Philippines Expresses Satisfaction with Made-in-India BrahMos Missile Systems
The Philippines is pleased to be the first export customer of India's BrahMos supersonic cruise missile system, viewing it as a significant defence acquisition that enhances its deterrence capabilities. Ambassador Josel F. Ignacio highlighted the advanced and effective nature of the technology and noted that this deal positions India as a credible defence technology supplier for Manila. The acquisition may lead to further defence procurement collaborations between the two countries, though future purchases depend on the Philippines' defence authorities.
