Attack on PNS Mehran Base - PAF Faisal Base

Such a blast cannot take out the entire cooling mechanism of an NPP, since the cooling mechanism is not constructed in the form of a thin metal sheeted aircraft with jet fuel in it parked in the open. In addition, most NPP's have redundancy in their safety mechanisms so it would require a massive bombing (more along the lines of a jumbo jet being flown into a reactor or a fighter jet bombing it) to destroy all safety mechanisms and induce a meltdown.

Your analogy is absurd.

sry im not a expert on nuclear establishments, but I am just raising the questions that im sure Pakistan will have to answer in the coming weeks. While such a meltdown has a small chance, even a similar attack on a nuclear facility will spark worldwide panic in regards to Pakistani nukes regardless of their nature. You dont have to induce a meltdown to induce panic into the world, that will be a good enough excuse for the US as well. Pakistan will be walking a tightrope in the coming weeks/months.

Of course they did, apparently they knew when the hangers will be open and where the exact location of these aircrafts.

We all know that there are terrorist sympathizers in the military and we know they help the terrorists.

Its all very clear, we must focus on these people because they will kill us and this nation.
It doesn't take a lot of active sympathizers in the military to organize an attack like this. In terms of the layout of the base and the locations of the hangars storing the P3's, all it takes is google earth and one former or active technician at the base to describe the layout and locations of various aircraft housed there.

Lets not build mountains out of molehills in terms of the kind of information required to plan such an attack. Infiltration into the base to execute the attack is a bigger question.

The costs of this attack will be monumental, I am livid that once more the terrorists who have internal support have hurt this nation and this will once more be pushed aside.

This country will be left with nothing if it does not change its ideology and challenge these religious monsters who want to destroy it.

All those years of training, hard work and sacrifices, all it took the terrorists was a few hours to destroy it all.

Another day this nation must put its head down in shame.

If we do not correct ourselves now, this nation will die.

Its a little more complicated than that. Why are terrorists obsessed about Pakistan Navy? Pakistan can't trust anyone these days, not even countries that say we are friends and allies.

There needs to be more security in Pakistan.

What Pakistan needs a change in it's external and internal policy. We need a change in our external policy. Enough with supporting drone attacks behind and condemning it in front of the public. All the agreements with USA should be made public. The external policy should be base on only one thing and that is the defense of Pakistan.

Their should be a change in internal policy also. Set up a separate department for the internal security just like USA made after 9-11. Make CID etc etc more professional. Make them more proactive. Their should be more collaboration among all intelligence agencies and the budget for the agencies responsible for internal security should be increased. We need a proper national security council which will look into such issues.

Raising unjustified hysteria over the safety of nuclear infrastructure is a different argument than the one you were initially making about the actual possibility of Pakistan's nuclear assets being unsafe.

Those are two different issues - one is related to propaganda against Pakistan's nuclear assets, and the other deals with the actual safety of Pakistan's nuclear assets. On the latter issue, there is no cause for concern as explained already.

American fleet of P3C Orion bought by Pakistan was specifically taken out. Cowardly attack. Blue prints similar to Sri Lankan team attack in Lahore.
