No. The Brahmos is a short range tactical missile unlike India's longer range Agni which is capable of covering much of China, the middle east and all of Pakistan. As such, the location sites of the Agni remain secret. The Brahmos is mainly meant to be used as a anti-ship missile. It is viewed by some to be the next step up over the well known American Tomahawk cruise missile. The latter is subsonic while the Brahmos is supersonic. Speed of course is not everything. The Tomahawk has a very effective (but also relatively cheap) satellite based navigation system which allows it to be deployed and launched very rapidly against constantly changing targets.
