At the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore last month, Defence Secretary Rajesh Kumar Singh stated that India has signed a BrahMos supersonic cruise missile deal with Vietnam. A similar agreement with Indonesia, he said, was in its final stages.
These are just a few of many.
Going back a few years, the Philippines had signed India's first-ever BrahMos export contract in January 2022 for $375 million, covering three shore-based coastal defence missile batteries, according to Reuters. The first battery was delivered in April 2024, the second in April 2025, and the third is currently in the pipeline.
Building on that, Vietnam's contract is valued at approximately $629 million, according to Reuters, and includes coastal defence missile batteries, operator training and long-term logistics support.
Indonesia, which appreciated India's proposal to establish a Joint Defence Industry Cooperation Committee covering technology transfer, joint R&D and supply-chain integration, according to a Ministry of Defence statement, would become the third ASEAN member to field the system if its deal is finalised.
