Have there ever been failures of any test firing by the Bakis.

I mean atleast one of their WuDu DingDongs or DungFans or whatever it is they are testing must have "Phuc Dup" atleast one time no? A cursory search on Chacha gives no satisfactory answer.

No failures are publicly acknowledged in the Land of the Pure. All their missiles have a 100% success rate because they are imported directly from China. They are only involved in painting it.

Pakistan Tests Ballistic Missile Capable of Carrying Multiple Nuclear Warheads

Tuesday’s maiden flight test of the Ababeel missile was announced by military spokesman Major General Asif Ghafoor. He said it “has the capability to engage multiple targets with high precision, defeating the enemy’s hostile radars.”

shameless in their claims :

Earlier this month, Pakistan successfully tested for the first time a submarine-launched, nuclear-capable cruise missile with a range of 450 kilometers.

with this launch they have proved :
1. MIRV capability
2. Ability to Miniature their nukes

All in one stroke, take you kafurs.

The new missile is called "Abey-Bill"., in direct challenge to Bill Clinton who had to implement the pressler amendment on Bakistan. The word is Hyderabadi, K'taka - as in "Abey" is a start of a slur meant to challenge.

Additionally, the 1st stage has big strong TFTA fins., SDRE missiles do not have any fins. That indicates that the rocket has complete control while it is going up in atmosphere while SDRE missiles are without any control laws.

Do not understand why B'gluru, Keralites are doing lungi dance!!

From the image it appears that Abeybull is about 13 meters/40 feet tall and has a "head" (cone base) diameter of nearly 3 meters (2.5 plus meters). Assuming that the single storey building by the side is 3 meters in height.

That reaction means that China can provoke India to change its course and that Indian actions are unplanned and dictated by how India can be made to dance by China playing Pakistan. I don't think we need to react to this at all by showing "We also have MIRVs". China wants us to point mijjies at Pakistan. If we react at all we must react by pointing more mijjiles at China

The new Ababeel does have some resemblance to DF 21 missile.

Austin · Post by **Austin** » 25 Jan 2017 11:17

Ababeel , looks like a 3 stage missile , The first 2 stage has vented interstage like Agni-2

The 3rd stage or what appears to be like a third stage is very interesting , Instead of maintaining a uniform circular stage , it broadens up like a Satellite Launch Vehical , which is to say the payload section looks broader then the second stage one.

That is where the MIRV claim looks to be the broader third stage like a satellite launch vehical can carry multiple payloads else there is no reason to make it larger dia compared to second stage unless you are carrying a bigger ( in size ) payload.

I am not sure if between second and third stage there is interstage seperation or ullage motor like we used in older agni.

Austin · Post by **Austin** » 25 Jan 2017 11:28

See no reason why it cant do a 3000-3500 km range based on number of stages unless it has low fuel mass fraction due to non use of composites stages or it is politically correct to say it is just 2,200 km

nirav · Post by **nirav** » 25 Jan 2017 13:15

I support bakis acquiring longer ranged mijjiles.

About time the gora pakis in londonistan and their cousins have nightmares of the isloo nuclear mijjiles.

Won't mind them having a twu ICBM too, capable of hitting their erstwhile mai baap.

Aditya , You are right it is only after interstage 2 & 3 that we see something new a short rocket booster which looks like a 3rd stage motor and then a broader/larger diameter PBV which likely holds the MIRV covered by payload fairing.

I am just thinking if the large dia is a proper bus with liquid engine or the 3rd stage is used to fly the MIRV , both cases are possible.

Any ways an interesting configuration for missile never seen such configuration except for SLV.

India already has an effective missile defence shield to intercept Pakistan's 'Ababeel' missile
http://www.defencenews.in/article.aspx?id=250099

Well this is a first (AFAIK)....guess even bullshit has a limit....

