The UCAV feature was something that Abdul Kalam proposed. I think the Brahmos 2 is gonna be a normal missile.
The UCAV thing will not be the only thing developed.
A. P. J. Abdul Kalam, an aerospace engineer and former President of India, asked the BrahMos Aerospace to develop an advanced version of the BrahMos cruise missile to maintain India's lead in the field. He stated
“You should develop a hypersonic version of BrahMos which can be reused meaning that the missile should be able to deliver its payload and return to base. This will help in maintaining our leadership in this arena. ”
This would turn Brahmos into an UCAV.
Don't think so, it has to be something in the lines of what APJ proposed and possibly similar to X51.
