it is all here; Brahmos Mach 6 was just tested successfully
Pintu you are forgetting shauriya.
The BMD is several years away from deployment.I don't give a damn about Pakistan's missile.. but sure they ve some bite in it.. But our BMD has passed three times out of 3.. i would like to use a real simulation rather than launch a missile on a calculated track and check if the AM hits it.. for more accuracy missile should be launched by a diffrerent team then, another team tracks it and hits. that would be real test.
Ideally we are supposed to have far more ABMs and SAMs than Pak has BMs and CMs.And if Pak launches a NUKE missile, how are we to distinguish btw normal cruise and nuke one's []
India follows a Unilateral NFU policy, Pak and China are not constrained by this. Brahmos being under MTCR doesn't field nuclear warhead.Thats the main problem of war with China or PAk, in the event of which when they employ their long range cruise missiles, we'll have no clue as to whether they are conventional or nuke loaded and hence any war could quickly turn nuclear. Its the same for them if we fire one of our brahmos in anger they have no idea whether its nuke or conventional load and thus they will retaliate thinking our missile is a nuke.
AAD and PAD are under development.The AAD and PAD have been tested and 2 more tests are required for them to be considered ready for induction an this will happen sometime end of this year and next year. They are effective and indeed hit targets very well.
Google : Mig-31, Akash, Manpads,Pechora,Tunguska,Stinger, AA Guns.But we do lack good defenses for cruise missiles and currently the only platform known to have the ability to counter terrain hugging cruise missiles is the SH.
Nope. google: Radar Horizon.Ballistic missiles can also be detected as soon as they are launched by our Swordfish radars
It does'nt matter as the missile will b destroyed...[/QUOTE]And if Pak launches a NUKE missile, how are we to distinguish btw normal cruise and nuke one's []
Unsubstantiated BS.right now the military itself says it has no effective counter measures against terrain hugging cruise missiles and as of now we are not as shielded as we can be, hence the Navy's interest in the Super Hornet.
IMO at least for the next decade or so, Chinese BMs will outnumber our ABMs. The only way we can tilt the balance in our favour by taking out all the nuclear tipped warheads from the decoys.India may not get all the Chinese missiles some may possibly get thru
Yep, China doesn't have a credible BMDbut the Indian hypersonic missiles will all get thru 100% against any Chinese defense
Nothing credibleAlso your claim about the Indian hypersonic missiles, do you know what the Chinese field for missile defense?
Brahmos is operational. Hypersonic Cruise missiles are still under development.The Bhramos version that India has is not hypersonic. That system is still under development and there are no operational units again
Kuku, some S-300 versions have limited ABM capability against SRBM/IRBMS-300 versions, copies and modifications.
Nothing that has good record in dealing with ICBMs.
But then again not many ICBMs in the region (outside PRC)
India's BMD shield will fieldlook it up, it's all here in the forum, brahmos is just one of the hypersonic missiles. Currently it is 2 layers in the future it will be 3 layers so it will be even harder to penetrate.
Shaurya is a low altitude (quasi)BM not a CM.Pintu you are forgetting shauriya.
It will be a TD, its technology though can be incorporated to make a Hypersonic CM. !guys HSTDV project, we are waiting for its test
