Burraq UCAV information pool

ok so the ones in a picture where several of em are lined up ( pic # 3 post # 3)seem much smaller in size compared to the one in pics in post number 1.Or am I getting really old?
 
The engine is Rotax, the HP is unknown
Barq Missile is Pakistani derivative of AR-1 - maybe sensor upgrade etc
EOTS is Pakistani so is Data link (Raabta) to hook it up with the existing C4ISR structure
Rotax 912ULS 100 hp (75 kW)
Rotax - Why 912 iS Sport

It's not as small as people think .. Burraq is bigger than Shahpar ..

how? the CH-3 has 4.8km (15,000ft) and this Pak UCAV has the similar propulsion most probably

Does 500 feet make a difference??? It doesn't stop this platform from operating. It also doesn't reduce its ability to track bad guys and to take them out. But adding 5000 feet isn't that big of a deal. Just need to use a slightly higher powered engine. I think these guys use a 4 cylinder engine, i you put 6 on, you can easily achieve 5K feet as the payload weight and dimensions don't change.
 
REFRAIN from discussions in the INFO POOL. Stick to threads dedicated for discussion.
 
I think Shahpur is what was originally intended to be the Buraq but with all the hardships that come from starting a project from scratch they eventually to give the Buraq designation to a bigger version of the CH-3. WHat do you guys think?
 
Domestic weapons are always more reliable in time of war.Congratulations.
 
AGM-114A Basic Hellfire
  • Target: Tanks, armored vehicles.
  • Range: 8,000 m (8,750 yd)
  • Guidance: Semi-active laser homing (SALH).
  • Warhead: 8 kg (18 lb) shaped charge HEAT.
  • Length: 163 cm (64 in)
  • Weight: 45 kg (99 lb)

AR-1 (Burq)
The AR-1 is reportedly another development of the HJ-10. It is a missile specifically designed to be carried by unmanned combat air vehicles (UCAV), such as the CH-3, which was unveilled at the 7th Zhuhai Airshow held at the end of 2008, when the AR-1 also made its debut. The AR-1 is similar in size to the HJ/AKD-10, but differs in shape. The diameter of the AR-1 is the same throughout its entire length. Two sets of control surfaces of the AR-1 are placed further apart, as opposed to immediately right next to each other in the case of the HJ/AKD-10. Instead of having a much larger set than the other, the sizes of two sets of control surfaces of the AR-1 are similar. The set of control surfaces at the front is swept instead of trapezoid-shaped like in the HJ/AKD-10, and they are closer to the tip of the missile. Although the developer has claimed that the AR-1 can be armed with several types of seekers, such as TV, Imaging IR (ImIR), and semi-active laser homing, only the TV guided version was shown to the public. The AR-1 cannot be guided by MMW radar, as many internet claims had erroneously reported, because the radars are too heavy to be carried by UAVs. Despite the developer's claim that the AR-1 can adopt different guidance systems, only one type of guidance has been confirmed, which is a combination of inertial guidance + satellite guidance (GPS was shown during its debut). Specifications of the AR-1 are:

  • Speed: 1.1 Mach
  • Weight: 45 kg (99 lb)
  • Warhead: 10 kg (22 lb)
  • Range: up to 10 km (6.2 mi)
  • Guidance: inertial + satellite guidance
  • Armor penetration: > 1,000 mm (39 in)
The AR-1 can be used against various targets from individual soldiers to tanks and small boats. At the 7th Zhuhai Airshow where the AR-1 made its debut, it was not displayed as an independent exhibit, but as a subsystem of the CH-3 UCAV (CH: Cai-Hong, meaning rainbow), whose developer is not the same as that who developed the AR-1 and thus could not provide many details about the AR-1. However, the developer of the AR-1, the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASTC) has claimed that the AR-1 missile can also be carried by platforms other than a UCAV. Staff of the CH-3 UCAV developer claimed the AR-1 can be armed with various warheads for different missions, but since the AR-1 was not their product, they did not know the exact types of warheads that have been developed. Judging from its appearance, it is safe to assume that the warhead arming the AR-1 is similar to that of the AKD-10.
