OPINION: BrahMos missile's debut marks a new era in defense

India Oct 18, 2025

India just rolled out its first batch of BrahMos missiles from Lucknow on October 18, 2025—a big moment for the country's defense scene.
This missile, built with Russia, now covers all of Pakistan in its range, making India's military much stronger and more self-reliant.

BrahMos missile's significance for India

BrahMos proved its worth during Operation Sindoor by hitting Pakistani military sites with precision after the Pahalgam terror attack.
The world is taking notice too—recent deals are worth around ₹4,000 crore.
With Prime Minister Modi praising it under 'Atmanirbhar Bharat,' BrahMos isn't just a weapon; it's a symbol of India stepping up as a leader in defense technology.
