NEW DELHI — Russia has made a veiled threat that it may stop bidding for Indian military contracts, complaining that some procurements seem to have been engineered for predetermined outcomes.

NEW DELHI — India successfully test-fired the vertical-launch version of the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile off the coast of its western state of Goa on May 22. The BrahMos was launched from the Indian navy’s latest Russian-built guided missile warship, INS Tarkash, BrahMos Aerospace chief Sivathanu Pillai says. The missile hit its target, Pillai says. “Today’s vertical launch configuration of BraMos will help improve the stealth abilities of the ship as the missiles are under the deck and not exposed,” Pillai says.
