Brahmos with 800-km Range capable of striking deep inside China - Coming Soon

[WARREN SS]

Just look at the flight profile of the Russian Tomahawk copy Kalibr, they're the same as with all subsonic anti-ship or land-attack cruise missiles.

are Noob Flight Profile changes Depends on terrain It raises Above If the Terrain is Mountainous What Are expecting Tomahawk Will Peirce through mountain

And Its not Invincible To OTH Radar or Modern AWACS

Even Brahmos is Flies Same Way During Booster Stage
0:12 that move.The abruptness of the maneuvering gives you a feeling of the missile software going "Nah, screw this ballistic thing, I know a shortcut

 

[WARREN SS]

If India wants a cutting edge Anti ship with landcattack capability cruise missile then the Norwegian Konsberg Naval Strike Missile right now is the best in the business. It should buy it for the IN so that you do not rely on a single platform Bhramos for attacks.


Another beauty of NSM is that it uses IR sensor for targetting so the target does not get alerted as compsred to radar based targetting sensor. It's also immune from electronic countermeasures like chaff or electronic jamming.

Brahmos Is Controtium like Tomahawk it has Different Versions

BrahMos-NG (Next Generation) is a mini version based on the existing BrahMos

BrahMos-II or BrahMos-2 hupersonic version


As For other options
The Indian Navy uses both 'Club-S' and 'Club-N' of 3M-54 Kalibr variants for the Kilo class submarines (known as the Sindhughosh Class in Indian service), the Talwar class frigates respectively

General Specifications and Advantages

• Mach 3 (2500-3000 km/hr) speed (which makes it very difficult to detect and track)
• 300 kg Semi-Armor piercing warhead (which causes massive damage upon impact)
• No wings (makes it harder to shoot down as winged missiles plunge into water after suffering wing damage)
• Very high kinetic energy on impact (which disintegrates smaller ships and cripples larger ones)
• S-manoeuver just a few seconds before impact (which makes interception very difficult)

What People forget Ballistic Missile. Its a ramjet supersonic cruise missile. So nope, it cannot be shot down with an anti-ballistic missile, since ABMs are used to shoot down ballistic missiles, not cruise missiles. To intercept a BrahMos, you will need state of the art CIWS (close-in weapon systems). And only a few CIWS have the capability (even through luck) to intercept the world’s fastest cruise missile.

Brahmos flies All flight supersonic


It's Flight trajectory is unpredictable
With Midcourse update
Its's shorter engagement time envelope makes it impossible for any know air defense system to engage it

Read US navy report

I can understand the national pride attached to Bhramos. But it's not invincible. The USN as early as 2003 already had a sea skimming ramjet-powered maneuvering practice anti ship missile called Coyote. Coyote's speed is Mach 3-4. They have been training on intercepting it using kenetic defenses.


And aside from kenetic defenses, there are also non-kenetic defenses against missiles such as Bhramos, which uses radar for targetting.

American Destroyer Packed New Electronic Warfare System During Black Sea Mission
Arguably a U.S. Navy surface combatant's most important weapon deals in electrons not high-explosives, and it's more important now than ever.





There are many versions of the AN/SLQ-32 ("Slick 32"), a system which has been in service in one form or another for nearly 40 years. It is not only an integral and critical part of ship's combat system and defenses but it is also a major node in America's sprawling electronic intelligence gather apparatus which keeps tabs on potential enemies' electronic order of battle through myriad of platforms and weapon systems.
Later and more elaborate variants of the AN/SLQ-32, like the AN/SLQ-32V5, even include active jammers arrayed around the ship—a peripheral system largely known by its nickname "Sidekick." This gives the vessel extended 360 degree jamming capability and is meant to counter the growing threat of ever more complex anti-ship missile systems.
The new Block II variant of the system introduces the beginning of a whole new level of hardware and expanded capabilities. Instead of the old "Slick 32" enclosure that features a hodgepodge of sensor and jamming arrays, the new system (AN/SLQ-32V6) uses a unified array that is far more capable when it comes to geolocating (interferometry), identifying, and classifying threats. It also leverages an enhanced back-end control system that is tied into the ship's combat system and defenses—namely its decoy control system—as well networked with other external sensors.

