Also the directorate will be in charge of the development of our Nuke sub project. Because of certain milestones have been achieved the informal nature of the NSFC has been made formal.

 

[somebozo]

hmmmm...2nd strike force? Did someone say nuke subs in a subtle language?

 

[Pakistanisage]

This is the logical development as all Nuclear powers aim to complete the " Nuclear Triad " capability of launching Nukes from Land, Air and Sea and Pakistan is no exception.

It will be the most important part of the triad, it will destroy anyone who dares to make a first strike on our country.

Oh okay Excellent news!!!....the project completion will almost complete our Naval strategic force a truly lethal force in all respects, over water and under water......Alhamdolillah!!!!.....

 

[Jango]

Very interesting news.

When I first heard naval strategic force, I thought what strategic assets does the navy have, but now with this official press release saying Custodian of second strike capability, and that too with a official ISPR press release, definitely means some kind of nuke stuff.

Btw, there were rumors some months back about this, acquiring a nuke sub, after India got one. Expect a nuke sub or something to come in near future!

 

[The Deterrent]

The NSFC was established quite a while ago, with the induction of the Harpoon...

It is only a matter of time before we see a successful test of Babur SLCM...that day Pakistan will officially acquire the Second Strike capability.
