The Indian Airforce on Thursday successfully test-fired an Extended Range Version of Brahmos Air Launched missile against a ship target from a Sukhoi-30MKI fighter jet.
The missile achieved the desired mission objectives in the Bay of Bengal region.
With this latest test, the IAF has achieved a significant capability boost to carry out precision strikes from the SU-30MKI fighter jets against land and sea targets over very long ranges.
The IAF even posted a video of the test fire on Twitter to inform the world about its latest achievement.
