World's first manoeuvrable supersonic cruise missile ..

Brahmos Aerospace, a joint collaboration between India and Russia, yesterday successfully fired the vertical launch version ( possible to be used in full 360 deg) of the world's first manoeuvrable supersonic ( at mach 2.8) cruise missile (air breathing, within the atmosphere..) meeting all its launch parameters successfully. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/BrahMos-cruise-missile-test-fired-successfully/articleshow/5709080.cms The world is sitting back and taking note ? When hypersonic ( at mach 7 - 8 ) versions come, will the world get the shock ? Being a responsible democracy with the armed forces under the control of the politicians and the government, the world can indeed rest assured that it will never be used for offence ..
