Here you are mixing two things togather which are complements (rather prerequsitis to be precise), If detection of mere crusie missile is near impossible (as you put it) then why would there be efforts to add radar evasion techniques like Terrain Hugging and Design shaping? Brahmos being a supersonic missile has two critical weaknesses 1) it can not use tarrain hugging thus flying at higher altitude exposes it to greater radar coverage (both air and ground based) and secondly being supersonic it looses manuverbility. The Sam systems of this age have Mach 3-4 capability.
it flies below 10 meters BrahMos is primarily designed for the anti ship role as navy needed to replace older sea hawk missiles i dont even know how BrahMos got involved into the topic..... but its supersonic speed makes it detectable but nearly impossible to intercept because 1) flies at low altitude and 2) its speed of mach 2.8 to 3.0
you clearly do not know of BrahMos capability read up on it then post on it please. but its design is meant to sink surface combatants at sea like destroyers and frigates.
Nirbhay will be our land attack terrain hugging stealth cruise missile which will be designed to be undetectable and impossible to intercept we have another cruise missile called the LRCM which will be a long range supersonic cruise missile
anyways i'm done talking about BrahMos that is a different topic for a different thread discuss how you guys will be able to defeat our ABM
