India has signed a deal with Vietnam to supply BrahMos supersonic cruise missiles jointly developed with Russia, while negotiations for a similar agreement with Indonesia are in the final stages, Defence Secretary Rajesh Kumar Singh said on Saturday.
The financial details of the Vietnam and Indonesia agreements have not been officially disclosed. However, a deal with Vietnam could be worth about Rs 60 billion (USD 629 million), including training and logistical support, Reuters had previously reported, citing a source.

BrahMos, Astra Missiles: BIG Deals During PM Modi's Indonesia Visit ...
Jakarta:
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is currently on a two-day visit to Indonesia as part of India's Act East Policy. Notably, Indonesia is viewing India as more than just a strategic ally, looking at New Delhi as a reliable partner for technology, governance, and development. India's successful public policy initiatives across multiple sectors are emerging as key models for Indonesia's own development goals.
During PM Mooi's visit, several key deals are expected to be signed between the two nations, especially in defence and technology sectors. From Indonesia's decision to procure Indian-made Astra air-to-air missiles and expand its BrahMos arsenal to India's support for developing Indonesia-specific Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs), the visit is set to mark a new chapter in bilateral ties, sources claimed.

Indonesia’s Defence Ministry confirmed on 9 March, that Jakarta has “entered into an agreement” with India for the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile, as part of its maritime modernization plans. Negotiations had been ongoing since 2023 and Indonesian officials had begun discussing the sale during a November 2025 defence dialogue between their defence minister and India’s Rajnath Singh. Reports suggest a tentative price of roughly $300–450 million, but Indonesia has not officially confirmed the cost. The procurement will likely include at least one BrahMos missile battery for coastal defense. Official contract signing is expected in mid-2026 but the delivery schedule has not been announced. This is a direct export from BrahMos Aerospace with no licensed production planned for Indonesia. Although India has proposed a joint industry committee for technology cooperation.
The BrahMos is a two-stage cruise missile powered by ramjet engines and capable of flying at Mach 3 speed. It can hit targets approximately 290km away and is equipped with a 200–300kg high-explosive warhead. It uses inertial navi…

Singapore, Defence Secretary Rajesh Kumar Singh said on Saturday that he understood a

missile deal with Vietnam had already been signed, though it was probably yet to be publicly announced, while a similar pact involving Indonesia was in the final stages.
"My understanding is that with both Indonesia and with Vietnam, the deal is in the final stages that in fact, for Vietnam, I understand that it has already been signed, probably not publicly announced, but it's already been signed," Singh said in Singapore, while answering a question on potential buyers of the missile system at the Shangri-La Dialogue.

Indonesia’s Ministry of Defence (MoD) announced on 9 March that it had concluded an agreement to acquire BrahMos anti-ship cruise missiles from India.
MoD spokesperson Brigadier General Rico Ricardo Sirait shared, “Indonesia has partnered with India in the procurement of the BrahMos missile system. This is part of our efforts to modernise our weaponry, especially in beefing up our coastal defence.”
It was actually General Romeo Brawner Jr., the Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces of the Philippines, who first publicised the sale, even before this Indonesian confirmation.
Jakarta’s move finalises bilateral discussions that have reportedly been ongoing since 2023. Although the details and value of the procurement were not released by Indonesia’s MoD, online sources speculated it could be valued between US$300-450 million.
The order is expected to include launchers, radar and missiles, although details have not yet bee…
