India in R6,000-crore JV with Russia for BrahMos’ air version

[SEAL]

Brahmos-1 has a range of 500 km and sustains mach 3 . So it is a pretty big one . MKI can carry only one.

Brahmos-3 has a range of 300 km and has same speed . It can be carried by any MCA in IAF and MKI can carry 3.

500km? you have no idea what you talking about read first post carefully.
Bottom line is PAF have better missile now with the speed of 5.5 mach while India is gonna spend another 1.1Bil$ to get this tech lol

 

[Sergi]

$1.1 Billion damn too much expensive considering the fact India already have Brahmos technology.
Russia ne phr haath saaf kia ha.

Did you read the article ???

India has set up another manufacturing and system integration plant in Thiruvananthapuram to boost production of the missiles.
Didn't this thing cost ^^^

And I hope you don't think that 1.1 Billion is price of 200 missiles only

Yes India have Brahmos tech. But IAF version will have to be miniaturised from existing platform. So it's not the same thing. And nobody will ever knew the capabilities of these missile unless and until they are used on something

In house production,that is a definite plus.
But by the time Brahmos mini will be ready,it wont have any export potential.

And I really don't think India was or is in arms export market but who knows ??? There are some potential operators who might be interested in both versions of Brahmos. ( read Sukoi operators and which might have to fight a big navy )

And beside I house production , a capable infrastructure is made. That's the big point here. Forget Brahmos-2/3. Just imagine whenever India become confidant of its own missile propulsion system the unnecessary or imaginary cap of 300Km will be removed and production can be started in same factory for all new missile.

Mach 5.5, and already integeated into PAF.
Like i said, read JF-17 thread, dont want to repeat all that.

You guys have a Mach 5.5 cruise missile?

Who said we are looking for exporting the missle?

@Safriz
the missile CM-400 AKG ur r talking here has serious credibility issues....

1. China currently no experince of even supersonic cruise missiles let alone hypersonic cruise missile

2. Only C-802/805 a subsonic cruise missile is currently available in Chinese inventory.

3. There is no official confrimation about its specs otherthan youtube n blogs

4. Even Russia which has years of experience of Supersonic missiles like P-800 or Brahmos, is still struggling to make Hypersonic Brahmos 2 n the Chinese came up with CM-400 out of thin air

5. Plz Don't give me BS that Chinese missile tech is more advance than Russia else China won't be cribbing for S-400 from Russia...

6. Even Brahmos is a missile supersonic cruise missile with 290 Km range n even a heavy fighter like MKI has to undergo upgradation to lift it that too only 1 at a time n u taking about JF-17 armed with not 1 but 2 HYPERSONIC MACH 5.5 SPEED cruise missles under its bealt

Just a one frndly advise better speed up ur work on air launched Babur if u can rather than making flying castles of Hypersonic CM-400...

[Yogi]

Where does it says it flys at 5.5 Mach n FC-1 aka JF-17 can carry 2 missiles under its bealt...

 

[Yogi]

n the most funny part is China is busy developing missiles for a plane like FC-1 which it itself still not sure if it will induct it or not but not for its premium fighters like J-16/11, J10B, etc as the report(pic) talks about only FC1 n didn't even care to mention about others...

That was my question! Nowhere does it say that this missile can fly at Mach 5.5. I wonder if it's even supersonic! Where do these guys get their gen from? Ah! I know already.....Zaid Hamid zindabad!!

If you read the missiles specs,it mentions a minimum and a maximum range,
What does that mean? Why would a missile have a 'munimum range' ?

If you know the answer if this,we may go on to further explainations,otherwise no point in arguing with any if you.
