The Indian Air Force(IAF) has successfully conducted a test-fire of the live firing of BrahMos supersonic cruise missile from a Su30- MKI fighter aircraft.
The missile hit a decommissioned Indian Navy ship under close coordination with the Indian Navy. The BrahMos can be fired from submarines, ships, fighter jets and land.
In 2016, the government decided to integrate the Brahmos into over 40 Sukhoi fighter jets.
