the Indian Navy declared the successful engagement of a land-based target at an extended range using the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile on January 24 . The test, conducted from a Rajput-class destroyer—either INS Ranvir or INS Ranvijay—featured images released by the Navy showcasing the missile launch. The BrahMos, a preferred offensive missile for the Indian Navy, undergoes frequent testing in various versions. Notably, the January 24 test demonstrated “extended range precision strike capability from combat & mission-ready ships” and coincided with a substantial area warning. A no-fly zone, with a maximum length of approximately 900 km, was in effect between January 24 and 25. This marks the longest-known area warning for a BrahMos missile test, strongly suggesting the missile’s capability to reach ranges of up to 900 km. #military #defense #defence #militaryleak Read more
