Can Brahmos destroy aircraft carrier?

The army and the navy already operated land and sea-based versions of the Brahmos missile inducted in 1998. “The sheer kinetic energy of the missile travelling at nearly three times the speed of sound and the high explosive warhead will destroy the aircraft carrier,” a scientist says.

What speed is hypersonic?

A hypersonic missile is a vehicle that achieves a speed five times faster than the speed of sound, crossing Mach 5. These missiles travel at a speed of around 6,115 km per hour, with a combination of technology and manoeuvrability of ballistic missiles and cruise missiles.

Which is better the Patriot or the S-400?

“My back up on calculation is that S-400 is superior than any other system, be that the American Patriot. It also depends on Patriot derivate that is on offer. For S-400, we know exactly what it means.

Are there any other air defense systems like the S-400?

Another US-made system, the THAAD (Terminal High Altitude Area Defense) missile defense system that is designed to intercept ballistic missiles at high altitude is also a competitor for the S-400 regarding some of its features, though not in terms of direct international sales.

How long does it take to launch a S-400 missile?

The deployment time for S-400 and Patriot PAC-3is 5 minutes and 25minutes respectively. Various informed sources have said that to hit an aircraft with a probability not less than 0.99, one will have to launch 1-2 S-400 missiles or 2-3 Patriot missiles.

Why are Patriot missiles better than ballistic missiles?

The single most important reason why Patriot has much better performance against ballistic missiles is because of PAC-3’s kinetic warhead – hit to kill has far better performance against ballistic missiles like hyper-velocity projectiles. This is why all modern anti-ballistic missile interceptors transitioned to kinetic kill approach.
