India announced a deal with Brahmos Aerospace Private Limited (BAPL), an Indo-Russian joint venture firm, to procure Next Generation Brahmos Maritime Mobile Coastal Batteries Long Range (NGMMCB LR) and Brahmos missiles. The deal has been finalised&nbsp;at a cost of over ₹1700 Crore&nbsp;or nearly $212 million.

These sea-shore based systems will be equipped with the Brahmos supersonic cruise missiles and are aimed to significantly enhance the multi-directional maritime strike capability of India's naval forces.

This project is poised to generate employment opportunities for more than 90,000 human-days over a period of four years.

Notably, a majority of the equipment and sub-systems for this order will be sourced from Indian industries and indigenous manufacturers. The delivery of these systems is expected to commence from 2027, an official statement said.

Atul Dinkar Rane, CEO and MD, Brahmos Aerospace had recently told WION that the Brahmos missile is now <a href="https://www.wionews.com/india-news/brahmos-missile-is-now-78-indigenous-brahmos-aerospace-ceo-to-wion-575080">78 per cent&nbsp;indigenous</a>, a giant leap from the initial years (2004), when the missile was barely 13 per cent indigenous. After Brahmos Aerospace bagged a $375 million agreement with Philippines, the firm is now in serious talks with South East Asian and West Asian countries, Rane had said.

When asked about the impact of the Ukraine-Russia war on the production of Brahmos missiles, he said that the pandemic and the war had caused some small roadblocks, but there were no major issues. Her also mentioned that Brahmos has a full order book until the year 2031.

A major component of the Brahmos missile is its sophisticated Ramjet engine that is of Russian-origin. India is now working with Russia, with the aim of making that engine indigenously and this is expected to be achieved&nbsp;in about seven years, Rane had added.

Indian Navy to get next-gen Brahmos missiles from 2027; $212 million deal inked

India test-fired a long-range supersonic cruise missile for the second consecutive day, its army said.

The Indian Army said the multi-role missile, named Brahmos, demonstrated its &quot;accuracy of less than one metre&quot;.

&quot;The multi-mission missile hit the land-based targets with the desired precision in both the trials,&quot; an unnamed Army officer told The Times of India.

The Block-III version of Brahmos LACM (land attack cruise missile) &quot;hit the land-based target in &#39;top-attack&#39; mode&quot;, the army said, adding that the launch took place in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, a group of islands on the Bay of Bengal.

The launch of Brahmos for the second consecutive day comes on the heels of heightened tension between India and Pakistan following heavy skirmishing along the Line of Control -- a de facto border separating the two nations.

It is believed that the Indian government has greenlit the deployment of the missile in Arunachal Pradesh, apparently to counter China&#39;s rising influence in the region.

The missile, which travels three faster than the speed of sound, was developed by India and Russia.

The Indian Army, which became the first land force in the world to deploy the Brahmos in 2007, has raised several regiments of this formidable weapon. &nbsp;&nbsp;
