My dear, participating aircraft don't just take-off from their respective bases and fly over the venue, they have to hold pattern and fly in circuits before executing their run in, so extra fuel is always viable.

On a serious note, We haven't seen Ghauri Missile in the parade.

I suppose operational weapons systems made by NDC only were displayed in the parade, as Abdali (SUPARCO), Ghaznavi (PMO), Ghauri (KRL), Ra'ad (AWC) weren't displayed.

Heard from a reliable poster on PAKDEF, that the lead JCO Paratrooper for the SSW in the parade was a Hindu from Sindh, good that the minorities and also people from outside traditional recruitment are joining the forces.

Children from different schools from Abu Dhabi, including those Christian community schools, began the ceremony with the recitation of national anthem and songs with messages that Pakistan was a citadel for multi-culture, multi-lingual and multi-religion souls living in peace despite of terrorist attacks by some groups with their agendas to disturb the peaceful atmosphere.

“Pakistan was both our identity and destiny. In its 68 years, Pakistani nation had witnessed many challenges and measured up to each one with resilience and resolve,” said Durrani.

In this context, he also mentioned the success of the ongoing operation Zarb-e-Azb in the light of the latest terrorist attack on a Peshawar school.

Recalling the historic struggle of the Muslims of South Asia for a separate homeland under the leadership of Muhammad Ali Jinnah, he urged the community to play their role with dedication and commitment to make Pakistan a stronger and prosperous country.

This heavy diesel engine is really "shitting bricks" to carry this massive Shaheen-II missile. Just look at the amount of smoke around the vehicle.
