India is inching closer to sealing a massive $700 million deal to supply BrahMos supersonic cruise missiles to Vietnam—a pretty big move when it comes to defense ties between the two countries. If this goes through, it’ll rank as one of India’s largest arms exports ever. Vietnam’s been eyeing the BrahMos system for a while now; it’s a joint project between India and Russia. And it doesn’t stop there—Indonesia’s also in serious talks to get in on the action. With growing tensions in the Indo-Pacific, it’s clear the demand is rising. India’s definitely stepping up its defense game globally.
