Indonesia Explores Brahmos Technology Collaboration with India.
Indonesia is exploring cooperation with India on defense technology, including on the Brahmos cruise missile.
Brahmos The Brahmos is a joint development of Russia’s NPO Mashinostroyenia and India’s Defence Research and Development Organization. A joint venture of the two state firms, BrahMos Aerospace, produces the weapon. The missile is based on Russia’s P-800 Oniks family of cruise missiles, featuring the world’s fastest speed of Mach 3.
It can be launched from air, sea, and land and strike targets 290 to 500 kilometers (180-311 miles) away, depending on the platform.
The land and sea-based versions weigh around 3,000 kilograms (6,614 pounds), with a payload of 300 kilograms (661 pounds). The air-launched variant is lighter by around 500 kilograms (1,102 pounds).
Additional features of the missile include an inertial navigation system (INS) for naval targets and a blend of INS and GPS for ground targets.
For terminal guidance, it relies on an active/passive radar system.
