As is your IQ.So I guess 0 is a single digit. How about -5 CEP. Its also single digit.

ok Tests...
the actual Nuclear exchange will be far from these tests and simulations; All the successfull missile interceptions are done under carefully controlled conditions where a lot of uncertainities which will be present in an actual war are ignored. forexample the location from where the missile is known ; its dimensions are known.
In an indo-pak nuclear exchange it wont be simple as that.
the BMD will be overwhelmed by the mere number of warheads, there will be many fake launches.
and Pakistan's strategic forces will do everything to maximise the chances of success, we won't play by your ''tests''

well said! but if abm shield is able to stop atleast 50% of the missile dont you think it gives enough time to india to annihilate Pakistan in such a scenario with its nuclear triad?ok Tests...

Are you generally this thick or you are making an exception.So I guess 0 is a single digit. How about -5 CEP. Its also single digit.
I know , but the newer missiles usually incorporate the ability to evade from such systems by different means , surely the ABM systems have to be redesigned to counter that , right ? This is no variant to variant thing , of course . Well , it isn't only my opinion , that is the prevalent opinion amongst defense analysts/strategists . Read this for a change , a bit politically motivated , but explains the history of such U.S. systems fine . The Soviets were worse though , the Chinese well do not know where they stand .

medicine is my thing...but with my limited knowledge of math i can say that digit represents absolute value of a number so -5 = 5So I guess 0 is a single digit. How about -5 CEP. Its also single digit.
Dude a 23 year old opinion piece? the chinese, EU, Russsian, US, Indian and Israeli systems have evolved over the last 23 years since then. ABM systems nowadays are being designed (at least on the table) to intercept MIRVed and MARVed warheads. Quasi, cruise, unguided etc all are taken as threats. India doesnt need to go that far surely but over the years it will be designed to do that as well. I am not saying its a 100% sureshot thing - its like someone said - trying to hit a needle with a needle in the sky. Practise makes perfect in the end.

so above statement by you doesnt count as we already achieved cep less than that!)
These factors are not taken under consideration ;
by nature these factors vary substantially every time, IT is virtualy impossible
I am not sure if it is that high ; even in ''tests''well said! but if abm shield is able to stop atleast 50% of the missile dont you think it gives enough time to india to annihilate Pakistan in such a scenario with its nuclear triad?
dont you believe that having abm 50% success rate(assumption) would btr than having none at all.
BMD's are only to provide cover to key installations, ...I am not sure if it is that high ; even in ''tests''
nevertheless Having some protection is better than none; but developing a BMD is an expensive investment and it's counter measures are relatively easier to develop
You assume that one can ever be too careful . Well , that isn't true for one . How about you start using your exact logic for my country then ? How about saying the same for Pakistani missiles that they are developed after considering the opponent's defenses ?The main reason why I wouldn't want to have faith in the BMD's or feel threatened by it deployment is because of their low effectiveness against threats despite the astronomical costs , judging from other country's similar systems , of course . So , if they the world's powers after decades of R&D and insanely spent money do not have confidence in theirs , well so do not have I . These simulations have many variables predetermined and set , therein lies the problem , the real world of course is different .
Where is the lack of confidence in the countries that are developing them? I am surprised at this ridiculous assumption. The simulations and the live tests are what one calls R&D, it surely considers various probables and there is an underlying goal to conquer all those factors.
My basic argument is that a vast BMD system deployed in India -- if we can, and it will take decades more of research, testing and R&D will become more of a threat than a long range SLBM.

That's a faux pas, what is impossible? an interception of a hundred warheads? how did you figure that out?
The argument that you are putting forward is one of probability - something on the lines of firing a bunch of blanks in the midst of one live one - if that case scenario is probable then intercepting them is also probable. Generic statements such as "Pakistan strategic forces will try it's best to maximize it's chances of success" does not matter because the scientists designing the ABM systems are also trying their best to maximize their chances of success.
The factor that there will be numerous missiles fired at a country in war is the most basic of the factors that comes into consideration - countries who are developing BMD's are not doing it for stand alone missiles - they do it with the worst case scenario in mind.
And ofcource the counter measures will also be concentrated where the BMD is deployedBMD's are only to provide cover to key installations, ...
