Both of the entities making the BrahMos missiles are government owned meaning that Russia and India are business partners for making missiles, which may be in use in Ukraine, or may be in use soon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NPO_Mashinostroyeniya

Why didn’t they name the joint venture, and missiles, KaliMos or KaliKremlin after the Hindu goddess of death and destruction?

“India-Russia joint venture hopes for $5 billion in supersonic missile exports by 2025 October 18, 2022 NEW DELHI (Reuters) – An India-Russia joint venture that makes nuclear capable supersonic cruise missiles…. The joint venture, with a 50.5% Indian and 49.5% Russian partnership, fits into Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s flagship make-in-India programme.

India has made Russian MiG fighter planes and Su-30 jets under licence and the two have collaborated to make BrahMos missiles in India. Russia has also traditionally been India’s main arms supplier…” https://finance.yahoo.com/news/india-russia-joint-venture-hopes-094952446.html

“Brahmos” is ready to supply missiles to the Russian army: Co-director of “Brahmos” Maksichev: the company is ready to supply missiles to the Russian army“ 08/29/2022 https://web.archive.org/web/20220831150746/https://ria.ru/20220829/bramos-1812793653.html

Why did they name it BrahMos instead of KaliMos for Kali, the Hindu goddess of death and destruction, and Moscow? Why not KremlinKali? The Mos is for Moscow and the Brah is clearly for Hindu Brahmins, even though the claim is that it was named for rivers.

Why is India allowed to get by with murder – both metaphorically and literally? Why does India have no ethics? Discussing their wickedness is wearisome and falls on deaf ears.

Will the US sanction India? “U.S. to sanction military procurement network aiding Russia, Yellen says” By David Lawder, November 13, 2022 9:51 PM EST https://www.reuters.com/world/us-imposing-sanctions-military-procurement-network-russia-says-yellen-2022-11-14/

Over 1.4 Billion people in India! https://www.census.gov/popclock/world/in Discussing India’s wickedness is wearisome, especially since people continue to ignore it to their own peril and to the peril of the world. Worse, some criticize those who speak the sad truth. This pre-dates Modi and it includes the many in the diaspora, who put their own interests and India’s interests ahead of their host country. India has the largest diaspora in the world.

Why won’t India do anything right or good? Why are Asian-Indians such self-serving, duplicitous, pro-Russian twits? This is true for both the (mostly upper caste) diaspora and sadly India itself. Why don’t they move to Russia, which has plenty of room? There’s some hope that if Russia or China got a different government that they might become decent countries. There’s apparently no hope that India will ever be a decent country. The problem must lie in India’s caste system, as well as the long-standing Soviet-Russian influence. India got its independence 75 years ago, so no excuses. Ireland was colonized for almost a thousand years and got its independence in the same period.

India building missiles with Russia is just the icing on the cake of self-serving deception, fraud: Insider trading, Covid relief fraud, phone scams, contaminated medicine that killed people, destruction of US hotel-motels, theft of US jobs, etc. A few examples:

US Congressman Ro Khanna’s grandfather Amarnath Vidyalankar with Indira Gandhi, circa 1975, By Vshaiva. via wikimedia CC-BY-SA

India and US House member Ro Khanna are US national security threats: “CAATSA waiver to India: Indian-American Congressman introduces standalone bill in US House Ro Khanna has introduced bill in the US House of Representatives seeking a waiver to India against the punitive CAATSA sanctions, asserting that it is in the best interests of both countries to deter ‘aggressors’ in light of Russia and China’s close ties”. Press Trust of India September 07, 2022 12:10:15 IST https://web.archive.org/web/20220926233139/https://www.firstpost.com/world/caatsa-waiver-to-india-indian-american-congressman-introduces-standalone-bill-in-us-house-11199671.html https://clerk.house.gov/evs/2022/roll332.xml

Ro Khanna sits on the US House Armed Services Committee which “oversees all laws pertaining to the United States military and exercises oversight on the annual national defense budget” and “is also a member the Readiness and Strategic Forces subcommittees.” He is on the House Budget Committee. He is part of the secretive (no list can be found) US House India Caucus: “Indian-American Ro Khanna named Democratic vice chair of Congressional India Caucus”, Orissa Post, Dec. 17th, 2020 https://archive.vn/7pT3g The article says that Ro would “would spend hours with his grandfather listening to him.” His grandfather was close to Indira Gandhi and part of the socialist-communist faction of India’s Congress Party, which was infiltrated by the KGB.

