"No problems will emerge with the integration of the BrahMos missile complex into the frigate. We have already integrated it into the other three Project 11356 frigates acquired by the Indian Navy," he said.
The Severnoye design bureau is the developer of project 11356 warships for the Russian and Indian Navies. The first three out of six frigates operational in the Indian Navy are armed with the Russian-made Club-N strike system while the other three - with the Russian-Indian BrahMos multipurpose missile system that is capable of hitting both sea surface and ground targets.
Director for International Cooperation and Regional Policy at Russia’s State Corporation Rostec Viktor Kladov, who heads the joint delegation of Rostec and Rosoboronexport arms trader at the show, said earlier that the planned contract for the delivery of project 11356 frigates for the Indian Navy would be implemented under the "two plus two" formula:" two frigates are to be built in Russia and delivered ready-for-use to India and the other two would be constructed by the Indian shipbuilding industry at one of the national shipyards.
