BrahMos goes global, eyes next-gen missile by 2028; 1,500-km strike variant on radar

BrahMos Aerospace is set to develop the next-generation BrahMos-NG missile by 2027-28. The company aims to strengthen its supply chain and production capacity to meet increasing demand. Interest from foreign militaries in air-launched versions of BrahMos is growing. A 1,500-km-range variant is also under exploration but remains at a conceptual stage. Recent contracts with the Indian Navy are expected to boost domestic manufacturing and participation from local industries.