Ro Khanna’s grandfather, Amarnath Vidyalankar, helped create the [India National] “Congress Forum for Socialist Action”, which influenced Prime Minister Indira Gandhi and India, and apparently led India to its pro-Soviet tilt (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics). The Forum for Socialist Action was infiltrated by the Communist Party of India and one of its leading figures was recruited in 1971 by the KGB as Agent RERO for both political intelligence and as a KGB agent recruiter, according to the Mitrokhin archives.

Why is NATO member Turkey under sanctions but India not? Because Turkey doesn’t have members of the US Congress or a VP? Apart from occupants of the US Congress, who were born in India and with India roots, there are India “caucuses” in the US Congress.

Despite claims, below, it’s very clear that Brahmos is named for the upper caste Hindu Brahmins and Moscow.
“Indian missiles may appear in the Ukrainian sky
The co-director of the Brahmos company announced its readiness to supply the RF Armed Forces with supersonic cruise missiles August 29 19:35 Anna Sedov
PJ-10 Brahmos (PJ-10 BrahMos, the name is derived from the name of the Brahmaputra and Moscow rivers) is a supersonic cruise missile developed jointly by the VPK NPO Mashinostroeniya and the Defense Research and Development Organization of the Ministry of Defense of India. The missiles are assembled by SO BrahMos Aerospace in Hyderabad and OAO PO Strela in Orenburg. The first test launch took place in 2001. Various versions of the missile are in service with the Indian Air Force, Navy and Army. Brahmos is based on the Yakhont anti-ship missile, an export version of the Russian P-800 Oniks cruise missile developed in the 1980s. “Brahmos” can reach speeds of 2.5-2.8 times the speed of sound, missiles can be launched from submarines, ships, aircraft or from ground platforms. Capable of hitting targets at a distance of 300 km in the base version and up to 450 km in the upgraded version. The missile is guided to a land or sea target by an inertial system and corrected by a radar homing head.“ https://web.archive.org/web/20221113132753/https://svpressa.ru/war21/article/344482/

“Missiles… from India, or Russia does not have enough weapons for a war with Ukraine August 30, 2022, 4:36 p.m
Russia often carried out missile strikes from the sea on Odessa and the Odesa region, using P-800 Onyx missiles. The coastal defense forces of the Russian Black Sea Fleet are equipped with them – several complexes (up to two dozen S/PU) of the Bastion PBRK. 

These complexes are located near the city of Anapa (11th Coastal Artillery Brigade), in the city of Sevastopol (15th BRAV Brigade), as well as the so-called object 100 near Cape Ayia — the Bastion-C complexes (index K300C) — a stationary version of a mine base.

In addition to the “Bastions”, several objects of the naval fleet were equipped with P-800 “Onyx” missiles. In particular, small missile ships of project 21631 “Cherry Wolf”, “Orekhovo-Zuyevo”, “Ingushetia” and “Grayvoron”. According to some data, at the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Russia had more than four hundred such missiles, and quite actively struck our coastal cities with them. But recently, launches of “Onyx” have become quite rare. 

Oleksandr Kovalenko, a military and political columnist of the “Information Resistance” group (“The Angry Odessan.” – Author) told a rather interesting story on his Telegram channel. https://t.me/s/zloyodessit https://t.me/zloyodessit/16679

According to him, the cause of the “loud explosion and a lot of smoke” that happened on August 28 at Cape Fiolent in the temporarily occupied Crimea was the P-800 “Onyx” missile, which… fell either by itself or was shot down by Russian air defense. ”

Until recently, the Odesa region was regularly bombarded with these missiles. Not a day passed that they were not launched around the city and region. But now they are practically not used. First of all, because they have become quite scarce,” Kovalenko noted.

He is convinced: if it was the launch of the P-800, then it took place after a rather long pause. Which suggests that currently the P-800 missiles in Russia remain only in storage.

“And taking it out of storage is not just tearing the seal and taking it to ‘charge’.” The conditions for storing weapons, ammunition and equipment in Russia are well known to everyone. Therefore, after such “storage”, all this must undergo additional maintenance and even repair,” Kovalenko added.

He assumed that Russia must have launched the P-800, which was removed from storage, and it turned out to be unusable.

Having a significant shortage of such missiles, Russia began to urgently look for a place to quickly replenish their stock, and found such missiles … in India. 

