      Solution

      Two months after the extended-range BrahMos missile was tested from a naval ship, the missile was air-launched from a Su-30 MKI aircraft. BrahMos is an indigenously manufactured supersonic cruise missile, jointly developed with Russia. The range of BrahMos was earlier around 290 km, which, with the new version, has reached around 350 km. The air launch comes just over two months after the extended-range missile was fired from the Navy’s stealth destroyer, INS Chennai, on March 5. The missile had hit its intended target “with pinpoint accuracy after traversing an extended range trajectory and performing complex manoeuvres” and it established the Navy’s ability “to strike even deeper and influence land operations further away from sea, when and where required.”
