Balasore (Odisha) [India], July 12 (ANI): In a rare instance, the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile failed during a testfiring being carried out off the coast of Odisha on Monday and fell shortly after takeoff.

印度奧里薩邦巴拉合爾,7月12日報道:周一發(fā)生了“一個罕見的情況”,布拉莫斯超音速巡航導彈在奧里薩邦海岸試射失敗,起飛后不久就墜毀。

The extended range version of the missile was being tested which is capable of hitting targets up to 450 kilometres.

這種導彈的增程版正在測試中,能夠打擊至多450公里的目標。

"The missile fell off very shortly after the launch this morning. The reasons for the failure would be analysed by a joint team of scientists from the Defence Research and Development Organisation and BrahMos aerospace corporation," sources told ANI here.

消息人士告訴ANI:“今天早上,導彈發(fā)射后不久就掉下來了。DRDO和布拉莫斯航空公司將派出科學家組成聯(lián)合團隊,分析此次失敗的原因。”

BrahMos has been a very reliable missile and has failed very rarely during tests. Sources said prima facie it seems that the missile failed due to issues with the propulsion system but the exact cause would be known only after complete test analysis.

布拉莫斯是一種非??煽康膶?,在測試中很少失敗。消息人士稱,初步看來導彈的失敗是由于推進系統(tǒng)的問題,但確切原因只有在完成測試分析后才能知道。

BrahMos supersonic cruise missile earlier was used for below 300 km targets but would now be used for striking at longer ranges with supersonic speeds.

布拉莫斯超音速巡航導彈早些時候曾用于打擊300公里以下的目標,但現(xiàn)在將用于更遠距離的超音速打擊。

Notably, a number of other versions of the supersonic cruise missile were earlier developed by BrahMos Aerospace under joint ventures between the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) of India and NPO Mashinostroeyenia (NPOM) of Russia.

值得注意的是,早先布拉莫斯航空航天公司在DRDO和俄羅斯NPOM的合資企業(yè)還開發(fā)了一些其他版本的超音速巡航導彈。

The BrahMos supersonic cruise missile range derived its name from two rivers, the Brahmaputra in India and the Moskva in Russia. (ANI)

布拉莫斯超音速巡航導彈得名于兩條河流,即印度的布拉馬普特拉河和俄羅斯的莫斯科河。
