|November 28, 2025
India and Indonesia on Thursday discussed the possible sale of the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile to the Southeast Asian country, during talks between defence minister Rajnath Singh and his Indonesian counterpart Sjafrie Sjamsoeddin in Delhi, people aware of the matter said.
Talks on the proposed missile sale are moving in the right direction, the people said, asking not to be named.
Indonesia has been engaged in negotiations with India on acquiring the BrahMos missile system, and the two sides have reached a broad understanding on the pricing of the deal, expected to be worth around $450 million, as previously reported by HT.
Singh presented a model of the missile to the visiting leader.
India used the missile effectively against Pakistan during the four-day military confrontation in May under Operation Sindoor.
