India conducted two successful anti-ship missile tests from the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, the Indian Navy informed via Twitter on February 2. Fired by the Andaman and Nicobar Command (ANC), the two missiles were BrahMos and Uran and were launched from the Indian Navy's guided-missile corvette. The ANC even released a video clip of the launch on Twitter featuring the two anti-ship weapons. The latest test-fire comes just a week after the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile was fired off the coast of Odisha in Balasore on January 20. Being developed under the collaboration of BrahMos Aerospace and Russia's NPO Mashinostroyenia, the BrahMos cruise missile system can be launched from air, sea or land and comes with variants for anti-ship and land-attack roles with nuclear warheads.
