PAF Reveals Loitering Smart Munitions

[Windjammer]

@Windjammer where is Y-III ? Are you talking about this YX-69 ?

Yes It's a Typo

Apart from KaGeM-V3
Pakistan Air Force in it official PR revealed integration of various disruption technologies in its inventory including Turkish Y-III Killer Drone and KaGeM V3 Loitering Munition.
Notice instead of the usual catapult launched versions, the Y-III is a wheeled version ...meaning it's a RATO killer.

So these are not our development but Turkish.

Being produced as joint projects.

Interesting concept that PAF could look into once it can built is own mini-jet engines - ie REK with Jet Powered propulsion ( effectively turning them into cruise missiles .. ).

Powered JDAMs could attack targets on land and sea, deploy naval mines, or even act as decoys, over long ranges.

The requisite engine is also available (Lahab-80). I think this is a very cost effective solution.

So we can have 3 classes of REK:

- unpowered: ~100km
- rocket boosted: 190-220km
- Jet powered: 550km
