Anwar confirms Malaysia exploring acquisition of India’s BrahMos missile system

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim announced that Malaysia is considering the acquisition of India's BrahMos missile system, though he clarified that the final decision is pending. He made this statement during an interview with India's NDTV, following a bilateral meeting with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The discussions took place within the context of the bilateral relationship, which is built on trust according to Anwar.

He expressed his support for expanding the relationship across various fields, including defense. The BrahMos missile is a long-range, ramjet-powered supersonic cruise missile, capable of being launched from various platforms such as submarines, ships, fighter aircraft, or transporter erector launcher. It is a joint project between India's Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and the Russian Federation's NPO Mashinostroyeniya, collectively known as BrahMos Aerospace.
