SUPARCO's annual budget is probably less than 14 million USD which is the money India spent to launch this scale model, but that's not the point here.So what is Pakistan trying to make?
Point being Space shuttle isn't a cheap way of launching satellites, that's why it was abandoned by USA and Russia. Now reusable rockets and Soyuz style capsules are the things to work for.
This was just a very small technology demonstrator which didn't go high enough for having any real reentry hazards. But even if a decade from now India does succeed in building a functional space shuttle, it's a thing of the past today, what chance it will have 10-20 years from now?
