    BrahMos Cruise Missile

    Well no international sale part can be partly explained by the high cost of the Missile. Not everything is available as a lot of tests were carried out by the Russians onboard one of their ships. And we need both of us to agree upon the sale to a particular country. The countries who can...

    BrahMos Cruise Missile

    There is only one way to find it out. That is when the High Command of Indian Navy gets high on a drug from another planet and proposes an attack on Diego Garcia. All Missiles can be defeated and all countermeasures too can be defeated. That is one thing I know. On Paper Bhramos claims that It...

    BrahMos Cruise Missile

    DBC...does Pakistan or China have Sea Scorpion? MK 13 launchers are removed from the OHP frigate being supplied by the US. Refurbishment is for 68 million a ship. They are getting Harpoons along with it. That is all and the ship is for ASW and coastal Patrol. The type 054A 2 in numbers are the...

    BrahMos Cruise Missile

    Yes and the bhramos has a robust jamming and ECCM suite in it. It might not be comparable to something in a Harpoon block II but it is robust enough for the threats in the region.

    BrahMos Cruise Missile

    Yes it can. But wouldnt 1 out of 4 get inside all the stingers because the speed of the Bhramos is Mach 2.8 and it does a zig zag trajectory before hitting the target. And the range of the stinger is 5 kms and it takes only 1.2 seconds for Bhramos to reach the target. Being a sea skimming...

    BrahMos Cruise Missile

    Armand.. you still dont get it... How the hell will the seeker in the stinger detect a Bhramos?...the probablity of hit is very low. Yes it can be defeated. But not as easily when 4 or 5 Bhramos are fired at a single ship. And Bhramos detonates after impact. Any ship is detectable at the range...

    BrahMos Cruise Missile

    Armand. Pakistan is yet to get it's first OHP here. And how the hell will IMF let them buy it? And will the US government give it for free? The Chinese cannot field something as good as the Aegis anytime soon or atleast the MF-Star. The navies capable of intercepting the Bhramos have good...

    BrahMos Cruise Missile

    Yes I thouroughly understand the design principle of MiG 21. It cant house a radar because it constitutes the air inlet through the nose cone. But the size of the nose is big enough to house a large enough radar to track a ship atleast 50 kms away. You dont need an OTH radar for ship sized...

    BrahMos Cruise Missile

    And the LRCS might work in case of radar assisted detonation. If detonation by impact is the criteria then the LRCS is one big chaff that is thrown at the missile. If the Bhramos dosent impact it will lock on to the nearest target available.

    BrahMos Cruise Missile

    Well DBC...The Bhramos will be used with the saturation attack. Around 4 missiles will be fired. Bhramos AI also has LOAL capability. So even if the target is destroyed the other Bhramos will home into the nearest target. So It can be intercepted as the US has been working to counter the Sunburn...

    BrahMos Cruise Missile

    Well if you have Missiles with greater range and cheaper than Bhramos why deploy Bhramos?

    BrahMos Cruise Missile

    But the whole company is a joint venture between Mashinostreya and Bhramos corporation with a 51% stake with India and 49% stake with mashinostreya. Well it can be used as a platform to develop new technologies and DRDO and Mashinostrya can only absorb technologies from it.
