Pakistan Successfully Tested Babur 3 Cruise Missile launch from Submarine : ISPR

[Dalit]

Here comes another one........ .........lol........indianium delirium............these retarded delusional fantasist honestly believe they invented everything and are responsible for the inventions in Western & Russian science and technology........lol......

indian logic:

Pakistan will NEVER EVER become a nuclear weapons state with or without Chinese assistance. It is impossible to do so.

Pakistan will NEVER EVER have the capability to have a triad of nuclear delivery systems.

Anyone see the pattern here from the incretinous creatures... lol..........

I love it how they have been in denial all these years. Downplaying Pakistan's capabilities and strengths. Yet, 70 years have gone by and all these Indians have done is talk. First they denied our nuke capability. We slapped them in the face so hard they were in disbelief. Then, we were somehow incapable of producing delivery systems. We slapped them in the face again. State of the art ballistic and cruise missiles were produced. Then, we were incapable of building our second strike capability. Today, we have dispelled that myth as well. All they can do now is argue and lick their wounds. They stand disgraced and red faced arguing like a silly toddler. We are enjoying their frustration and disbelief.

Today we are owning them left and right with CPEC and our defense capabilities. All they can do is burn in anger and comfort themselves with lies. Today is a very special day. One our grandchildren will cherish for a long time to come. Don't underestimate the significance of this enormous game changing development. It puts Pakistan in the top tier bracket. It secures the future of our land and children to a whole new level.

Surely a horizontal launch is more challenging than vertical launch.

Not really.

 

[war&peace]

it's a submarine launched version which is some sort of very sophisticated complex in technological aspects. guessing the future versions will be of greater in range...

It can be due to the reduction in diameter to fit the existing torpedo tubes i.e. 533 mm and also a lot of energy is consumed during the launch from the horizontal tubes and reaching the surface. This will be improved once submarines with VLS become available. Though a better engine and design can also result in range extension.

Like 0 posts in the first 30 pages crazy?

I just read one of your post and it gave me the impression that you are clearly not happy with something. The amount of posts does not define your craziness, I usually like your posts but this time you seem a little disturbed.

been said. NUKE CAPABLE... so it's not less a ton

warhead weight?

 

[Taimoor Khan]

It is a generic statement, issued for strategic tests every time. The NOTAMs and Coastal Warnings are much more precise and always authentic.

Rawalpindi - January 9, 2017:
Pakistan conducted its first successful test fire of Submarine Launched Cruise Missile (SLCM) Babur-3 having a range of 450 kilometers, from an undisclosed location in the Indian Ocean

And yes I have read the notam which was issued I believe last week and as far as I remember, it expired.

Unless, people in ISPR don't know the difference between Arabian Sea and Indian ocean, which I don't think they are that dumb, as it stands, Indian ocean was the source of launch.

 

[Leo~Calicratis]

yeah, it's nuclear capable and Babur-III SLCM is landed on planet earth to fulfill Pakistan's nuclear triad's sea-leg.
and, there's some other jobs to be done. those are SLBMs and ICBMs

Does this mean Pakistan can have a sea based nuclear detterent? Can you put a nuclear warhead on it? If this is done, the only thing left I think is working towards ICBM.

 

[Areesh]

Just considering possibilities: did they explicitly say it was a PN submarine?

Do they need to say that? Isn't it obvious?

technically, YES!

Awesome news. Historic moment here.

 

[Penguin]

So with the upcoming 8 Yuan based export submarines which hold can hold up to 18 torpedoes or missiles internally Pakistan could realistically have up to 96 SLCM from those subs alone factoring each sub having 6 torpedoes each. They could also very likely come with dedicated vertical launch systems which would allow much greater capacity and size of missile. Im not sure if its easier to add a nuclear warhead to a Chinese SLCM or use Pakistani SLCMs in a Chinese sub. But if they use a Chinese one they would come with 3000km range from the start and very cheap prices if bundled

Which would then be incapable of self-defence or any other type of action but SLCM launch.....

If it's not a PN submarine, shouldn't it be the cause of even more concern for the Indian folks???

 

[razgriz19]

Babur v2 range is 700 km ,,, Babur SLCM has 450 km range ,, any senior member explain the reduction in range,,, answer welcome...

My guess would be reduction in length of the missile (fuel tank). They have to be able to fit that thing in agosta's launch tubes. And they would've had to decrease the diameter as well, and the missile is stored inside a capsule so the water doesn't get inside.
That would definitely take away the range.

true. But I don't think that is the case. Augusta90b can fire babur CM and I don't think this is something surprising for us. In coming days and weeks situation would get clear further.

Our resident Naval officer claims.. the first test was conducted 2 years back.

Even then. For one thing, you'ld need more than 3 boats. You need about 5 to have 1 at sea at all times.

Wow ...you are still calling this an imaginary victory even after the official confirmation...that's really sad and do you really think that Pakistan acquired this capability today..wow...if you think it takes sometime to prepare when I told you I had knowledge. Perhaps you will be sane enough to know that not all information especially related to defence is available on wikipedia..your only source of info.

I'm calling your post an imaginary victory. Not the apparent launch. But if that's too fine a distinction for you ...
I've been saying (and this is verifiable at this forum) that in principle any SSK can launch SLCMs. I've also stated that I found no information confirming PN has the ability for encapsulated launch. I'm sorry to rain on your parade, but what is so sad is your need to somehow make this a 'See, I was right all along' when you don't even are able to actually understand what I said. That you still feel inferior about that is evidenced by your wikipedia-stab, which is not only blatantly and verifiably wrong but also childish.

I congratule Pakistan. I feel sorry for you @war&peace.
