RAAD 2

[khanasifm]

Has raad 2 overall layout changed ??

Range extended to 600km

But looks like layout also changed and looks different ??

 

[khanasifm]

Compared to old raad

 

[Zephyrus]

Yes, raad 2 looks more like a miniaturized babur

major difference is X tail fins, and may be more rounded fuselage for carrying JF-17, can't sure about rounded fuselage but definitely X tail for carrying JF-17

Na Babur has a different fin arrangement then this

 

[khanasifm]

Looks like 4 fins like barber

Last time it’s range was 550km now 600 km with 450kg warhead so what is total launch weight bow ? Last time it’s had 1100kg

Raad 1 was 350km range which was improved to 550km in raad 2 and now another 50km improvement assuming total weight remained same at least

Probably a more efficient Turbojet Engine along with a slightly larger but lighter air-frame

 

[Foxtrot Delta]

It seems more aerodynamic in shape that would alone add alot of miles to its range.

Also seems smaller may be this one carries plutonium based warheads and old raad 1 carry's uranium warheads. That would save some weight too.

Hopefully the next version will be more Stealthy in shaping; something like the MBDA design

Truth to be told, I think university students in US can create somewhat stealthy composite body of missiles using University lab only. unfortunately aerospace technology is so primitive in Pakistan that a premier defense research organization is struggling to create modern missiles body.

Pakistan needs super computers to crunch down serious data and create models high tech applications

Storm Shadow?

Sad but true. NY High Schools already teach 3D Scanning and Printing. They could probably come up with a decent air frame, if they had the right materials. Pakistan should look into getting a soon to be decommissioned Chinese Super Computer and get Chinese experts to teach them how to use it for R&D, especially if Pakistani Scientists can secure research funding from foreign companies and universities to do joint projects (such as Medicine) and fund the costs of the supercomputer. The Air Force and defense contractors could use the supercomputer during the down times between the civilian scientists work.

Storm Shadow?

Actually its a new design for the Tempest Project

 

[Ultima Thule]

Storm Shadow?

This is not storm shadow but future stealthy Cruise Missile project for UK 6th gen jet TEMPEST

Truth also is that Things created in a Lab do not always work in Real world.
