mentions "missile technology" as one of the 10 key and "unique leap-frog technologies" for building a securer and greater future of India, "driven by youth power" in a new book which he has co-authored with the former President A P J Kalam.

Titled "Thoughts for Change: We can Do It", by two renowned scientific minds aims to be a clarion call to the youth of India to "reclaim its ancient scientific wisdom" even as it exhorts them to embrace and work towards building a future where "multiple technologies will intersect and interoperate".

"We take pride in the fact that BrahMos, world's only supersonic cruise missile, a symbol of Indo-Russian co- operation, where India provided the guidance, avionics, software and airframe components, etc, has been successfully delivered to both the Indian Navy and the Indian Army and the aerial version for the Indian Air Force too shall be ready in few years time," Pillai said in an interview.

BrahMos, developed jointly in a strategic partnership between Indian DRDO (Defence Research and Development Organisation) and Russian NPO Mashinostroyeniya, is a stealth cruise missile with a range of 290 km and travels at a speed of Mach 2.8 to 3.

The name BrahMos is a portmanteau formed from the names of two rivers, the Brahmaputra of India and the Moskva of Russia.

Among other technologies that the authors believe will lay the roadmap for the future of war theatres and health care, etc, in India is the convergence of Information, Biotechnology and Nanotechnology (nano-info-bio).

Other technologies in the list include – Robotics, Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Sciences; Sensor Technology; Materials Technology; High Energetics; Fusion Technology; Space Technology; Hypersonics and Green Technology.

"Nano-info-bio and their convergence will redefine the future as we know it, whether in changing the dynamics of the war theatre where information technology will be coupled with the existing biotechnology and the new and emerging field of nanotechnology or health care. A simple looking bird flying in the air could be a surveillance and reconnaissance device.

"As per health, drug delivery through nano tech has been tried on Parkinson's Syndrome and Epilepsy patients outside India and has shown to stop their symptoms like shaking of limbs and has even allowed them to walk, not possible otherwise. And, it is definitely a future India is looking to, given its huge youth bank," says Pillai.

Divided into five sections, the book in fact lays a special emphasis on the youth power, especially in the final section titled 'Future India' where it asks the young India to "think big" and to "assume the leadership role" in building a "knowledge society" for the world.

"India has currently 580 million youth population. And, every one among the youth of India must prepare himself or herself to do remarkable work, which will create a place for him or her in the history of the world. History is not written for cowards and one who thinks small," he said.

Fending off worries that the Indian youth has been diverted by a current phase of commercialism, the 'father of BrahMos' urges them to remain positive and "believe in the power of India".

"This current phase of commercialism luring the youth is only a temporary phase. After ten years, you will see, the youth of India will change. And, I and Mr Kalam, himself a popular force among the youth of the country, we both believe that the future of India is great. And, we have to be a positive force and not a negative one, and tackle the problems of the nation," he says.

Commenting on the lack of research culture in Indian universities and organisations, Pillai emphasised the need for government's greater attention and allocation of resources towards building a "research-based paradigm" in educational and research institutions.

"Government is spending 1.7 crore to make one IIT graduate. And, after graduation, the best brains go for either corporate jobs or to US universities, among others. And, then that country becomes a great country.

They leave because they don't have research opportunities back home and that's why we need to focus more on research – based paradigm. Because, when science grows, country grows," he said.

The book has been brought out by Pentagon Press and also contains illustrations accompanying the text.

Nice. For spreading optimism & morale-boosting but the statement is tinted with jingoism.

Reason: You never know the future. So, assertions prognosticating the future are better taken with a pinch of salt.

yeah i also feel that tech will reach that level in few years time, but this tech will be with very very few countries, either one or two countries, as it is very expensive.
