History
Indo-Russian joint venture BrahMos Aerospace (50.5% DRDO, 49.5% NPO Mash) founded in 1998; name from the Brahmaputra and Moskva rivers.
Derived from the Russian P-800 Oniks/Yakhont, in service with the Indian Navy (Talwar/Shivalik frigates, INS Visakhapatnam) since 2005 and on Su-30MKI (BrahMos-A) from 2017.
In January 2022 the Philippines signed a 375 M USD contract for 3 coastal batteries, the first export of the system — deliveries from 2024.