"This latest Block 2 upgrade will ensure the AN/SLQ-32 system allows the system to continue to outpace the threat and establishes a framework to easily install future upgrades... Preliminary results from the ships testing have been very exciting and exceeding our expectations. The system is providing detection capabilities that allow the warfighter to see the enemy before being seen.”

“SEWIP Block 3 brings active electronic attack across a wider frequency range…with digital processing that will facilitate new ‘intelligent’ EW processing that will enable the system to react to signals it has never seen before... SEWIP Block 3’s AESA array enables it to be a passive sensor, communication array, or a radar... It could also confuse or obscure aircraft and ship radars as part of the Navy’s new electromagnetic maneuver warfare concept."

Same Can Be said By every cruise missile on the planet

Now Coyote Is tested as Perimeter To old Soviet Club Series Cruise missiles Which go Supersonic at terminal phase

While Brahmos Is all Phase Supersonic cruise missile The missile’s speed of Mach 2.8 translates to 952 meters per second. Assuming the defender’s radar is mounted at a height of 20 meters, Brahmos will be detected at a range of 27 kilometers. This leaves the defender with just 28 seconds to track, illuminate and shoot down Brahmos before it impacts the ship at 3-4 Metres Steep Dive

Chances low Are based on Pure Luck And If Missile Are Fired in salvo it Surely Assure 1-2 hits (one high-velocity Kinetic Impact is enough to Sink Carrier)

I am Not sau\ying It impossible But It Far Hard In Simulated hit thats Is US navy termed It as threat

Coyote is supersonic on all its flight regime and does maneuvers in terminal phase much like Bhramos. Coyote that can reach Mach 4 is in fact is faster than Bhramos.

Bhramos' radar is its weakest link as it can easily be electronically attacked from stand off distances.

Firstly Brahmos Has Multiple Guidance that makes it more accurate and Jam resistant The missile used INS and GPS/GLONASS/GAGAN guidance with terminal homing via a radar seeker in the missile’s nose

Improvisation Is Key

The New version and Lighter BrahMos-NG will have a newly developed AESA radar seeker in place of the mechanically scanned one

For that Matter, It already tested By DRDO

No one is denying that the Americans can counter BrahMos. Aegis is the gold standard for naval air defence and the new AMDR and SM-6 combo gives it unprecedented punch.

The system was designed to counter the Soviet Backfire / Oscar + Shipwreck / Kitchen threat after all.

One important point however, we are not going to go to war with the US. Nor any of its close allies who possess Aegis derivatives.

Our primary enemy in the long term will be China. And as of now, it remains to be seen how good their systems are. It will be an interesting match up.

The brahmos capability was never aimed against the US. Come back when ChiPak does a demo like that. Also, if you think Indian Scientists do not read the Internet then I feel sorry for you. All I can see is one grainy video where coyote is flying around with no interception. Just as you can train SAM systems with a target, you can add more modes to Brahmos' flight profile. It also has some swarm attack characteristics which you seem to be ignoring.

None of these defense scenario consider an overwhelming saturation attack combined with anti radiation attack simultaneously on targets.

You think USA radars are immune to attack!!

Kinetic defense is an immature concept . No USA naval commander has endorsed it because despite years of talking it's still not a practical solution.

If a 30-40 billion $$ USA Carrier group is threatening a country like India and Russia they won't mind throwing 3 billion $ worth of supersonic / hypersonics missile at it.

3 billion usd gives you 1000 bramhos. No defense kinetic or otherwise is going to save that carries group. Period.

Bhramos' radar is its weakest link as it can easily be electronically attacked from stand off distances.

That's just misinformation. Coyote has a range of only 80km and it's terminal velocity is no more than Mach 2.5 . It only attains 3 Mach at high altitude.

Comparing that to a bramhos is just delusional. USA naval commanded are thankfully wiser than this and consider bramhos / oniks as a very dangerous threat .
