Pakistan says Indian cruise missile Russian-made

IRNA

Islamabad, Oct 30, IRNA - The supersonic cruise anti-ship missile 
tested in Indian state of Oressa on Wednesday was solely developed by 
Russia and not by India, Pakistan`s Minister for Information and 
Broadcasting Sheikh Rashid Ahmed said. 
"The missile was made in Russia while it was only colored in 
India, as the Indians have no such technology with them", the 
official APP news agency reported quoting the minister as saying. 
India successfully tested supersonic cruise missile, `Brahmos` 
for fourth time from the Integrated Test Range at Chandipur on 
Wednesday. 
"India cannot deter us by testing of such imported missile 
technology - our technology is far ahead in the field and we firmly 
believe in its strength, might and accuracy," he added. 
Defense sources said the test-flight had primary objective of 
establishing precision guidance capability in surface to surface 
version.
