S-400 Triumf SAM Killer.

[Basel]

S-400 can be countered by firing barrage of long range rockets .... because it is so expensive
to field and therefore it is so easy to exhaust this capability. We just need rockets with heavy
radar signatures.

Pakistan can look for following system to counter any SAM threat, also YJ-12 has an ARM variant with 400 km range.

SY-400 / CM-400AKG

Edit:

Following systems can be acquired to negate Indian air defense & standoff strike capability.

Already got it.

Not talking about it, I was referring to SY-300/400 etc.

The U.S. recently sold hundreds of AMRAAMs to Pakistan which are very India-specific.
However, the induction of S-400 would be a huge boost to India's air defence. It will reduce the pressure of the IAF to focus on other jobs.
But, as I have learnt from Pakistan's multiple drone programs, there are fully developed and under-development systems that mimic the size and signature of jet fighters. These drones can play a part in defeating a credible SAM system.
Then again, the induction of these missiles will take several years. This gives Pakistan time to format a counter mechanism. Maybe an anti-SAM missile system?

The AMRAAM sale was awhile ago when Pakistan-US relations were at a higher level. US gave nearly any weapon system it wanted, at a discount or for gratis. With US disengaging from Afghanistan, this is no longer the case.

To counter any SAM system, Pakistan just need to upgrade its ARM capabilities.

Read the last line again. There is no new technology to be develop, just new method of employment. US careless about India. US might just give it to Pakistan for the right price and PR, since there is no new super sophisticated technology in this system.

So when you say "replicate" you mean copy, am I right? Do you think US will sell you any technology so Pakistan and China can simply "replicate" it? If you do, you overestimate Pakistan's friendship with the US. Pakistan is just better off relying on China or other suppliers.

US is considering doing nuclear deal with Pakistan, and is also selling Pakistan advance attack Helo's, so here goes your assumption that US-Pakistan relation are not good.

You won't understand, and I don't have time to explain you. Replicate has broader meaning here.

I WOULD REALLY LOVE TO SEE S 400S IN PAKISTAN . . .

 

[ConcealCarry]

Contrary to the idea being pushed here, these S-400 will primarily be used to safeguard major indian cities (economic hubs) against Pakistani ballistic/nuclear missile attacks.

 

[Godman]

S 400 will not be firing on the move too. Deployment, packing , unpacking and scooting all takes time, minutes not really seconds and obviously it wont take hours for babur to reach S400. it can shoot and scoot but if babur can keep S400 busy with itself and make the S400 running around in circles then it has done half of its job. about the quality of babur and tomahwak, thats another topic but generally assuming that Babur is low tech is ignorance

do you think they will deploy a s400 to battlefield without support?

S-400 has 4 missile in its list

9M96E - Range 40 Km , Alt - 20 Km , ARH Homing HTK System , Against Air Breathing Target and MRBM class Missile ( 1000 km Range ) Naval Variant
9M96E1 - Range 125 km , Alt - 30 km , ARH Homing HTK System ,Against Air Breathing Target and MRBM class Missile ( 1000 km Range ) Naval Variant
48N6DM - Range 250 km , Alt 30-35 Km , SAGG Guidance , Against IRBM Target with range of 3000 km ( 4.8 km/sec ) , Air Breathing Target
40N6 - Range 400-450 km , Alt - 185 km , ARH Guidance , Against IRBM target with range of 3500 km ( 5 km/sec ) , Air Breathing Target

As well as Akash+lrsam . so its almost invulnerable to any pak threat.

@AUSTERLITZ a question how long to reload the batteries once all the missiles are fired?

Not my fault you're not clear.

 

[vizier]

This should ring the bell to acquire potent sam systems at least for nuclear and airbases which are currently defenceless against bms. You cant shoot down ballistic missiles with aircraft.

S-400 claimed targetable speed is MACH 14. Although it is claim not demonstrated. It can target some Pakistani missiles, not all.
