BrahMos Aerospace Weapon Systems

BrahMos Aerospace is the India-Russia joint venture that designs, develops, produces, integrates, and markets the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile family. Its catalog relevance comes from the builder's role in the BrahMos missile system and related launcher variants across ship, land, air, and submarine platforms.

1 weapon systems

BrahMos Aerospace traces its origin to the 12 February 1998 inter-governmental agreement between India and Russia that created the BrahMos joint venture. The company presents itself as the designer, developer, producer, integrator, and marketer of the universal BRAHMOS weapon system.

For this archive, the builder profile ties the catalog's BrahMos entry to the organization that publicly describes itself as responsible for the missile family, the air-launched variant, and the wider ship, land, and submarine launch ecosystem.
