The journey of BrahMos Aerospace started on 12th February 1998 after the landmark signing of an Inter-Government Agreement (IGA) between the India and the Russian Federation. The collaboration was made possible by sharing technological strength of both partners - DRDO and NPOM.
The aim of the partnership was to design, develop, manufacture and market world's leading supersonic cruise missile system - BRAHMOS. The supersonic cruise missile has undergone a number of successful test trials, meeting requirements of its potential users.
