Pakistan again test-fires Babur Missile with range 700km

[Windjammer]

WRONG direction of image lolz now these are 2 or four? BTW i was right its same as NASR missile tube

This is just the test vehicle, even if this supports only two, having up to four tubes is very much compatible.

There you go guys....Windjammer brings you the first image.

Pakistan successfully test fired its multi tube, indigenously developed Cruise Missile Hatf – VII (Babur) today. (28-10-11)

Is the picture or the missile really has lost some serious weight. I wonder how the Indians are going to track it down with their ABM, something this small and which flies low and has terrain hugging capability.

Terrain hugging missiles are detected and tracked from air(using Doppler shift) by AWACs or Aerostats and not by ground based radars.

Great going Pakistan, thumbs up for the engineers & scientists. The sooner we make Nasr,Babur and Ra'ad operational the greater will be our strength!

Windjammer thanks for the picture buddy..... Orange wrath is really looking damn cool.

I think it has been modified a great deal, overall validation of a new MLV is a key thing.

Congratulations to Pakistan for achieving yet another milestone.

Sir je I think it is more like NASR than CJ-10.. If it was like CJ10 then the third tube would been have also visible in the angle, or at least the protuberance or more wider gap with depression.

The three tube MLV enhances manifold the targeting and deployment options in the conventional and nuclear modes.

It have Three Missile Tubes

Have to say, This version of Missile Launch Vehicle (MLV) looks great

So can Pakistan Fire at least 2 Missiles at the same time ?

News article has mentioned 3 but not at same time, i guess. with a lil Difference.
Just wait for more pictures from diff angles.

I mean with difference of few seconds only just like when we use MRL

 

[Windjammer]

What makes it more interesting is the vertical launch compared to the earlier tests.....ready to be deployed on sea vessels. ??!!

It have Three Missile Tubes

guys i think its fired from 3rd tube behind the first two ... check the position of missile its almost between the first two so it was not fired from any of the front two tubes ... what you think ?

Its good to hear that Pakistan is still doing missle tests but it will be great if it tests at least 1700km cruise missile instead of 700km. 700km is too old tech now.
