00:00 Our authorities have not yet announced that the Brahmos supersonic cruise missiles ordered by the Philippines have been delivered to India.

00:10 Vaughn Aquino is on the scene.

00:12 The news in India is already full of the delivery of their Brahmos supersonic cruise missiles ordered by the Philippines.

00:22 This is part of the $375 million deal that the two countries signed in 2022.

00:28 In the news of the Indian news agency, Asian News International, the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself announced the delivery in an election rally.

00:38 In their news, their defense sources said that the missile system for the Philippine Marine Corps was shipped yesterday, April 19,

00:47 while the ground system for the missiles was delivered a month ago.

00:52 The Armed Forces of the Philippines refused to give a statement and confirmation because it has not yet formally turned over to them.

01:00 We are still trying to confirm the arrival of the Brahmos supersonic cruise missiles to the country from the Department of National Defense.

01:07 The National Security Council also refused to confirm the arrival of the missiles.

01:12 But they say that the Brahmos supersonic cruise missiles, made by Indian and Russian technology,

01:20 are the world's fastest cruise missiles.

01:25 Its maximum extent, in terms of range, exceeds the West Philippine Sea.

01:34 So this actually means that if we see it entering our territory and it is a threat, the Brahmos missile can hit that target

01:47 the moment it enters our exclusive economic zone.

01:51 Assistant Director General Jonathan Malaya added that by the time it is delivered to the Philippines, the AFP is ready to use it.

01:59 The moment both arrive, we are ready to accept it because our troops have been training in India.

02:06 But Malaya clarified...

02:08 We are not preparing for war. So this is more of a deterrence.

02:11 Because we now have several batteries of this Brahmos cruise missile which is going to be deployed to the Philippine Marines.

02:20 For GMA Integrated News, Vonna Kino for 24 Hours.
