	BrahMos test
		BRAHMOS, the supersonic cruise missile jointly developed by India and Russia, is on course for user trials.
		BrahMos is likely to be inducted into the armed forces in 2004 after some more flights, and user trials.
		BrahMos can be launched from a variety of platforms: land, including silos and mobile launchers; ships and submarines; and aircraft.

	BRAHMOS Anti Ship Missile
		The BrahMos (surface launched) and BrahMos A (air launched) cruise missiles are designed to be able to attack surface targets from a low altitude of 10 meters, at a speed of Mach 2.8, from a range of 290 km.
		BrahMos can be launched either in vertical or inclined position and will cover 360 degrees.
		The high cruise and terminal speed of the BrahMos is posing a significant challenge for the attacked target, as it leaves significantly less time for deployment of countermeasures.

	BrahMos, missiles, Weapon Systems \| India Defence
		To avoid anti-missile defence Brahmos remains at an altitude of 10-15 from launch to impact.
		Brahmos KE lethality is nine times greater than conventional subsonic missile as kinetic energy being proportional to square of velocity.
		This capability is normally obtained through screen matching criteria, but Brahmos employs special algorithm that classifies targets based on their radar cross section as contained in the pre launch data.

	WHAT
		BrahMos is destined to be a "tri-service" missile to be fired from surface ships, submarines, airborne platforms, trucks and land-based silos.
		Thus in case of a salvo launch a flock of BrahMos will be able to allocate and range targets by their importance and choose the attack implementation plan.
		The quest for a Brahmos LACM variant was hinted at in a test at Pokhran during December 2004, the missile being equipped with special image processing software for terminal homing.

		Apart from the mechanical assembly of hooks and straps to house the long and heavy version of the missile, a suitable electronic system or a fire control system linked to the cockpit avionics would have to be designed and engineered, he said.
		Since the BrahMos has a longer range of up to 290 km, unlike other missiles with shorter ranges of 10 to 20 km, the electronic systems for controlling it were more complicated.
		The assembly of the BrahMos would be rigidly uniform and common for the all users of the missile, he said.
