China flexing muscles, govt clears Brahmos for Arunachal PranabDhalSamanta Tags : Brahmos cruise missiles, China muscles, Arunachal Pradesh, Indian military Posted: Mon Oct 17 2011, 02:46 hrs New Delhi: Pressing ahead with the second phase of military expansion along the China front, the government has given the go-ahead to deployment of Brahmos cruise missiles in Arunachal Pradesh. This will be India's first offensive tactical missile deployment against China, sources said. The three Brahmos missile regiments raised so far have been deployed in the western sector to counter the Pakistan threat. This will be the fourth regiment. With a range of 290 km, these cruise missiles are being deployed to improve India's military reach into the Tibet Autonomous Region and counter China's elaborate missile deployment along the Sino-Indian border. This, sources said, dovetails with India's second expansion plan but is being fast-tracked because of urgency shown by the armed forces. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has also cleared the five-year expansion plan for which he had given the green signal earlier. The plan involves fresh accretion of 89,000 troops, with 400 officers. |
