Re: Pakistani Economic Stress Watch
Their infrastructure spending was heavy in the mid-late 1990s under badmash. They built multiple long intercity motorways then, back before India had anything like that. They imported some TFTA looking Adtranz Blue Tiger locos. Not particularly powerful, but cool name at least. Probably 50% reliabi...

I don't understand why the Army variation of QRSAM needed a slewable launcher? I'd have thought that a VLS launched missile will have a quicker reaction time + can handle multi-directional saturation attacks better. When designing air-defense systems, individual components, and concepts of employme...
