Hence resulting in smaller time interval between successive firings...... Let suppose a ship detects a target behind her tail. Imagine she is available with only forward facing inclined launchers. So to fire a brahmos at her target she will have to do "U Turn" resulting in consumption of precious time. I think no need to explain consequences. Against it if that ship is equipped with a vertical launcher then she can fire a Brahmos at her her target without turning. Above is also applicable in Brahmos LACM case.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-31772864184687234132008-12-22T00:45:00.000+05:302008-12-22T00:45:00.000+05:30Does the Huron actually carry a Nikon D80!!!!! ?

What about the older 3 rajputs? They still have 5-8 years left in them. It looks like the 8 VLS brahmos occupy the space vacated by the SA-N-3 launcher. But I guess 32 Barak-1's should offer some compensation.<BR/><BR/>To the newbie..VLS missiles can be fired in any direction without wasting fuel unlike inclined ones which need either the missile or ship to maneuver if the threat is not directly ahead.su markethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14971895003796725915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-72590001531503188162008-12-20T14:00:00.000+05:302008-12-20T14:00:00.000+05:30Wow! that sure looks awesome ..Wow! that sure looks awesome ..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-551273376483502492008-12-20T00:45:00.000+05:302008-12-20T00:45:00.000+05:30INS Ran Vijay too will be fitted with the BrahMos....INS Ran Vijay too will be fitted with the BrahMos. Both INS Ranvir and INS Ran Vijay will each have 12 BrahMos on board: eight vertically and four housed within inclined launchers of the type now on board INS Rajput. The question to be asked now is: what kind of BrahMos will be on board: pure anti-ship variants or a mix of anti-ship and ship-launched land attack variants? Also note that the photo of INS Ranvir shows it retrofitted with IAI/RAFAEL Barak-1 CIWS and new mast-mounted ESM/EW suite and Desceaver off-board countermeasures dispensers from ELBIT Systems of Israel.Prasun K Senguptahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00369323150694008798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-22791969930469757122008-12-19T23:57:00.000+05:302008-12-19T23:57:00.000+05:30Wow!!
