Summary: The BrahMos does not inflict greater damage than the Tomahawk. In fact, the opposite is the case. In fact, the opposite is the case. However, its high speed should easily allow it to be more successful at penetrating the defensive perimeter of an opponent, simply by virtue of reducing their reaction time, as well as due to being harder ...
