Pakistan Tested NASR missile

[The Deterrent]

Why dont they put actual warheads in missiles to achieve a proper shock and awe impression over the enemies of Pakistan.

Pakistan has adequate 'demonstrations' planned for this purpose, if God forbid that time comes.
Edit: For now, Nasr is a non-conventional weapon system.

Newbie question. There is no war head seperation. Wouldn't it be easier for ABM to target whole missile than a small warhead.?

Good question. While that's true, there is no easy way around this i.e. jettisoning the warhead and still expecting it to evade and guide itself to the target.

Last test of nasr. There was war head seperation or not? Video is blurry any senior would shed some light.
Video says warhead seperation so?

NASR carries both conventional and non conventional munitions. No one is asking to test it with tactical nuke, just demo something similar like this:

This is fabulous ... have you noticed that missile speed was so much that they had to show video at a reduced speed ... where as in case of babur it was visible even at normal camera speed at the time of hitting the target ... i am sure it speed is somewhere around 4 mach which is general speed of other solid fuel based air to air missiles ...

The small booster used today to give missile extra speed and resulting additional range.
