If it travels all the distance at 3-4 m , then the range will be just 40-50% of original (120km in 300km version, 200km in 500km version) due to thick atmosphere .BrahMos has a very low approach profile 3-4 m above sea level. Unless you have specific radar complexes designed to look out for cruise missiles, even Patriot SAM batteries can't help you. Case in point.

Even then your reaction time is a fraction of that of a subsonic missile. Is it a coincidence that the US operationalized the SM6 as an AsHM?

H-L-L (100km in high, 100 km in low)
L-L-L(150 km in low)
