رد: Sukhoi Su-34 Fullback
Brahmos is an air-to-surface supersonic cruise missile able to achieve a top speed of Mach 2.8. The missile is to be a standard armament of the navy vessels and ground forces, and a submarine variant and aircraft variant are also being developed, with the latter being pitched for Su-30MKI fighters.
Comparable to an American JASSM, BrahMos is 3 tons in weight with a 300 kg warhead. Indian Flankers will only be able to carry a single missile.
Guidance system is inertial in the first stages of flight; later the precision is ensured by a radar or GPS/GLONASS guidance.
Range is about 300 km.
Testing is to begin next year.
A BrahMos-M miniaturized version is also being developed, and it is planned to enter service in 2017 at the earliest. The mini version is expected to weigh 1,500 kg and a Su-30 should be able to carry 2-3 of them.
The weapon is also to be integrated with the MiG-29s and Rafales.
