Can NASR Missile really put ‘Cold Water on Cold Start’ as claimed by Bajwa

[INDIAPOSITIVE]

Pakistan has developed NASR missile to thwart India from launching military offensive which is sometimes referred to as the Cold Start Doctrine (CSD). Cold Start doctrine is said to be an offensive plan of the Indian forces intended to quickly mobilise forces and subdue Pakistan before it even considers nuclear retaliation.

Pakistan knows it very well that it cannot match India in conventional warfare and to counter this it has developed tactical nuclear weapons. Pakistan claims that NASR can carry nuclear warheads of low yield with high accuracy. It is not like those long range nuclear warhead carrying ballistic missiles which are fired thousands of kilometres away with pre-designated target and carry massive warheads. Tactical nuclear weapons are for battlefield situation mainly aimed at thwarting incoming forces which are already at the borders and pushing to enter the enemy territory.

In 2018, Pakistan Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa had made a strange remark. He said, "Nasr has put cold water on cold start".

Reports say that Indian forces have been carrying out military exercise simulating fighting war under a Nuclear environment to provide additional counter battlefield weapon to Nasr. India has developed QR-SAMs which can provide sufficient battle field air defence. It will be mobile and will move with the Strike Corps to give level of layered aerial defence against SRBM like Nasr .

QRSAM or Quick Reaction Surface-to-Air Missile is a missile developed by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) in association with Bharat Electronics Limited and Bharat Dynamics Limited for the Indian Army. The missile is all-weather, all-terrain missile with electronic counter measures against jamming by aircraft radars.The missile can be mounted on a truck and is stored in a canister. QRSAM uses solid-fuel propellant and has a range of 25-30 km.

Pakistan also fears that India might also put together Cruise Missile Defence System (CMDS) which along with QR-SAM will provide India's Strike Corps a layered battlefield Aerial Defence systems against cruise missiles like Babur, Raad and Nasr SRBMs. QRSAM Air Defence System is a critical component in India's "Cold Start" Doctrine.


What Pakistan should be wary of?

What Pakistan must keep in mind is that India has fairly developed secondary strike capability. India has ballistic missiles with nuclear warhead that can be launched from submarines in short notice. Pakistan can rest assured that any use of nukes- tactical or strategic - the retribution will be swift, severe and devastating threatening its very existence.

A tactic that India can use is to get closer to populated areas in Pakistan which would force Islamabad to think of collateral damage if a nuke device is used in its own territory. Indian Army can use this tactic to negate Pakistani nukes by inserting divisons in densely populated Pakistani regions like Punjab. If Pakistan resorts to battlefield nukes then it would effectively endanger its own population also making Pakistan lose its status and face in international society and will create a soft spot for India.

Ok, OneIndia.com thanks for being so worried about us Pakistanis.

Anything else?

Another troll thread guys do not lets these trolls have a troll bash things are going to be changing around here very soon.

I like it when Indians pose a question and then answer THAT question and then pat themselves on the back.

They believe in the conjectures but not the TRUTH, as per our KITAP...

They won't stop till they make a BD out of Pak..

indians are overlooking the actual problem that can potentially ruin them. if india tries the cold start doctrine by trying to do limited offensives with one of those massive "shock n awe" type of forces on multiple front erroneously thinking that Pakistan would some how be on teh defensive, they will have to use almost all of their entire army inluding armor and artillery to bring about that sort of a "show n awe" result. But when Pakistan uses the NASR missile against such fronts, well, the proof is in the pudding...india's offensive will be brought to a grueling dead end AND india would have virtually no army LEFT to defend itself with, leaving india completely open for Pakistan to simply march in and do as it wishes. the ONLY thing that would prevent Pakistan from going deep inside india at that point would india launching all of its nuclear assets. But that would not stop Pakistan from basically turning table if Pakistan chooses to take limited territory away from india, enough territory to force india to come to the table but not enough for them to risk a nuclear war.

indian military strategists really need to go back to school and ask for their money back.

As per the Indian Defense Review articles written by ex service men, the top grads in India's military academies opt for the logistics and procurement corps!!! Clever fellows...

After Pakistan launches, nuclear armed Nasrs on Indian IBGs, and India retaliates with strategic and tactical nuclear strikes through out Pakistan, including its army, airforce, Naval and nuclear infrastructure.

With what army, Pakistan will occupy any land ?

90% of india's nuclear arsenal is aircraft borne, not missile mounted. Pakistan would be launching NASR missiles with our own strategic nuclear warheads ready to launch at a moment's notice. oh and, 95 percent of our strategic nuclear arsenal is missile mounted and mobile by the way and we ARE the 3rd largest nuclear weapons state in the world. We're talking a thousand or more, not a couple of hundreds. by the time india manages to ready a single missile to launch or before a single su30 would even reach the runway to take off, all of indian cities would already be under our nuclear firestorm and getting eradicated.

so good luck...

And destroyed by our BM/CM accordingly @Osiris

Your information is severely outdated.

You can have them ready at moments notice or not, does not change anything. After you launch your first nuclear strike, you will not be left with an army to occupy any land.

on contrary, you have serverely underestimated our own nuclear prowess. by the time india manages to ready a single missile to launch or before a single su30 would even reach the runway to take off, all of indian cities would already be under our nuclear firestorm and getting eradicated.
