Pakistan tests a new cruise missile. Can it hit inside India?

[Chanakyaa]

The real math is :

RAAD1, RAAD2, H2, H4, REKs, Extended standoff muntions (tested last year and show below) Vs Barak-8, S400, SPYDER

AND:
Brahmos Vs Pakistani SAMs.

You can safely take out Nirbhay because as things stands, its a failed/under development project. Besides, its not even in the same category as its Indian attempt to catch up on Pakistan Babur series of CMs.

Food for thought :

1. Where were the Pakistani SAMs when Marines spend 40+ minutes in Pakistani Airspace
2. Where were the pakistani SAMs where Indian Mirages destroyed the "trees" ?

If they cant intercept larger and slower moving helicopter / Jets where is the question of Subsonic Nirbhay or 100% Non Interceptable Brahmos or Shaurya ?

Raad II is not a new Missile.
It was shown on Pak day Parade back in 2017.

View attachment 607214 View attachment 607215 View attachment 607216

What was tested is different from what was displayed in 2017 esp. The tail section.

500 million of starving niggers and still asking about more rafales.....
In 27 feb your front line fighter was mig-21 whose pilot was abducted....

Reminds of this "We will eat Grass but build the Bomb" ...

Babur is a turbojet powered cruise missile.
It requires liquid fuel. Solid propellants are only used in rockets , ballistic missiles etc.
Babur essentially has a miniaturized aircraft engine.

Sir I think Nirbhay has Solid Fuel. It is cruise missile

Where was Spyder when Mirages bombed IA installations???

And we didn't had any SAM system in 2011 which could shoot down stealth aircrafts.

I hope we test our Thunders Block-3 and Ra'ad against Turkish S-400 systems to identify the systems weak points for use against India in any future conflict. I also sincerely hope we test the Qatari Rafale against Thunders, I am under the impression that PAF already flies Qatari Rafale and have better hands on experience than IAF Pilots.

India Migs Chased your F16s back... Im yet to find a single Pakistani who doent think and ask.. WHy.. Why not a single man in cockpit like Abhinandan chased Indian Mirages on 26th.. like Abhi did on 27th !!

But the question is, would you be upset with.. loosing a pilot chasing Americans...out of your borders or....get delighted that they spend 40 minutes and you do nothing.....something which happened on 26th Feb 2019 as well.

And...Spyders did work, fortunately it was friendly fire.

So, on 26 neither the Pakistani Pilots nor the Pakistani SAMs responded.. while BOTH did on 27th.. for India.

If it has a turbojet, then it cannot be powered by solid fuel. All ground (and sea/sub launched) have a solid fuel booster rocket that is jettisoned once cruise altitude and speed have been attained.
Cruise missiles are usually subsonic and low observable. Using a small turbojet/turbofan allows for longer range but at slower speeds.

Abhi chased because he didn't knew where he was going as his plane was being jammed. His wingman knew this and he turned back. If he knew where he was going he would have turned away too like his other fellows. PAF didn't followed IAF package because they were aware that on the other side they would be ambushed.

Mirages also didn't penetrated the Pakistan airspace enough for SAMs to shoot. They just came 4-5 kms in lobbed the SOWs and went back. Just like PAF mirages did.

1. The Indians were expecting a retaliation and therefore prepared to engage

2. The IAF attack on Balakot took time to assess and IAF fighters had either already crossed back into Indian controlled airspace or never crossed it to begin with, by the time PAF fighters were in engagement range.

3. Abhi was pulled into a trap and his coms jammed - he didn’t realize he was in Pakistani airspace.

4. Indian use of Air Defence missiles and shooting down their own chopper is more a sign of panic and lack of preparedness than anything positive.

One JF 17 locked into your fleeing Mirages
Chased away? Dude we never crossed LOC. U tried to chase us by passing through LOC and your Mig 21 got shot down

But it is more than the twice population of Pakistan.... Maybe in reincarnation....
They will find a better India.

 

[Basel]

We have ordered 216 SCALP-EG from France, we need to order another batch of of 250 missiles along with 54 Rafales.

Turkey have offered SOM series of ALCMs which includes SOM-J specially built for 5th gen bird, While CM-400AKG and C-802AKG (land attack version) are available to PAF now, so upgraded RA'AD is just another addition to what PAF already have.

The stories of 65 ( see senior's cafe ) , Gen Aziz on Kargil and reveleations of OBL raid force me to have a gut feeling that when it comes to pakistan.. you need to wait for a decade to get the REAL truth.

Neither you nor me can say what happened except for a few confusions like :

0. No Retaliation on 26th Feb / No SAMs Operational , despite the LOC being HOT.
1. "Doosra Banda"
2. "No F16s used" but AMRAAM found
3. Only "Trees hurt" yet PMIK saying "Even Bigger attack than Balakot"

Summary : wait till 2030.
