It seems that Afghan soldiers called for fire after "Pakistan Army along with militants fired at them." Afghans have always said that Pakistani Army and militants operate together.

k100/ks-172 is dead.russians held a competition for developing an ultra long range missile between novator and tactical missiles corporation jsc,in which the design of tactical missiles corporation came on top and its export version is now called rvv-bd.it will have a range of 200km. russia is signatory to MTCR so the range is limited well below 300km range under the mtcr guidelines. an rvv-bd can kill such a bird easily

Its a Y-9 or Y-8 with nose modified.

Google says the ZDK-03 is based on the Y-8, which "borrows" from the Antonov An-12. 1960's Antonov vintage which has been progressively tweaked by the Chinese.

Could the US/NATO strike be a 'quid pro quo' for the Haqqani hit on the US Embassy in Kabul? Intriguing argument- amongst others made here by Tariq Ali - a well known writer of ? origin

http://battleland.blogs.time.com/2011/1 ... -pakistan/

Quote:

So why do it? Was it intended as a provocation? Is Obama seriously thinking of unleashing a civil war in an already battered country? Some commentators in Islamabad are arguing this but it's unlikely that Nato troops will occupy Pakistan. Such an irrational turn would be difficult to justify in terms of any imperial interests. Perhaps it was simply a tit-for-tat to punish the Pakistani military for dispatching the Haqqani network to bomb the US embassy and Nato HQ in Kabul's ‘Green Zone' a few months back.

The reaction from the US sounds conciliatory but stops short of being conciliatory enough. It is almost like yes, they deserved it

After the last years blockade, the US would definitely have established alternate lines for logistics. Routing through central Asia may be more expensive but I guess the system is in place.

Not sure whether bakhsheesh will follow the jhapad this time round.

Just 30% of the supplies (Non destructive supplies, destructive come from air, rest from Russia) come from Pakistan. They have been progressively taking off the pressure. However, they don't want the NDS to come from Russia alone because of the BMD row etc. Also, Russians will up their demand once Pakis close down. It will be interesting to see how US manages this.

nits · Post by **nits** » 30 Nov 2011 19:57

Slightly going overboard with imagination...

US should work with india and get POK freed up; set transit point from freed POK to Afganistan and get moving

manum · Post by **manum** » 30 Nov 2011 20:14

how POK will be connected to afghanistan...I think you better imagine Balochistan to be freed, it'll help entire planet earth...

nits · Post by **nits** » 30 Nov 2011 21:41

was referring to this map; here it shows POK and Afgan connected

member_20069 · Post by **member_20069** » 30 Nov 2011 21:56

This would result in killing 2 birds with one stone. We get back illegally occupied Kashmir by Porkis and U.S gets land route to Afghanistan.

Whether Baluchistan is freed or we get back POK, Porkistan disintegration is a done deal:)

Lalmohan · Post by **Lalmohan** » 30 Nov 2011 21:57

IIRC the route over the wakhan coridoor is not particularly conducive to heavy vehicular traffic

manum · Post by **manum** » 30 Nov 2011 22:09

@ nits

I am sorry, you are correct, POK does touch Afghanistan to be effective...I never noticed slight elongation in satellite images...Karakoram highway passes from the same region, connecting china to this territory...

chackojoseph · Post by **chackojoseph** » 30 Nov 2011 22:16

Other than Paki side of Punjab and Sindh, rest of the co called country looks dysfunctional. Baloch, Pashtuns, Kashmiris, Waziris.. everyone wants out. Nice time to do some slices in order to create peace in the region.

Singha · Post by **Singha** » 30 Nov 2011 22:22

the wakhan corridor connects afghanistan to xinjiang. there is a road of sorts in some parts, but 100km of gap between road end and xinjiang border (wakhjir pass) per wiki. this route has been closed officially for 100 yrs.

as a route for trade to central asia, POK and wakhan corridor are not great, infact none of the land routes even via proper pakistan are that great...one needs either large rivers or railways to carry heavy trade volume cheaply or else khan std highways. none are present or likely to be present anytime soon.

we get our oil cheaper and easier from the gulf. and what can the CAR consume from us , with a total pop == NCR/

jai · Post by **jai** » 01 Dec 2011 01:26

Once you get POK, you can set up an air bridge for starters while the road connectivity comes up. Even the khans would be happy to help build the roads if we let them use it . Anything to get POK actually should be the motto - including giving khan a base in pok - will be a nice thorn in the puki and dragons side !!

Lalmohan · Post by **Lalmohan** » 01 Dec 2011 02:53

the thing is gulf oil will recede and CAR oil will become more attractive, plus the minerals

Reading about these wet dreams, a thought comes to my mind "Hanooz Dilli dur ast!"

The govt. of the day is hell bent on making peace and I would not be surprised if they settle for the LoC as the "de facto" border between us and the Pakis. The Pakjabis can probably let go of Balochistan and/or FATA but, POK is their "Jaguar vein!"

When was the last time you heard the Indian govt. even make a statement demanding Pakis to vacate POK? The only person who would talk about it was Bal Thakeray but, then nobody listens to him beyond the suburb of Thane anyway
