Russia-India developed BrahMos Mach 2.8 missile, BrahMos-NG 350km range, Akash air defence, Nirbhay 1,000km cruise missile, Vikrant carrier. Joint partnerships combine Russian technology with Indian manufacturing. Export sales to Philippines, Vietnam demonstrate partnership success.

India-Russia Summit 2025: 5 deadly weapons co-developed by two nations

BrahMos achieves Mach 2.8 speed, weighs 3,000 kg, ranges 800 km. Ramjet engine maintains sustained supersonic cruise. Composite materials enable performance. Dual-role deployment across Army, Navy, Air Force. Sea-skimming capability defeats naval defences. Advanced Indian weapon system.

7 most advanced features of India’s BrahMos cruise missile

BrahMos is named by combining the Brahmaputra river of India and the Moskva river of Russia, symbolising the joint partnership between the two countries in developing the missile. This name reflects their equal contribution and collaboration in advancing supersonic cruise missile technology.

BrahMos weighs 3,000 kg carrying 200-300 kg warhead while travelling at Mach 2.8 speed.
Advanced composite materials and efficient ramjet engine enable sustained supersonic
cruise maintaining destructive capability across 800 kilometre range. Weight optimised for
maximum strike effectiveness.

How India’s BrahMos cruise missile hits targets at Mach 2.8 with 3,000 kg weight

BrahMos reaches Mach 2.8 to 3.0 through two-stage propulsion - solid booster accelerates missile then separates, liquid ramjet sustains 952 metres per second cruise. Rapid acceleration gives enemy only 12-15 seconds reaction time. Indigenous booster reduces import dependence.
