my Mymy....... I didn't know Brahmos can be launched from under water... Is it true.. The Video just showed..
India successfully launches BRAHMOS missile from underwater :: BrahMos.com
In a world's first, India test fires BrahMos missile from underwater platform - Indian Express

Brahmos has been tested succesfully from an underwater platform, and will equip all of India's next generation of submarines. As far as I know, India is the only country to have a supersonic cruise missile that can be launched from undersea. (I could be wrong on that though.)
 
Can you please change your profile pic? Thanks!
He is a congress supporter, so why should he change that pic? Freedom of expression, and all that.
 
F..k..accuracy is just mind blowing.
 
That was F..kinfg Hell. It just converts to one thing, U see a Indian Navy coming down ur way firing in anger, u just have under two mins to call up ur family to say u love them and ur bank passwords. Donn even bother barking orders for counter-measures.
 
brahmos precision is very accurate.... 8-) :enjoy:
 
Thanks dost. Best thing is that all of our frigates and destroyers(total 23) are now equipped with these anti-ship cruise missiles.

It's just superb ...


Is there anyway India can take it further ...and independently develop long range version of Brahmos

understand the limitation on Russia due to MTCR ...but India already possesses knowhow ....

is there anything in our contract with Russians that prevents us this developing into longer range ...

I mean is it technologically feasible ... ? that's one question

and whether it's technically possible ... ? that another query

I am sure Indian military would be very very happy to have long range version ....of Brahmos !


There had been news that DRDO is working on Long Range Cruise Missile with range of 500-600 km based on Brahmos .....

Haven't hear of anything about it recently .....


Let me search the article ...

well I found answers to my own queries after lil bit on internet search

I mean is it technologically feasible ... ? that's one question

Yes ...it's technologically possible ....and apparently is already being done


and whether it's technically possible ... ? that another query

apparently India has managed to get around MTCR constrains ... Russia may not have objections to India taking Brahmos bit forwards and longer ...

MOSCOW, October 9 (RIA Novosti)
India has uprated its BrahMos supersonic cruise missiles by installing the advanced satellite navigation systems from Russia's Kh-555 and Kh-101 strategic long-range cruise missiles, adding GPS-GLONASS technology to the existing doppler-inertial platform, Izvestia reported on Tuesday quoting sources in the military-industrial complex.
The integration of the navigation systems from Kh-555 will turn BrahMos, a supersonic cruise missile, into a "super-rocket" with almost a sub-strategic capability above its normal tactical range, capable of hitting targets over 180-300 miles (300-500 km), from sea, land and air launchers, and capable of being armed with a nuclear warhead, the source said.
The installation of the advanced navigation system is optimised for the new air-launched version of BrahMos, which will be carried by India's Russian-built Sukhoi Su-30MKI strike fighters. India plans to deploy over 200 of the advanced aircraft by 2020.
Analysts say the addition of satellite-based navigation systems will improve the weapon's accuracy.
“Conventional Doppler INS has an inherent drift, so the longer the range of the weapon, the larger the relative error," said Douglas Barrie, air warfare analyst at the London-based International Institute for Strategic Studies. "Introducing satellite navigation improves the missile’s positional accuracy. From an investment stand-point it also makes sense to re-use sub-systems that have already been developed.”
Former Royal Navy Weapons Engineering officer Hugh Price agreed. "Satellite navigation means the missile will now be accurate to within a few meters," he said.
The combination of air-launched BrahMos with the Su-30 will give India a long-range strike capability similar to Russia's Tu-95MS and Tu-160 strategic bombers, said aviation analyst and editor of Vzlet magazine Vladimir Sherbakov.

The Russian-Indian BrahMos supersonic cruise missile

"This missile is an important element in the military power of the Indian armed forces and our Indian partners have placed a lot of faith in it," he said.
India's main potential adversary, Pakistan, does not have modern air defenses capable of engaging targets outside BrahMos range, a source in Russia's High Command told the paper.
The Indian Navy carried out a successful test-firing of the sea-launched variant of the weapon on October 7 from the frigate INS Teg off the coast of Goa, the New Indian Express reported.
BrahMos can reach a speed of Mach 2.8 at levels as low as 30 feet (10 m) or fly high-profile diving attacks. The missile was jointly developed by Russia and India, based on the NPO Mashinostroyenie 3M55 Onyx (NATO SS-N-26).
 
Russians still make some good weapons..eh

Well no doubt you found what you asked for but I will also add about Our fully Indigenous long range super sonic(600 KM, Mach 3.2) cruise missile program which is planned in long run. Check out this...
