The only Missile that NESCOM is concerned with is Babur. Lets see what the Navy says about it. The news will be out in a day or two.

My guess is,,,, naval babur because it is a nescom product. Intact, it is the only guess

They said long range.

What is the minimum long range for Navy?

Yaraaa can our frigates even use the Babur (be it a naval version) to anything close to its stated range (700-750 Kms) ? Do our vessels even have the capability of detecting & then guiding it that far out ?

Naval version of Babur , Babur II , is believed to be 1500km in range....

I hear you ! But what I'm asking is can our surface vessels even lock onto a target thats 700 kms away, never mind one that is 1500 kms away ?

Babur is used for pre assigned fixed targets,you don't need long range radars for that...
Plus Babur is a fire and forget missile,wont need continuous guidance from the ship.

Bro if our Dassault Mirage III can fire Ra'ad then why not our vessel can fire Babur?

Not an expert on guidance system, I believe CMs are guided differently, unlike other missiles, they use maps.

Pakistan is the worst country in military hardware crnsorship-

Pakistan don't have any radar with range beyond 450km..

Babur is guided by GPS/Beidou since it rely on TERCOM

It could have very well been the Naval version of Babur missile. It was quite close to development and was nearly ready the last time I was updated few months back. If in any case this was not Babur, then just a fact, Babur's Naval variant is closer to development than you think!
