In a significant achievement, the Indian Navy’s latest indigenous guided missile destroyer, Imphal (Yard 12706), scored a “Bulls Eye” in its maiden BrahMos missile firing at sea. It was the first ever test-firing of an Extended Range BrahMos missile before a ship’s commissioning.
The development underscores the Indian Navy’s unwavering focus on Combat Readiness, Atmanirbhar Bharat’s growing shipbuilding prowess and assured reliability of indigenous weapons and platforms.

BrahMos missile test-fired from warship in Bay of Bengal
Earlier on November 1, the Indian Navy had successfully fired a BrahMos missile from one of its warships in the Bay of Bengal. Owing to operational preparedness, the Indian Navy successfully reached all the parameters of BrahMos during the test-firing. The firing took place in the Bay of Bengal of the Eastern command of the Indian Navy.
It should be noted here that India is also exporting BrahMos missiles to a few countries like the Philippines and others. Notably, the Indian Navy also tested their Extended range capacity.
