NEW DELHI: The BrahMos supersonic cruise missile was successfully test-fired from an integrated test range in Odisha’s coastal Balasore district for the second consecutive day today, validating its strike capability, the defence ministry said.
The missile was launched from a mobile autonomous launcher at 11.45 hours and it successfully flew in its pre-set trajectory “fulfilling its mission objectives”, the ministry said.
“Through this launch the critical indigenous components including fuel management system and other non-metallic airframe components have qualified to form part of the missile,” Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of BrahMos Sudhir Mishra said. (AGENCIES)