Meanwhile, tall claims made by Pakistan have again raised doubt within Indian science community. Dr Chander wonders if Pakistan's claim regarding MIRV technology in a short-range missile with a range of just 2,200km is true. According to veteran missile scientist, use of such technologies in a short range missile is difficult. Primarily, it is used in long range missile. So we need to wait for more substantial inputs to verify Pakistan's claims.

LokeshC · Post by **LokeshC** » 26 Jan 2017 11:14

Confused, why would a short range missile NOT be mirved?

Even 1000km trajectory gives enough time to coast and release the payloads.

Here we go again....cannot afford the Rafale, so they will go begging to the UAE for their Dash-9s and ask to provide them as baksheesh. This is to achieve some level of parity vis-à-vis the Rafale. Being saying this for the longest time. We should get the Dash-5s from Qatar and the Dash-9s from the UAE. Way cheaper than buying another 36 Rafales.

UAE - 32 new build Mirage 2000-9s and 30 older Mirage 2000s upgraded to the Dash 9 standard.

I have reason to believe that it is MRV capable like the Polaris. They are clustered to hit a common target but they are NOT independently targeted (MIRV) which require sufficient midcourse glide and maneuvering bus. This missile is revealing for the following reasons:

* SPD has come to the logical conclusion that it CANNOT expect a graduated response up the escalation ladder due to SFC massive retaliation protocol thereby limiting any chance of deescalation.

* India's maturing capability to counter force along w/ development of ABMs and emerging sea borne deterrent has prompted SPD to place a premium on w/e remaining deterrent left after a first strike perform adequate counter value for a given target. Given that they face yield limitations it makes sense to cluster the warheads to do this.

TAI to upgrade Pakistan's F-16 MLUs with night time capability

The Pakistan Air Force’s (PAF) fleet of 45 F-16A/B Block-15 Mid-Life Update (MLU)s will be upgraded by Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) with improved nighttime capabilities, C4Defence reports.

As per C4Defence, TAI is optimizing “the aircraft’s cockpit for night flights.” Part of this program, TAI will install night-vision goggles. Thus far, two PAF F-16 Block-15s have been upgraded, with the work taking place in Shahbaz Air Base. In tandem with training, TAI will provide the PAF with 43 upgrade kits, enabling the PAF to carry out the upgrade in Pakistan.

Myanmar in advanced negotiations to licence-build JF-17 fighter

http://www.janes.com/article/67387/myan ... 17-fighter

After deciding to purchase 16 JF-17 Thunder multi-role combat aircraft in 2015, Myanmar is now in advanced negotiations with Pakistan to also licence-build the third-generation fighter, defence industry sources in Yangon and sources close to the Myanmar Air Force (MAF) told Jane's in mid-January.

If an agreement is reached, Myanmar's bid to manufacture the single-engine combat aircraft - co-developed by the Pakistan Aeronautical Complex (PAC) and China's Chengdu Aerospace Corporation (CAC) - could mark a significant step forward in the country's efforts to expand its local defence industry.

As the MAF phases out its obsolete fleet of F-7M Airguard and A-5C 'Fantan' combat aircraft purchased from China in the 1990s, licensed production of the JF-17 Thunder would also mean that the aircraft will likely become the MAF's workhorse over the coming decades in much the same way as it has moved to prominence within the Pakistan Air Force (PAF).

At least 70 of the fighters are in service with the PAF, with the first ones having entered service in 2009. Expectations are that the PAF will induct up to 150 JF-17 Thunder fighters in the coming years.

The first of 16 imported JF-17s ordered by Myanmar are expected to go into service with the MAF later this year. Speaking on condition of anonymity, sources told Jane's that these aircraft will be of the Block II variant, which was first rolled out from the PAC's Kamra plant in 2015 and which, unlike the Block I variant, features an air-to-air refuelling capability and improved avionics and electronics.

It is unclear whether later deliveries to the MAF will include the far more advanced Block III variant being produced at Kamra since last year. Sources told Jane's that in the context of ongoing negotiations on licensed production, Myanmar is seeking to produce the aircraft's Block III variant.
