I am not sure any country including US can intercept Brahmos in the Hi-Hi trajectory. High speed coupled with low RCS will make it really difficult to intercept. They may have a 10-20% chance at the best.

Shaurya may have CEP of ~50m or more given it is a ballistic missile and its long range. This makes a big difference and Sharuya will not be very effective with a conventional warhead. I...
