What's new

SHAHEEN III actual range 5000 KM ????

Secondly their are massive rumours going on in Army about an ICBM getting tested soon.

To give whom a message? If you ask me ICBM is long over due and more so since the recent US attack in Baluchistan.
 
First its range is not less than 3500 KM. Secondly their are massive rumours going on in Army about an ICBM getting tested soon.
ICBM was first ever tension developed between Musharraf and AQ.
 
It has already been taken care of..Though Indian test wasn't successful but, nonetheless, they are working
Yeah According to Unnamed Informed Sources of Blog Writer over Indian Govt Agency.Nevertheless it tested 11 times out of which 9 are Successful Tests. Its Better Rate than ThAAD which Failed Six times over 15 tests.
Nevertheless Now India Join MTCR We will Get Sensitive Materials and Guidance Technology From Member countries
 
Increasing range is not the problem. Add second and third stage booster and missile can fly halfway around the world. Maintaining missile accuracy and the guidance system is the real challenge.
 
Is this the same THAAD with a 100% hit success rate:D?

@SvenSvensonov You are Focusing On Engineering and manufacturing phase of the Thaad

Analysis of flight data is continuing to determine the cause of the Lockheed Martin Theater High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) missile test failure on 22 March.

A THAAD prototype failed to hit its ballistic missile target - the second failure in two intercept attempts. During the test, which took place at the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico, the missile flew past the target after its in-flight command and control functions failed to operate, says the US Army.

It was then destroyed so that missile debris would not land outside the test range.

Programme officials are trying to determine whether missile components failed or whether the THAAD ground-based radar malfunctioned. The test was the fifth for the THAAD.

This week the Army is scheduled to hold another test for the Theater High Altitude Air Defense (THAAD) program.

The program is designed to shield U.S. troops in the field by destroying enemy missiles at high altitudes, ramming them at high speeds.

After years of development by its contractor, Lockheed Martin Corp., and a $3.9 billion investment by taxpayers, the program has failed six-consecutive tests and aborted another after the target missile went off course.

With future spending, this program could squander an additional $15 billion in taxpayer funds without showing any signs of success.

With recent concerns of Chinese missiles targeting the United States, increased pressure has been placed on fielding successful missile defense.

Unfortunately, THAAD is not that system. While TCS recognizes THAAD is a program in development and cannot be expected to work perfectly every time, the system’s excessive failures demonstrate that it is inherently flawed and should be cancelled.

Whatever the threat may be, throwing taxpayer money at programs that don’t work is an idea that is off target.

History of THAAD Test Failures




    • May 24, 1999 -- The Army aborted the seventh test for the THAAD system, after its target missile went off course.
    • May 11, 1999-- Lockheed Martin Corp. fired the president of its Astronautics division following highly publicized failures of its rocket operations including the THAAD system. The announcement came one week after the corporation conducted an internal review of its missile program.
    • March 29, 1999 -- The THAAD system launched and missed its target for a sixth-consecutive time. Defense spokespersons blamed a thruster nozzle that blew off during flight.
    • May 12, 1998 -- The THAAD system failed a fifth-consecutive flight test. A booster rocket misfired and the missile lost control.
    • March 6, 1997 -- The THAAD missile test failed for the fourth time in a row to hit its target.
    • July 1996 -- After not being able to locate its target during its third-consecutive unsuccessful test, the THAAD system self-destructed.
    • March 22, 1996 -- The THAAD system failed in its second-consecutive attempt to intercept its target, as the missile was unable to follow its in-flight command and control orders.
    • December 13, 1995 -- THAAD’s failed first live-target test

Your $170 Billion Missile Defenses Don’t Work

Don’t tell me you’re surprised

On Friday, July 5, a long-range ballistic missile blasted into the skies from the U.S. military’s remote Pacific Ocean test site at Kwajalein Atoll. Meanwhile, a second missile launched from its silo on the West Coast with instructions to intercept and destroy it. Somewhere along the way, the second missile failed. “An intercept was not achieved,” the Pentagon stated abruptly.

The price tag for just this test: a cool $214 million.

The failure is yet another major setback for a missile defense program projected to cost $170 billion between 1983 and 2017 and intended to protect the United States from a nuclear attack. The missed intercept also risks delaying further tests, and worse, calls into question one of the Pentagon’s primary claims about whether its missile defense system can really work at all.

The test involved a 140-pound CE-1 “kill vehicle” equipped with maneuvering thrusters, which should propel it towards an incoming ballistic missile before the interceptor separates from the thrusters and physically collides with the target. The two missiles approach each other at a combined speed approaching 15,000 miles per hour. Such an intercept is a complex task, to say the least.

We can expect ICBM test soon and yes I agree with you on USA part
 
What is the perfect time by the way ?? when Alien fire ICBM from chaand sitaray ?
No bhai...

When India launched nuclear tests; we responded in days.

We already had the nuclear capabilities but it was well hidden from the world and we showcased it at the perfect moment.
 
@Zarvan bro lets say the range is 10000 miles------does it even matter to you?----why you are hell bent to know the range in inches in every other thread---------------take a break:-)-----btw what is the loiter time of su30 with and without
drop tanks:D
 
We should just make the 10,000 range missile and then focus on space program

Three external boosters on shaheen should extend the range easily which fall off over the sea
