The 5 September 2010 test of BrahMos created a world record for being the first cruise missile to be tested at supersonic speeds in a steep-dive mode. The missile was test-fired from the integrated test range launching complex-3 (LC-3) at Chandipur around 11.35&nbsp;am. With this launch, the Indian army's requirement for land attacks with Block-II advanced seeker software with target discriminating capabilities was met.

====BrahMos-A====
The BrahMos-A is a modified air-launched variant of the missile with a range of 500&nbsp;km which can be launched from a [[Sukhoi Su-30MKI]] as a [[standoff weapon]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://pib.nic.in/newsite/PrintRelease.aspx?relid=173744|title=Successful firing of Brahmos Air Launched Missile from Su-30 MKI Aircraft|website=pib.nic.in|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171201032238/http://pib.nic.in/newsite/PrintRelease.aspx?relid=173744|archive-date=1 December 2017|url-status=dead|access-date=22 November 2017}}</ref> To reduce the missile's weight to 2.55 tons, many modifications were made like using a smaller booster, adding fins for airborne stability after launch, and relocating the connector.

The missile was also planned to arm the [[Indian Navy]]'s [[Ilyushin Il-38]] and [[Tupolev Tu-142]] maritime patrol and anti-submarine aircraft with 6 missiles per aircraft, but this could not be made possible due to insufficient ground clearance of the IL-38, high cost of modifying the Tu-142 and the questionable benefits of modifying an aging fleet.<ref name=aw4m13 /><ref>{{cite web |url=http://rusnavy.com/news/othernavies/index.php?ELEMENT_ID=10007 |title=Upgraded ASW aircraft Tu-142ME was delivered to the Indian Navy |publisher=Rusnavy.com |access-date=31 August 2010 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100918045806/http://rusnavy.com/news/othernavies/index.php?ELEMENT_ID=10007 |archive-date=18 September 2010}}</ref>

The purchase of over 200 air-launched BrahMos supersonic cruise missiles for the IAF was cleared by the [[Cabinet Committee on Security]] (CCS) on 19 October 2012, at the cost of {{INRConvert|6000|c|lk=on|year=2012|0}}. This would include funds for the integration and testing of the BrahMos on Su-30MKI of the IAF. As per this plan, the first test of the air-launched version of the missile was to be conducted by December 2012.

==Specifications==
[[File:INS Trikand (F51)-image54.jpg|thumb|Vertical Launch System for BrahMos on [[INS Trikand|INS ''Trikand'']]]]
BrahMos has the capability of attacking surface targets by flying as low as five metres in altitude and the maximum altitude it can fly is 15,000 metres. It has a diameter of 70&nbsp;cm and a wingspan of 1.7&nbsp;m.{{citation needed|date=February 2023}} It can gain a speed of Mach 3.5, and has a maximum range of 650&nbsp;km.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Brahmos Displays Its 450-Km Reach |url=https://www.magzter.com/stories/News/Geopolitics/Brahmos-Displays-Its-450-Km-Reach |access-date=23 May 2022 |website=www.magzter.com |language=en}}</ref> The ship-launched and land-based missiles can carry a 200&nbsp;kg [[warhead]], whereas the aircraft-launched variant (BrahMos A) can carry a 300&nbsp;kg warhead. It has a two-stage propulsion system, with a solid-propellant rocket for initial acceleration and a liquid-fuelled [[ramjet]] responsible for sustained supersonic cruise. Air-breathing [[ramjet]] propulsion is much more fuel-efficient than rocket propulsion, giving the BrahMos a longer range than a pure rocket-powered missile would achieve.<ref name="pru20a" /> The propulsion systems of BrahMos is supplied by Solar Defence and Aerospace Limited (SDAL), Nagpur.<ref>{{Cite news |date=2025-06-13 |title=Navy chief docks in Nagpur to inspect defence manufacturing units |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/nagpur/navy-chief-docks-in-nagpur-to-inspect-defence-manufacturing-units/articleshow/121811506.cms |access-date=2025-06-13 |work=The Times of India |issn=0971-8257}}</ref>

The high speed of the BrahMos likely gives it better target-penetration characteristics than lighter subsonic cruise-missiles, such as [[BGM-109 Tomahawk|Tomahawk]]. Being twice as heavy and almost four times as fast as Tomahawk, the BrahMos has more than 32 times the on-cruise [[kinetic energy]] of a Tomahawk missile, although it carries only 3/5 the payload and a fraction of the range, which suggests that the missile was designed with a different tactical role. Its Mach 2.8 speed means that it cannot be intercepted by some existing [[Missile Defense System|missile defence systems]] and its precision makes it lethal to water targets.<ref name="pru20a">{{cite news|title=India places two-billion-dollar order for Russian missiles|url=http://english.pravda.ru/russia/economics/20-08-2008/106153-russian_missiles-0/|access-date=7 February 2013|newspaper=Pravda|date=20 August 2008|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130508040155/http://english.pravda.ru/russia/economics/20-08-2008/106153-russian_missiles-0/|archive-date=8 May 2013}}</ref>

Although BrahMos was primarily an [[anti-ship missile]], the BrahMos Block III can also engage land-based targets. It can be launched either in a vertical or inclined position and is capable of covering targets over a 360-degree horizon. The BrahMos missile has an identical configuration for land, sea, and sub-sea platforms.<ref name="pru20a" /><ref name="id7fml">{{cite web|title=More Lethal Indian Army As BrahMos Cruise Missile Inducted Today|url=http://www.india-defence.com/reports-3341|publisher=India-Defence|access-date=7 February 2013|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130728081719/http://www.india-defence.com/reports-3341|archive-date=28 July 2013}}</ref> The air-launched version has a smaller booster and additional tail fins for added stability during launch.

=== BrahMos-NG ===
[[File:Brahmos and Brahmos-M size comparison.JPG|thumb|Size comparison between BrahMos and the planned BrahMos-M/BrahMos-NG.]]

'''BrahMos-NG''' (Next Generation) or '''BrahMos-MA''' is a shortened version based on the existing BrahMos system.

==== Indian Army ====

===== First regiment =====
On 21 June 2007, the Indian Army raised its first BrahMos regiment, designated [[861 Missile Regiment (India)|861 Missile Regiment]],<ref name="idefence" /> equipped with Block I variant. Before the induction, four tests were conducted successfully including two by Army personnel. The induction took place one year before scheduled delivery in July 2008. Two mobile launchers and mobile command post was delivered.<ref>{{Cite news |date=2007-06-21 |title=BrahMos cruise missile inducted into Army |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/brahmos-cruise-missile-inducted-into-army/articleshow/2139031.cms |access-date=2025-01-27 |work=The Times of India |issn=0971-8257}}</ref> The first regiment with five mobile launcher cost $83 million to set up.<ref name="bs27j10">{{cite news|title=Indian Army Demands More Missile Regiments|url=http://brahmos.com/newscenter.php?newsid=115|access-date=7 July 2013|newspaper=Brahmos|date=27 January 2010|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130907161508/http://brahmos.com/newscenter.php?newsid=115|archive-date=7 September 2013}}</ref>

===== Second regiment =====
By 2009, after multiple tests, Block II variant of the missile with advanced seeker was ready for induction. This will be followed by raising of two regiments of Block II BrahMos Weapon System. Around 260 missiles would be bought. The deal would cost over {{INRConvert|8000|c|lk=on|year=2009}}.<ref>{{cite news |last=Dutta |first=Sujan |date=5 April 2009 |title=Army on board, navy at sea |url=http://www.telegraphindia.com/1090405/jsp/frontpage/story_10776641.jsp |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110526054003/http://www.telegraphindia.com/1090405/jsp/frontpage/story_10776641.jsp |archive-date=26 May 2011 |access-date=31 August 2010 |work=The Telegraph (India) |location=Calcutta, India}}</ref>

On 9 November 2011, the second regiment equipped with BrahMos Block II was officially commissioned with 16 weapon systems. The delivery was completed ahead of schedule. Reports also confirmed that two more regiments were also planned including one equipped with Block III variant.<ref>{{Cite news |date=2011-11-09 |title=Second regiment of BrahMos cruise missiles commissioned |url=https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/politics-and-nation/second-regiment-of-brahmos-cruise-missiles-commissioned/articleshow/10669886.cms?from=mdr |access-date=2025-03-21 |work=The Economic Times |issn=0013-0389}}</ref>

On 4 March 2012, the Army test fired a BrahMos missile at the [[Pokhran#Pokhran Test Range|Pokhran Field Firing Range]]. Following this, the second regiment of BrahMos, meant for desert warfare, was operationalised. The third regiment was already on order and would be inducted in [[Arunachal Pradesh]]. Each of the two new regiments would have 65 missiles, five Mobile Autonomous Launchers and two mobile command post.<ref name="hin" /> The development was confirmed by the then [[Indian defense minister|Indian Defence Minister]] [[A. K. Antony]] in a written reply in the [[Parliament of India|Parliament]].<ref>{{Cite news |date=2012-03-21 |title=BrahMos missile fully operational with two Army regiments: Govt |url=https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/brahmos-missile-fully-operational-with-two-army-regiments-govt/articleshow/12356888.cms?from=mdr |access-date=2025-01-26 |work=The Economic Times |issn=0013-0389}}</ref>

