What's new

Ababeel SSM - Pakistan gains MIRV technology.

It has been more than 3 yrs since Ababeel's first and Only test. No new test in 3yrs since.
A missile needs atleast 3-4 tests before it is ready for induction and then another 1-2 tests to declare it Ops.
 
. . .
Becaus I checked each and every NOTAM issued from Pakistan and found no NOTAM fitting Ababeel.
There was one NOTAM in 2018 that looked like it could be Ababeel's but it got cancelled 24 hrs before it was meant to take effect.
You are worng here on multiple occassion we tested medium range ballistic missiles specially Shaheen. Why do you think that if a NOTAM is issued, it is just for one test ?

Well, its maybe bc Ababeel uses the tried and tested missile base of Shaheen-II/Shaheen III----with modifications in the warhead design and PBV (which can be tested without actual firing tests).

Just a hypothesis

Because missile tests are not secret. Everyone follows its trajectory.

Maybe they are improving its shortcomings. Recently, Pakistan got something from China which is critical for MIRV Technology

Well maybe we will test again after India gets S400

Not everyone. Only the military surveillance asigned for that task and military top brass along with top defense officials. I am sure none of Indian of Pakistani member here has access of such surveillance data.

You mean a 1400 mile MIRV that has not shown any MIRV apart from a missile going up.

Oh look we got another Raj47 here.

Pak wouldn't call it a MIRV if it wasn't a MIRV...Pak does plenty of missile tests(some conducted even after Ababeel's test) and doesn't just call them a MIRV missile if they are not MIRV. If a missile test was done for MIRV testing...then it must be for MIRV testing.

But u r welcome to live in denial...just keep repeating in ur head that "all Pak does is a paint job of Chinese weapons and Chinese weapons are junk"

Good but pak should stop these land based missiles production we need sea based nuclear triad in our subs which will increase our impact on our enemies that even after we get defeated the nukes are still there to defeat u from seas army should stop its imposment on other two forces and give equal share to other forces army is less important airforce does the major damage and navy

That's a step by step process. No need to jump the gun and develop/demonstrate a MIRV ICBM first. Instead it should be done in steps...as not to draw attention...
1) MIRV(already under development)
2) A nuclear submarine(there are rumors that a mini nuclear reactor for a sub is in development)
3) ICBM
4) using the ICBM/MIRV knowledge...develop a MIRV SLBM that can hit anywhere on earth

This would give true second strike capability. All of this requires deep pockets though...so economy would have to pick up.

Shaheen 2 NOTAMs are excluded because they were used by the Shaheen.
Navarea 7-10 never conducts multiple tests in a single window.

The maximum range of Pakistan's ballistic missiles has been capped at 2750km (Shaheen-III). As per former DG SPD Gen (R) Khalid Kidwai, Pakistan does not intend on exceeding this range. There is no intent for developing an ICBM, which would be an overkill for credible minimum deterrence (CMD) posture. Without launch platforms capable of launching SLBM it is difficult to state that Pakistan would invest in such a capability. At best, PN would be equipped with long-range cruise missiles.
