The Indian Navy has announced its interest in acquiring an unspecified number of medium range (at least 120-km) ship-launched anti-ship missiles for new and existing platforms.

Livefist: Indian Navy For New Medium Range Anti-Ship Missile
 
.
The range needed is greater than or equal to 120 KM
 
.
Why not Brahmos blk I? :blink:

Edit: After reading the tender, seems like the weight is an issue. The weight of this new missile has to be below 1000kg.
 
.
^^And BrahMos is 2,000kg

The new tender is for smaller ASCMs to be fitted on vessels like P-16 Godavari-class FFGs and Tarantul-I missile
boats.

Guys what do you think about Naval Strike Missile{NSM} of Norway...

Weight 410 Kg
Range 185 Km

Missile already in use with the IN fits that the bill..

Exocet

The Exocet is built by MBDA, a European missile company. Development began in 1967 by Nord as a ship-launched missile named MM 38. A few years later Aerospatiale and Nord merged. The basic missile body design was based on the Nord AS30 air to ground tactical missile.


Type: Anti-ship missile, Land attack missile

Designer: Aérospatiale-Matra/ MBDA

Range: 70–180 kilometres

Engine: solid propellant engine, turbojet (MM40 Block 3 version)

Platform: Scorpene Submarine, Mirage 2000, Rafale.


3M-54 Klub

3M-54 Klub is a multi-role missile system developed by the Novator Design Bureau(OKB-8). Its NATO reporting name is SS-N-27. Both submarine and surface ship launched versions exist. The system is designed to accept various warheads, allowing its use against surface and subsurface naval combatants along with static land targets. In one variant, the 3M-54E (Sizzler), the final stage makes a supersonic 'sprint' to its target, reducing the time the target's defense systems have to react. The 3M-54E1 subsonic missile is roughly comparable to both the American Tomahawk cruise missile and the ASROC missile but is smaller and has a shorter range.

Variants: KLUB N 3M-54E, KLUB N 3M-54E1, KLUB S 91RE1, KLUB S 91RE2

Type: Anti-ship/Land attack Supersonic cruise missile

Designer: Novator OKB

Range: 300 KM

Engine: Multi-stage Solid-Fuel rocket, Turbojet engine for 3M-54E/E1, -14E, Solid fuel rocket for 91RE1/2

Platform: Sindhughosh Class Submarine, Shivalik class frigate, Talwar class frigate, Tu-22M3

Type: Sea-skimming anti-ship missile

Designer: MBDA/BAe Dynamics

Range: 130 Kms

Engine: Solid-fuel rocket motor.

Platform: Dassault Mirage 2000-2005 Mk 2, Dassault Rafale, Sea Harrier FRS Mk.51, Sea Harrier FRS Mk.51, Jaguar IM, Ilyushin Il-38, Tupolev Tu-142.

Other missiles that fit the bill would in my opinion would be

Naval Strike Missile- Norway

kuch nahi hone wala this one too will go to US kitty ...jai ho sonia mata KI:hitwall:

KLUB can be ignored as it is too heavy.. Gabriel-IV and NSM seem to be good contenders..
 
.
BrahMos sea version must have been a flop for the Indian navy.

Brahmos was originally a ship launched missile. It was so successful that they decided to make land based and air launched versions of it. Now do you realize the inherent stupidity of your post?

Hardly- the Bhramos coss some $1.2 million a peice it clearly isn't practical to use these in every case. If you can get a missile 1/2 as expensive to be used for low value targets.
