No proof of any interception or anything..... Look like a successful hit debri.

Since these are only fragments of the missile, it is impossible to determine which specific structure inside the missile it belongs to.
BrahMos is not very big in diameter, only 0.7m.
BrahMos is not very big in diameter, only 0.7m.
After an object flying at Mach 2 to 3 disintegrates in air, only some fragments will remain.
Chinese have live video of it taken by chowmin satellite cameras.
The missile wreckage I posted the first time was not complete. The wreckage of another missile that was shot down was more complete.
Again the diameter of rings is smaller, it seems to 400-450mm.
And fins are different.
Main fin of brahmos is a single peice structure, non movable.
The fin in this wreckage is two peice having a lower and upper structure joined.
This is just a picture I collected from rebbit and twitter, maybe there is a more complete picture I haven't found yet
Judging from the actual photos of the air-launched BrahMos- NG displayed at the Indian Air Show, this missile has a smaller diameter than the conventional BrahMos, and its main wing is also divided into two movable parts.

@VigorousFalcon: At least 1× Brahmos cruise missile, (developed by Russia, produced in India) was intercepted over Jacobabad during the Indian attack against PAF Airbase “Shahbaz” on 10th of May. The wreckage of the...…

Hmm, this seems more believable.
But again, from this pic there seems to be a single joint connecting the second peice of fin to base peice.
Plus the thickness of the fin of this air-launched brahmos is significantly less from the one in the wreckage.
This image shows some Cyrillic letters on the wreckage
So it can be proved that this missile has at least some Russian elements
"MECTO NOA AOXEMEHT KOPCETA" is written in russian.
Translating to russian letters its.
МЕСТО ДЛЯ ДОКУМЕНТА КОРСЕТА
Which translates to.
“Place for the Korset/corset document”
this does not refer to a “cradle of curset”, but instead is saying:
> This is the place for the documentation of the Korset/Corset system.
Now the word Corset here is weird, as just like in English, in russian korset/corset also means Corset that medival women used to wear to appear slim.
So it probably refers to a system that tightens the structure or holds the structure together.
Though with this, it does have decent probability of being brahmos.
Still doesn't prove it was intercepted.... There is no proof of any interception by Pakistani.. ... Few brahmos were aborted mid flight..... There may be a slight possibility it was a malfunction like one Scalp that dropped almost intact or this could just be a debri of after brahmos strike which in all probability it is.
There were statements by Pakistani 'neutral' analysts (whatever those are) that a couple of Brahmos fired which were of the oldest Block experienced technical issues and were either aborted or failed mid-flight by themselves. This is a RUMINT. I could not find any publication of such a report.
This is their level:
If IW is handled well, it is easy to find these ISPR bots.

Given how lazily your folks copy stuff, it could be a Chinese device "inspired" by Russian designs, isnt it Tian xin?
Even if we take your claim at face value and assume that it’s Brahmos, this is the only wreckage of Brahmos seen so far.
Meaning that either this missile malfunctioned and crashed or it was shot down.
1 missile intercepted out of 15 isn’t something to be proud about.
For Chinese and Pakistanis the standards are different. They can claim victory and jump 10 ft in air out of joy if they hit one Indian missile.
On the Chinese Internet, few people paid attention to the wreckage of the two BrahMos missiles. After all, our target is the United States, with its numerous AGM-158 and newly commissioned LRHW missiles, PrSM missiles
What India's air strike on Pakistan has inspired us is the importance of AEWCin national air defense operations. Traditional ground-based radars are affected by the curvature of the earth and have difficulty detecting low-flying targets from a long distance, especially supersonic targets like BrahMos.
This is also the reason why we equip KJ500 on a large scale,
A high-performance AESA radar is more important than anything else in the air.
Well, it's another headache defending AWACS from long range AAM. Especially against a country like the US which I hear has a 600 km AAM for HVT such as AWACS. Future is integrated network of AWACS, ground radars and space assets. Multidimensional multi-domain ISR which only US and China can do right now.
Also it appears from the E7 Wedgetail rejection US is focusing on satellites to detect and track missiles. Where is China wtr to this? I have heard a lot of China's AWACS but I have no clue on Chinese programmes to track jets and missiles from space.
