BRAHMOS SUPERSONIC CRUISE
MISSILE SUCCESSFULLY TESTED FOR FIRST TIME
ഇന്ത്യയ്ക്ക് ചരിത്ര നേട്ടം; ബ്രഹ്മോസ്
വിജയകരമായി പരീക്ഷിച്ചു
Today, 22nd November,2017,the Defense
Ministry has been successfully tested BrahMos, the world's fastest supersonic
cruise missile from a Sukhoi-30MKI fighter of the Indian Air Force (IAF), The launch from the aircraft was smooth and
the missile followed the desired trajectory before directly hitting the ship
target. The missile was fired by the test crew comprising Wg Cdr Prashant Nair
and Wg Cdr KP Kiran Kumar. The chase aircraft was flown by Sqn Ldr Angad Pratap
and Gp Capt Badrish N Athreya.
The air launched BrahMos missile is a 2.5 ton supersonic air to
surface cruise missile with ranges of more than 400 kms. The IAF is the first
Air Force in the world to have successfully fired an air launched 2.8 Mach
surface attack missile of this category. The integration on the aircraft was
very complex involving mechanical, electrical and software modifications on
aircraft. The IAF was totally involved in the activity from its inception. The
software development of the aircraft was undertaken by the IAF engineers while
the HAL carried out mechanical and electrical modifications on aircraft. One of
the major challenges overcome by scientists of RCI, DRDO in the missile
development was optimization of Transfer Alignment of the inertial sensors of
the missile.
The rich experience of the IAF flight test crew ensured that the
integration was smooth. The dedicated and synergetic efforts of the IAF, DRDO,
BAPL and HAL have proven the capability of the nation to undertake such complex
integrations on its own.The firing could be successfully undertaken with
dedicated support from Indian Navy by way of ensuring availability of the
target and a large number of monitoring ships to ensure range safety clearance.The
BrahMos missile provides Indian Air Force a much desired capability to strike
from large stand-off ranges on any target be in sea or land with pinpoint
accuracy by day or night and in all weather conditions. The capability of the
missile coupled with the superlative performance of the Su-30 aircraft gives
the IAF a strategic reach and allows it to dominate the ocean and the battle
fields.
