India joins ‘satellite killer’ club after missile test success

[Hamza913]

Making satellites is something that even university students wll do. Launching them in space is real job. And shooting them down is at another level.

But apparently shooting down PAF aircraft or making toilets is too much for you guys.

I misread the thread tittle as serial killer club

How much do you wanna bet that it was an agni5 test but it malfunctioned and ran into the perfectly normal working weather satellite so they decided to capitalize and call it a "satellite killer test" instead of getting another rotten egg in their faces!!!

 

[SorryNotSorry]

Well, one thing is now confirmed.

- Indian can shoot down stationary targets, in near space. -

- Shooting down moving targets few thousands feet over their own territory is impossible for them.

Satellites aren’t stationary. The word satellite itself suggests it orbits something.
Orbital speeds can easily be 15000-17000 mph or 25000 km/h. The lower ones are very fast.

sunny we know more than you do.

here this is where india shot down the sat and there was a US spy plane in this very area providing tracking to the missile lol world is laughing at India for this stunt and claiming it to be their own activity. hahaha. USA tracked the target and provided the missile with targeting data. lol. even a noob like me know the latest coordinates of your latest launched remote sensing sat.

Location of US plane which provided missile tracking. USA did it to make Modi win elections lol.

I don’t think so. The USA just wants to be the biggest Gunda/Badmash in every neighborhood. That’s all.

I don’t believe these Indians. They got their rear handed to them and now Modi is trying to score cheap points with this insignificant satellite shooting.

Pakistan should make most of this opportunity and work on its own satellite killer missile if we already haven’t. We have every justification to do so.

When China shot a satellite back on 1999 the US reported the validity. I don't hear them confirming this. This is coming out of Modi's Ganga breath mouth

 

[Great Janjua]

I don't know why my fellow countrymen are wanting a similar response to this test. what is India going to achieve by doing this **** all let's not **** up our plant even more

Lt. Gen. David D. Thompson, vice commander of US Air Force Space Command, confirmed the test took place and said the US was aware of the possibility that India would conduct it because of several announced flight bans and other information

Despite me not making technical, Indians still had problem.
I in simple terms try to describe both Geostationary and orbital Satellites.
Every sensible person knows that Satellites are launched on a specific co-ordinates assigned.
If it is geostationary or not.

Whatever, I'm done trying to understand what you are talking about.

The point is India have ASAT weapon capability, we have tested it successfully. We think it's a big achievement for India, ISRO and DRDO. We decided on hitting the LEO satellite because it is safer as these shattered parts will easily get vaporized once they start descending towards earth without causing trouble to nearby satellites.

Cheers.

pakistanis shouldn’t freak out you don’t even have satellites lol.

For all the butthurt Pakistanis crying in this thread

"Lt. Gen. David D. Thompson, vice commander of US Air Force Space Command, confirmed the test took place and said the US was aware of the possibility that India would conduct it because of several announced flight bans and other information.


The "vice commander of US" ...... "confirmed the test took place" and "US was aware of the possibility that India would conduct it..."

interesting, confuse and contradictory.

confirmed = for sure,
aware of the possibility = not sure

 

[Tauren Paladin]

Only 300 km lol? most satellites are above this orbit.