===== Third regiment =====
In 2015, Indian Army activated the third regiment of BrahMos Block II missiles, designated [[344 Missile Regiment (India)|344 Missile Regiment]]. The regiment which took part in the [[Republic Day Parade]] in 2025 was the latest BrahMos regiment.<ref name=":18" />

===== Fourth regiment =====
On 3 August 2016, it was reported that the [[Cabinet Committee on Security]] (CCS) cleared a fourth regiment for the "steep-dive" (Block 3) variant of the BrahMos missile at a cost of {{INRConvert|4300|c|lk=on|year=2016}}.

==== Vietnam ====
Vietnam was included in the "definite list of countries" which have expressed interest in BrahMos as per a report in 2021.<ref name=":16" />

On 22 December 2024, it was reported that a deal worth $700 million for the sale of BrahMos to Vietnam is to be signed within few months. The initial techno-commercial had been exchanged, while the draft agreement (which includes the final deal amount, delivery timeline, payment terms, and other details from the manufacturer) is awaited. The orders are expected from both [[Vietnamese Army]] and [[Vietnamese Navy]]. The deal can make Vietnam the second country to purchase the missile system.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-12-22 |title=Exclusive: Vietnam, India close to finalising BrahMos deal |url=https://www.wionews.com/world/exclusive-vietnam-india-close-to-finalising-brahmos-deal-786028 |access-date=2024-12-23 |website=WION |language=en-us}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2024-12-24 |title=India-Vietnam $700M BrahMos deal boosts defence exports: All about it |url=https://www.indiatoday.in/education-today/gk-current-affairs/story/india-vietnam-700m-brahmos-deal-defence-exports-2654648-2024-12-24 |access-date=2024-12-25 |website=India Today |language=en}}</ref>

Multiple reports suggest that the deal will be announced on 25–26 January 2025 during [[Indonesian President]] Prabowo Subianto visit to India as the [[List of chief guests at Delhi Republic Day parade|Republic Day chief guest]] since India, Russia and Indonesia has trilaterally  agreed upon the price of the deal. The final deal could take some time as formal procedures are due.

One of the major issues regarding sales of the missile is that the nations looking to buy may have stressful relations with allies and trading partners of Russia. China is one of the main nations that has objections about its neighbours getting these missiles for their navies. It views the selling of these missiles as an act of belligerence and interference in the disputed territories like the [[Territorial disputes in the South China Sea|South China Sea]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.rbth.com/economics/2014/11/10/brahmos_missile_exports_a_challenging_proposition_39615|title=BrahMos missile exports a challenging proposition|website=Russia Beyond|date=10 November 2014|access-date=11 November 2014|archive-date=7 August 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200807154728/https://www.rbth.com/economics/2014/11/10/brahmos_missile_exports_a_challenging_proposition_39615|url-status=live}}</ref> China's concerns were believed to be a direct cause behind the unsuccessful sale of BrahMos to Vietnam even though Vietnam has previously acquired and commissioned the Russian [[K-300P Bastion-P|Bastion-P coastal defence systems]] which use the largely-equivalent [[P-800 Oniks|Yakhont anti-ship missile]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=BrahMos to Vietnam: Why is China bellyaching? |url=https://sps-aviation.com/experts-speak/?id=99&h=BrahMos-to-Vietnam-Why-is-China-bellyaching |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.today/20240419122258/https://www.sps-aviation.com/experts-speak/?id=99&h=BrahMos-to-Vietnam-Why-is-China-bellyaching |archive-date=19 April 2024 |access-date=20 December 2022 |website=SP's Aviation}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=17 August 2016 |title=Vietnam People's Navy deploys Bastion-P Mobile Coastal Defense Systems in drills |url=https://www.navyrecognition.com/index.php/naval-news/naval-news-archive/2016/august-2016-navy-naval-forces-defense-industry-technology-maritime-security-global-news/4277-vietnam-peoples-navy-deploys-bastion-p-mobile-coastal-defense-systems-in-drills.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.today/20240419122543/https://www.navyrecognition.com/index.php/naval-news/naval-news-archive/2016/august-2016-navy-naval-forces-defense-industry-technology-maritime-security-global-news/4277-vietnam-peoples-navy-deploys-bastion-p-mobile-coastal-defense-systems-in-drills.html |archive-date=19 April 2024 |access-date=20 December 2022 |website=Navy Recognition |language=en-gb}}</ref>
