India to export BrahMos supersonic cruise missile system in next 10 days: DRDO chief
Thursday, 25 January 2024 India is set to initiate the export of ground systems for the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile within the next 10 days, with the missiles themselves expected to be dispatched by March this year, according to DRDO chairman Dr Samir V Kamat on Thursday. The first set of BrahMos missile systems is anticipated to reach the Philippines by the end of March, he told ANI during an interview.
On Friday (Apr 19), the Philippines will receive its first contracted BrahMos missile from India, marking a significant milestone in defence collaboration between the two nations. The journey of this BrahMos missile, renowned as the world's fastest supersonic cruise missile, commences from Nagpur, India, where it is loaded onto an Indian Air Force (IAF) C-17 Globemaster transport aircraft. Accompanied by three civilian freight liners transporting additional parts and support systems, the missile is poised to bolster the defence capabilities of the Philippine Marine Corps' coastal defence regiment.

On Tuesday, the Philippines lodged accusations against China's coast guard, alleging harassment and damage to one of its boats within a disputed section of the South China Sea. The Philippines rejected China's assertion that it had expelled two vessels from the contested shoal. According to the Philippine coast guard, its two vessels remained steadfast at the Scarborough Shoal, a significant focal point in the South China Sea dispute. However, one of the Philippine boats incurred damage due to the deployment of water cannons by two Chinese coast guard ships.

The heads of state from Japan, the Philippines, and the United States have jointly expressed "grave concern" regarding China's conduct in the contested South China Sea. Over recent years, Beijing has intensified its presence in this crucial maritime region, leading to heightened tensions, notably with the Philippines. This nation, among others in Southeast Asia, asserts territorial claims over portions of the sea adjacent to its shores. In response to a recent altercation near Second Thomas Shoal that resulted in injuries to Filipino soldiers and damage to vessels, President Ferdinand Marcos of the Philippines declared Manila's intention to enact countermeasures against China. The leaders of Japan, the Philippines, and the United States expressed shared concerns over the People's Republic of China's (PRC) provocative actions in the South China Sea during the inaugural summit held in Washington, DC. This joint statement comes amid escalating tensions in the region.
