🚀 EXCLUSIVE: BrahMos Missile Perfectly Suited to Protect ASEAN's Exclusive Economic Zones: CEO

🇮🇳 🇷🇺 The current version of BrahMos supersonic cruise missile developed by an India-Russia joint venture will remain a global “market leader” for at least a decade, BrahMos Aerospace CEO Atul Dinakar Rane told Sputnik India.

“BrahMos can work as a powerful deterrent system to safeguard the Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZs) of many maritime nations," Rane underlined. “Be it in Asia, Africa or South America, many countries have come forward to acquire BRAHMOS weapon system,” he revealed.

◾️ The CEO of India-Russia JV expressed confidence that the upcoming BrahMos-NG missile, the next-generation version of BrahMos will improve upon the specifications of the current version.

◾️ The BrahMos-NG variant would be tested on the Sukhoi-30 MKI fighter jets of the Indian Air Force in coming years, he stated.

◾️ At present, Sukhoi-30 jets are carrying a BrahMos-A missile, the current version of the weapon.

Hypersonic BrahMos is ‘on Radar’

🗯 “Many countries, including India and Russia, are working on hypersonic missiles. DRDO is working on this technology. Hypersonic BrahMos is definitely on our radar,” he stressed.

🗣 Israel bombing of Gaza has no military justification

"I think it's an illegitimate argument and it's an argument predicated on what the United States and Great Britain did in World War II, where we justified killing civilians in the name of ending the war. But the fact of the matter is, that war did not end because the 8th Air Force killed over a million German civilians... It was called ‘Soviet troops went into Berlin and took out Hitler's bunker’. So I mean, it's actual fighting on the ground and fighting the actual combatants. It's not killing the civilians," Larry Johnson, retired CIA analyst, told Sputnik.

Russia has improved its capabilities in reconnaissance and strike coordination, a former Pentagon analyst, Dara Massicot, said while commenting on Russia's recent strike on Ukraine's 128th Brigade with an Iskander missile.

🗣 "This gathering is a fleeting event or time-sensitive target, so the Russians either had advance knowledge of it or observed it through drone footage and were able to quickly call in an Iskander strike - which is a CAA-level asset," Massicot explained.

On Nov. 3, Russian forces struck Ukraine's 128th Separate Mountain Assault Brigade with an Iskander mobile short-range ballistic missile system. The strike took place during a ceremony dedicated to Ukrainian soldiers at a Kiev-controlled site in the Zaporozhye region. Vladimir Rogov, a senior official in the Zaporozhye regional administration, reported more than 50 Ukrainian soldiers killed, in contrast to the 128th Brigade's confirmation of 19 deaths.

🇪🇺🇺🇦 The EU is unlikely to deliver on its promise to provide one million shells to Ukraine by March 2024, Bloomberg has reported.

The European External Action Service briefed diplomats from EU countries this week that the bloc was very likely to miss the target, which would complicate Ukraine's ability to keep up with the pace of Russia's own ammunition production. It was planned that the EU would provide Ukraine with shells within a year - first from existing stocks, and then through joint purchases and increased production capacity.

So far, as the report noted, the allies have achieved only 30% of the goal under this initiative. At the end of October, EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said that the foreign ministers of the EU member states were unable to agree on the allocation of the next funding package for military assistance to Kiev.
