According to news agency ANI, India successfully test-fired a new version of the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile off the coast of Odisha in Balasore on Thursday. According to ANI, the missile was equipped with new technological developments that had been successfully proven by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO).

The DRDO successfully test-fired a naval variant of the BrahMos from an Indian Navy stealth guided-missile destroyer just over a week ago, on January 11.

The missile hit the designated target “precisely,” according to the DRDO.

Rajnath Singh, the Union defence minister, congratulated DRDO officials on the successful launch, saying it “reconfirmed the robustness of the Indian Navy’s mission readiness.”

BrahMos is a joint venture between the DRDO and Russia’s NPO Mashinostroyeniya that resulted in the formation of Brahmos Aerospace. The missile gets its name from two rivers: India’s Brahmaputra and Russia’s Moskva.

The supersonic cruise missile is produced by BrahMos Aerospace, a joint venture between India and Russia. It can be launched from submarines, ships, aircraft, or land platforms.

The BrahMos missile travels at 2.8 Mach, or nearly three times the speed of sound.

India has already deployed a significant number of the original BrahMos missiles, as well as other key assets, in a number of strategic locations.
