Pakistan successfully tests night launch of surface to surface ballistic missile Ghaznavi: ISPR

[xyx007]

Randian Doti already wet after this test, Gangoois are doomed and dont have any anti-BM defence system on LoC to save their army from this Missle Hellfire. There you go another fake plan attack is cooking but this time Gangoo will get a big surprise from us, he ever imagined ....

The ignorance, immaturity, ingratitude and self entitlement of posters on this forum is breathtaking.

Sir ab

Abdali also guided missile with very little CEP lower than 5 to 10 meters.

Abdali is unguided but but Abdali-1 is guided @Markhoor

Actually, quite a good development. However, I doubt it was Ghaznavi!

In fact Pak has been working on Iskander type missile for sometime.. and this might be that. There goes gangu mijjile defence!

With dipressed trajactory and hypersonic speed... the system is a vital component of National Defence.

Indeed, kids/fanboys/I-hate-army crowd would like to belittle so many of achievements and needs that keep the very same lot free so that they can post cr*p on AsocialMedia/PDF ....

Testing on nightime is a good give away.. keep us all guessing. Road mobile and being able to deploy anywhere near the border from GB to deserts of Thar... this type is more important than MRBMs in a way.

Perhaps, too early to say that there is change in Full Spectrum Deterence Capability... however, this would not be unsafe to speculate that the tested missile is a component of overall System.

Regardless, I doubt it that it was Ghaznavi... or more precisely... Ghaznavi in its original form... it might be an evolution/innovation of this platform with added Iskander type capabilities.

Before, the 'lot' start overwhelming us with their 'enlightened' views... take a pause and think... if NK can develop such a capability then why cann't Pak?

Well, done SPD! Well done Paks!

Just when the Chinese delegation left... we conduct nightime test of 'Ghaznavi'. Nice!

The clueless brigade will keep showing themselves having no idea of development at all. Pakistan never shared the true capability of our Defence weapons hence, the element of surprise is always there like we delivered as promised.

The key points as you highlighted are like deploying in night times, validating night operation, why the Ghaznavi to say, to be deployed anywhere and above all sophistication of system itself. why would Military spent lot of time, money & energy if it wasn't valued in regard to system. In fact the timing is crucial and so is the test and enemy can keep guessing. Shouldn't I say that there goes the kind of Missile Defence System by the kinds of hypersonic Ghaznavi that carries multiple type of warheads up-to 290kms (claimed range & who knows) and may be, I am looking at S-400 going down.

Easier said than done.

I got out.

Out where?

All upgraded no Abdali unguided left, In our inventory all ballistic missile are guided and very accurate.

 

[SABRE]

Really ? Ghaznavi ?

Do we still have that missile, If I remember correctly few years back there was talk of dis-continuing ghaznavi missile as it does not offer any strategic edge in current scenarios. I think the argument was that it has Very limited range, Lighter payload and induction of standoff weapons made it redundant.

just A glorified artillery shell if u ask me

Anyway congratulations on successful test

Edited PS : As @pakistanipower pointed out, I might be confusing abdali with Ghaznavi. Yes It might be Abdali SRBM that was rumored to be phased out.

Ghaznavi offers a significant operational and strategic edge. On the operational levels, it can help target the enemy's hardened counter-force assets situated further away from the borders (but within 250km range radius). On strategic levels, they are quite useful against the enemy's counter-value targets like the nearby cities and towns in Gujrat and Rajasthan states (Perhaps also Indian Punjab).

Abdali has not been discontinued but assigned a different role. There appeared to be some lag in its development in the beginning but for some reason, we continued to improve on it instead of abandoning it [perhaps because it was the first child (alongside HATF-I)?]. It started out as a strategic weapon, even though it was nothing more than a short-range technological demonstrator at its birth from engineering and scientific perspective, and was essentially designed to respond to India's Prithvi development. But once requisite improvements (especially improved gudiance system) were achieved it was pulled back from the strategic role and reassigned the operational role, i.e. for counter-force targeting of nearby enemy airbases, barracks, garrisons, etc ... Abdali might work in tandem with Nasr TNW. While Nasr can target the advancing Indian forces Abdali can ensure they have nowhere to retreat or fallback to or to ensure that no reinforcements can follow.

AFAIK the only missile to be discontinued was Ghauri-III.

thanks sir

Ababeel-2 test kartey . ye kiya kara .

 

[MystryMan]

whats the advantage associated with making such a short range (300km) ballistic missile (what i know the BM goes out to very high altitude if the distance is small like this then whats the advantage)?

Simple, if you want to fry enemy at 200 to 300 kms you can't fire shaheen or Ghauri missile you need shorter range missiles.....there are limitations of usage and range you can decrease range but not more than 20 to 30%....Understand?

anti S400

This is the most important aspect which people here are missing.

When a senior responsible person says that no Anti Ballistic Missile system currently in operation, or under procurement in the neighborhood can engage it, then it means something.

It means that S-400 system can't be put within 250 kms of Pakistani borders. This missile is for destroying the ABM systems of India..

If I understand clearly, this will be the first type of missile used on missile defense systems of India based on credible location information.. once all nearby defense systems are taken out and Indian skies are open for more sophisticated long range missiles and PAF.. the second phase of air raids will start.. This missile is not meant for destroying other assets of Indian Army.. for which we posses other missiles which can carry heavy payloads..

For S-400 we have anti-Radiation missiles, Ra'ad from air and Babur etc from ground....S-400 can't do much.

My understanding is similar after the tweet. The message seems to be clear that we have exactly what's required to take down your ABM systems including future purchases (S400).
