Ah Prism with his worthless one liners. You make your country proud. A person from country who has yet to fully induct a mirage 5 copy truly deserves praise.
Actually 300 Km is in high high high engagement. If the Brahmos is to have a chance it will need to go low low low which drops its range to 120Km, which also drops its speed to 1.5 mach. Otherwise it would be detected far too early by the massive AESA radars on the Ex Varyag.
I keep wondering where Indians and Vietnamese get the idea that supersonic missiles can not be stopped. Even high hyper sonic missiles like ballistic missiles are stopped with ABMs. What makes them think a far slower missile cannot be stopped?
With smaller warhead size and the YJ 12 is significantly larger.
The ASAT test was done at a altitude of 865 KM altitude. The s 300 has a max altitude of 40 Km. Only Koreans would be able to pull that off with their fantasy powers.
The SC 19 ABM hit its target fine at a altitude of 250 Km...
Korean missile vastly superior to Chinese missile even though copied from Russian missile and is inferior in all technical aspects-Korean.
Afraid to argue with hard facts my little friend?
Janes is a far more reliable source than any Korean newspaper. As for missiles China has ASAT, midcourse interception ABM, among other things that Russia still does not have. Russia is not the soviet union.
Still heavily copied with Korean acknowledgement as the name Yakhont K suggests.
Also we are comparing a missile that has been in service for twelve years and one to be introduced in 4. Yet still the newer missile is inferior in range and weight efficiency.
Read the article dipwad. It drops to 200 Km when sea skimming. The latest derivative of the Yakhont the Brahmos is 120 Km when sea skimming.
The YJ 12 has a range of 400 Km and the KH 31 a maximum of 110 Km. The Yakhont K is much more of a copy of the yakhont which is something you seem to be...
And a Chinese supersonic missile with a range of 400 KM and confirmed speed of mach 2.5 has been in service for over 12 years now. Oh it also only weighs 850Kg.

let me know when you're done with your yakhont derivative.
This is specifically about the CZ 2C which has one of if not the best launch records of any rocket with any significant amount of launches.
34/35 > 3/7
LOL. Don't project your own issues onto others. China's only ballistic missile from Russia was their straight up copy of the V 2 ballistic missile from Germany 50 years ago. Ever heard of the Sino-Soviet split?
There is a difference in constant failures and occasional ones. This single CZ 2C rocket has had 34 launches with 33 successes and 1 failure. That is more than India's entire space launch history and with a far better record of 97% success rate.
