This is the first "solid fueled" Supersonic "Maneuverable" Cruise Missile.
Not Liquid fueled one, like the ancient American ones or vintage variety of USSR.
Also the Vintage variety needs to be fueled just before it is to be fired. This is a real waste of time in war scenes. There is zero fueling time for Bhramos as opposed to the earlier variety.
Liquid Fueled ones are easy to Control as the fuel ignition can be controlled to direct the missiles. However the solid fueled ones need sophisticated systems (that USA does'nt have the money or Talent to invest in) as once the solid fuel starts propelling the missile, it cannot be slowed or shutdown to direct the missile.

Possibly first to deploy, but not the first to build, by a good 50 years.
