In my opinion, there no need for a 2 meter dia missile.
The better think to improve upon will be the solid fuel and grain structure, which is still rubbish on Pakistani missiles.
Judging by the size of exhaust plume.
Warheads fall into 3 categories
Strategic for large scale indiscriminate destruction. Such as cities.
Sub strategic for limited but significant destruction. Such a large naval base or airfield.
Tactical for small scale destruction in battlefield or military bases.
It's not worth it for...
I am assuming that going by the size of the third stage on Ababeel, the payload capacity got to be higher than 1.5 tons. May be 2 tons.
Specially going by the stated ranges.
The missile on which Ababeel is based, the Shaheen 3 has a range of 2750 km. But Ababeel loses 500km range despite having...
Who you call a terrorist?
Someone who has a bomb full of ball bearings strapped to his chest and intends to kill civilians and soldiers indiscriminately.
Or a bunch of people protesting the arrest of their political leadership?
If the later is terrorism then the whole of PPP should be in prison...
Many such projects are underway. But we're they completed ?
Even if completed, were they actually manufactured and deployed?
Pakistan sucks at completion and manufacturing of projects.
One shining example is ground surveillance radar. All research and development done by NUST with a meagre...
Probably yes. That's why I have always been skeptical of this missile. No wonder PAF only bought 50 units, as per one of the MODP annual reports.
In my opinion it can't be a mainstay weapon, but an added extra and a "Red herring " or a distraction, so that the mainstay weapons Babur and Raad...
CM-400 is different from other anti ship missiles. Most ASM are cruise missiles. CM-400 is Quasi ballistic.
The problem with CM-400 is that to comply with being carried by small jets such as JF-17, it had to be lite , weighing 910kg, but to kill a ship, it also had to carry a significant...
Democracy minus the people and people's wishes.
Company plus Feudal elite shall rule, no matter what people want
Still keep calling this Democracy.
IK crime was that he enlightened people about their rights and what was being done to them by Feudal + Company Nexus.
He is being punished for that.
Pakistan only ever officially released apogee data of a ballistic missile once, along with warhead weight.
That was AQ Khan's ballsy move.
The Ghauri missile first launch was reported officially in a press conference to have risen to 350 km altitude, carrying a 700kg warhead.
Never again such...
