BrahMos unprecedented new power
Updated at: 2:54 PM, 05/04/2012
Cruise missiles will be 5-7 times faster than the speed of sound, it is revealed to Mr. Praveen Pathak on collaborative projects to develop new missiles between Russia and India.
(DVO) at arms exhibition Defexpo last month 30/3, Mr. Praveen Pathak, head of development programs BrahMos cruise missile, said: "The new weapon will be capable of flying at cruise speed" beyond sound "(Hypersonic) Mach 5 - Mach 7, he said.
"We wanted to create a weapon that would not significantly different from the BrahMos missile is manufactured in weight and size, to be able to use the launchers were deployed on board and or the mobile launchers. The choice will not take too much work to convert such systems to transcend negative, "Mr. Pathak said. "Russia has had long experience in developing high-speed weapons and supersonic jet engines, this is a Russian program - India can accomplish, "Mr. Pathak said Douglas Barrie, an analyst at the Institute for International Strategic Studies based in London, England. "Set design of a hypersonic missile will likely genuine "new" missile 3M55 Onyx / BrahMos are using today. The missile uses new jet engines to sustain supersonic flight speed throughout its journey, "Mr Pathak said.
Previously, development agencies and research DRDO Defence of India had introduced experimental model beyond sound technologies in an air show. NPO Mashinostroeniye, partner of India in BrahMos program, has developed a super missile 3M25 Meteorit supersonic name, but they never once exhibited any missiles. same time, some claim that Russia and India, two countries will cooperate to develop a new variant of the supersonic cruise missile BrahMos is capable attack aircraft. But these two claims can not be a by development projects against the carrier variant of the BrahMos supersonic only Mach 2.5 to 2.9. India will conduct fire First Test for variant cruise missiles launched BrahMos supersonic Su-30MKI aircraft from their late 2012 "We hope the end of 2012 will conduct the first test launch from an aircraft. It will be a launch from the air, "he said.
The variation of integrated missile air-launched BrahMos for Su-30MKI aircraft are being made ​​for the Indian Air Force. Which had a few Su-30MKI aircraft configuration is changed to bring the BrahMos missile. Indian Air Force is fully ready to receive the BrahMos missile launchers (land variant - to - earth) to equip two missile battalions. These missiles will be deployed at the base near the Indian border to attack the air base, air defense units and the enemy's radar, he said Pathak.
In March / 2012, India successfully test-fired a supersonic cruise missile BrahMos (land variant - for - land, improvements to the Block III). "The missile has a range air reaches maximum, 290 km. In the final stage dive flew down to lower altitudes. This is a requirement of the ground forces," he said, an assault-style " dive "is necessary for the objectives in hilly terrain.
BrahMos, is developed from the type of naval cruise missiles 3M55 Yakhont by the Russian company NPO Mashinostroeniye, is a most capable weapon in the same class missiles, missiles with a range up to 290 km, the speed Maximum Mach 2.8 supersonic, equipped with up to 250 kg warhead, with cross section of low radar reflection and itinerary can change the attack, including the lowest altitude of 10 m and can fly up to 14,000 m. The missile firing activities on forgotten principle. Variations ground-launched BrahMos weight of up to 3 tons.

Like I said, I can't wait to see Brahmos arrives to Viet Nam. Keep it great works my Indian friends.
