India to arm Sukhoi fighters with BrahMos cruise missiles
India is set to test-fire supersonic cruise missile BrahMos from a Sukhoi-30MKI fighter jet in a bid to improve its ability to carry out deep surgical strikes. Firing the supersonic cruise missile from a frontline fighter jet would be a first for India. Reportedly, 40 Sukhoi fighter jets will be armed with the missiles if the tests are successful.
