Resembles the Israeli Arrow missile:

Looks like they bought off the shelve Israeli missile components to make there A-Sat.
 
First of all, thats the reaction of a private company and not the govt. Nobody listens to what small private company has to say. Moreover, theres a reason why it was conducted at just an altitude of 300km (go ahead call in incompetency and incapability to do higher altitude tests), it is so that debris falls back to earth ASAP (estimated by ISRO/DRDO to be within 3 weeks). China conducted it test at 800km and got under a lot of fire as debris will stay in orbit and around it for decades to come, even USA's last test was at an altitude of 270km.

USA has already come out in support of this test and supports talks for future space co-operation.
Just yesterday Russia invited India to participate in formulating laws and treaties relating to A-SAT weapons (one of the major reasons why India conducted the test, didnt want to be left out as happened in nuclear case)


The United States took aim at India’s anti-satellite weapons test with acting Pentagon chief Patrick Shanahan saying “We all live in space. Let’s not make it a mess.”


Pentagon is a small private company?

Dude, the problem with such stuff is they never disclose what precisely this is for.. plus india will never say, this is for china... except for agni, which has a range that it might need to circle pakistan a few times.. So, it will always seem to be pakistan focused, but one will never know.

However, your county won;t waste the resources on space tech at this time, as one sees it.
and that is why i said it has already delivered the message to concerned that indian anti satellite program is a threat for everyone

I don't think except China, anyone in this area sees India as a threat.

The pentagon guy is just looking for his next budget. The majority of the junk in space is either from them or Ruskies... we just brought out small humble tent in a big city full of their junk.. at least we will occupy a playground

Historically Pakistan has always responded to the challenges triggered by india including nuclear capability, missile capabilities and other lethal stuff. In this dimension may be Pakistan is already working , because when pakistan conducted two stage nuclear missile hataf-2 test a decade ago than at that time Pervez Musharraf said that our next step would be in space technology. so this has added just more fuel to arms race but for the time being indians deserve to cherish the moment
 
Ya ya.. say whatever after pollu ting eartg with co2 and plastic they care about space it seems
 
infect india was not in need of any such type of deterrent because its arch rival pakistan has only two or three satellites in space :) but if it is aimed for china or other powers.... then it has already ring the the bell
It is what has happened in feb and march that triggered them to test this. The eye in the sky was used to detect their intent so they are sending a message. Pakistan needs to do the same so that they know that pakistan can also render them blind if the need arise.
 
While F@$K India western hypocrisy knows no bounds :lol::lol:

doesn't that megalomaniac Elon Musk plan to like 3000 satellite or something:cheesy::cheesy:
