The Army version of the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile was tested successfully in the Pokharan field firing range this morning. A previous test of the same variant failed on January 21 as a result of a software glitch.Software glitches resolved, BrahMos tested successfully in Pokharan
The Army version of the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile was tested successfully in the Pokharan field firing range this morning. A previous test of the same variant failed on January 21 as a result of a software glitch.
I am just speculating but is it possible that the upgraded Brahmos could be using the same DRDO developed KA band seeker as in AAD/PAD. It seems to have the right range, resolution and perhaps size.
to prasun
people like prasun k sengupta mislead people and most of time he is daydreaming he said
the cost of procuring the aircraft carrier comes to about US$2.1 billion, which is what any other foreign shipyard like Fincantieri or Navantia would charge. But having said that, non-Russian shipyards would have delivered such an aircraft carrier within four years of contract signature

but
french navantia charging australia $ 8 billion for building three aegis destroyers read this—–>
world class ships at indian prices
the three 6,250-tonne destroyers, fitted with the hot-selling Aegis radar and fire control system, will set Australia back by Rs 32,000 crore (US $8 billion). At about Rs 11,000 crore per destroyer, that is almost three times the cost India is paying for its Kolkata-class destroyers

so whats wrong with gorshkov and mig29k and helicopters in 2.9 billion US dollars
what else can be cheaper than this
very unfair on yer part shiv to moderate my comments. I keep popularising yer blog to all bloggers i know & u removed mine just coz it carried a link to my own blog. I thought it is just fair to put it on similar blogs so that like minded bloggers can have more fodder. neways that's yer personal choice.
YES!! WE HAVE DONE IT!!!
ANY MORE QUESTIONS ON OUR CAPABILITIES, ALL YOU “GENIUSES”???
@smarterOne..
Don’t whine..its disgusting.. embarrassing..
if its any good..a better mousetrap..
ppl will come..
Brahmos has a range of 125 km. when it runs in between 10-15m. altitude.So it is inferior than chinese missile in terms of range
I shall wait for a comment from the Army chief or an army spokesperson. After what happened in the last test, where Mr. Pillai claimed success when the test was a failure, I am not sure i want to trust them this time. Let Gen. Deepak Kapoor come out with a statement.
I am not disputing that the test was successful, just am vary due to the events in the recent past
Mayuresh, and they are trustworthy? LOL. I would rather trust the actual makers.
