Safeguarding BrahMos: Enabling Safe Handling
CRA was commissioned by BrahMos Aerospace to design, manufacture, and qualify The Corset-an advanced missile handling system engineered to ensure the safe handling, transport, and integration of the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile across multiple deployment platforms.
Designing a High-Integrity Handling System for Extreme Defence Environ-ments
BrahMos Aerospace required a mission-criticalmechanical system that could:
- Safely secure and transport supersonic missile units across air, land, and naval platforms.
- Withstand extreme shock, vibration, and dynamic loading conditions.
- Maintain precise alignment and compatibility across multiple launch configurations.
- Comply with rigorous defence QA protocols and full traceability requirements.
Custom-Built Missile Handling System with Full Qualification and Traceability
CRA engineered The Corset to deliverunmatched structural integrity and reliability under extreme operationalconditions. Each system was developed with:
- Precision Engineering: Over 1,500 components manufactured to exacting tolerances at CRA’s NCR facility.
- Structural Robustness: Engineered to endure severe vibration and shock profiles representative of real-world deployment.
- Full QA and Compliance: Certified under ORDAQA and full QAP, with complete raw material traceability and third-party audits.
- Custom Load-Testing Infrastructure: Purpose-built testing facilities simulated critical operational stresses, validating system reliability and safety.
Proven Reliability Across India’s Defence Platforms
- Mission-Critical Validation: Successfully qualified and deployed across all branches of BrahMos operations.
- Exceptional Durability: Demonstrated resilience under extreme environmental and dynamic conditions.
- Cross-Platform Compatibility: Seamlessly integrated with land, air, and naval launch systems.
- Consistent Quality: Every batch validated under custom test protocols and comprehensive third-party audits.