At one time, back in 1998, the joint Russian-Indian enterprise “Brahmos” was created. It was named after the rivers Brahmaputra and Moscow. The main project of the enterprise was the creation and production of a supersonic cruise missile, which received a similar name – “Brahmos”. The first launch of the rocket took place on June 12, 2001 from a coastal launcher. The prototype of “Bramosa” became the well-known in Russia P-800 “Onyx” missile (more precisely, its export version “Yakhont”. — Author).

The missile has undergone a series of tests and improvements, and today it is called PJ-10 BrahMos (PJ-10 BrahMos), a supersonic cruise missile developed jointly by the VPC “NVO Masinobuduvannya” enterprises and the Defense Research and Development Organization of the Ministry of Defense of India. Missile assembly is carried out by BrahMos Aerospace CO in Hyderabad and Strela JSC in Orenburg. Different versions of the missile are in service with the Indian Air Force, Navy and Ground Forces.

Reference books report that the Brahmos rocket can develop a speed that is 2.5-2.8 times the speed of sound. It can be launched from submarines, ships, aircraft or from land platforms. The missile hits targets at a distance of 300 km in the basic version and up to 450 km in the upgraded version. It is guided to a land or sea target by an inertial system and corrected by a radar homing head. The launch mass of the rocket is up to 3 tons, the mass of the warhead is 200–450 kg. The Indians produced PJ-10 BrahMos in various variants, which can be launched from platforms of different bases and for different purposes.

The Russian army wants to purchase such missiles for attacks on Ukraine from the Bramos enterprise. For its part, it is already ready to supply the Russian army with supersonic anti-ship missiles of the same name, which it needs very much at the moment. Oleksandr Maksichev, co-director of the company from the Russian side, stated this in an interview with RIA Novosti. https://web.archive.org/web/20221113132753/https://svpressa.ru/war21/article/344482/
However, the Russians do not take into account the political aspects, namely the possibility of imposing sanctions on India for the supply of weapons to Russia by the United States and other countries of the world. So they seriously targeted the missiles that the Indian side manufactures under Russian license. I doubt that India, for its part, will dare to spoil relations with the civilized world for the sake of the exile country of Russia, and the desire to earn bloody rubles from the war in Ukraine will overcome all cautions.

Vlad Volshyn doesn’t seem to realize that India has been coddled like Russia. As a result they think that they can do as they please. Rules don’t apply to them. In the case of Russia, it’s clearly because of the natural resources. India, on the other hand, probably has dirt on politicians through the IT and hotel-motel sectors, as well as bribery, whether legal or illegal.

India doesn’t have “democratic principles”. The Soviets “love bombed” Indira Gandhi and gave her a fur coat and got their foot in the door and apparently haven’t left since.
“India’s stance on the Ukraine war makes little sense: The country hasn’t just dumped its democratic principles but is providing crucial financial support for Russia’s brutal invasion.” https://www.politico.eu/article/indias-stance-on-the-ukraine-war-makes-little-sense/

Indira Gandhi in the USSR: “The KGB’s first prolonged contact with Indira Gandhi had occurred during her first visit to the Soviet Union, a few months after Stalin’s death in 1953. As well as keeping her under continuous surveillance, the Second Chief Directorate also surrounded her with handsome, attentive male admirers.26 Unaware of the orchestration of her welcome by the KGB, Indira was overwhelmed by the attentions lavished on her. Though she did not mention the male admirers in letters to her father, she wrote to him, ‘Everybody- the Russians – have been so sweet to me. I am being treated like everybody’s only daughter – I shall be horribly spoilt by the time I leave. Nobody has ever been so nice to me. Indira wrote of a holiday arranged for her on the Black Sea, “I don’t think I have had such a holiday for years.’. Later, in Leningrad, she told Nehru that she was “wallowing in luxury? 31 Two years later Indira accompanied her father on his first official visit to the Soviet Union. Like Nehru, she was visibly impressed by the apparent successes of Soviet planning and economic modernization exhibited to them in carefully stage-managed visits to Russian factories. During her trip, Khrushchev presented her with a mink coat, which became one of the favourite items in her wardrobe…” Excerpt from CHRISTOPHER ANDREW and VASILI MITROKHIN, “THE WORLD WAS GOING OUR WAY: The KGB and the Battle for the Third World, 2005, p. 582.
