BrahMos delivery to Philippines to start from today
NEW DELHI: Amid heightened tensions between the Philippines and China, India will begin initial deliveries of the 290-km range BrahMos supersonic cruise missiles to Manila on Friday. Two IAF heavy-lift aircraft will ferry the first lot of missiles and launchers, under the $375 million contract for three anti-ship BrahMos coastal batteries inked in Jan 2022, to the Clark International Airport in the Pampanga region of the Philippines, sources said on Thursday.
