Is it just rhetoric and bluster in some of the Paki Anal Cyst papers or is there truth to them certain missiles in the Jihadi naval force being operationalised??

they have 5 ancient small disel submarines they have been trying to retrofit with AIP for a while. it appears that even they aren't operational perrenially. they have <10 frigates and corvettes with very poor maintenance . When i said they can pose challenge to houthis or somali pirates on a good day , i forgot to add the caveat that someone will need to tow the Pakistani navy to the gulf of Aden for even that to happen.

insofar as porki missiles are concerned even the Land base BMs are more like bowel movements than ballistic missiles. They are scud level and may not work . If they want to use the nukes their best bet is smuggling a dirty bomb or kamikazing a mirage 5 or a bandarr and hoping it triggers.

Munir openly threatening nuclear attacks against a U.S. ally while on American soil and facing no consequences shows both the urgent need for and glaring absence of effective PR and lobbying. While it’s clear he enjoys the assurances and backing of the current US administration, his remarks should have drawn strong criticism from the media and other political leaders outside the admin. Irrespective of the Govt in Delhi, we have consistently neglected the fundamentals, underinvesting in our own narrative while allowing Pakis a free pass on the global stage.

US "strategic partner" . Not an ally . Humongous difference.
