Pakistan Rocket Force Command News and Discussions

[Fatman17]

How do we know it's a cruise missile, and also supersonic from a single still photo?

Call ISPR

 

[Pakistan Space Agency]

Call ISPR

Why ISPR? They didn't announce anything.

How do we know it's a cruise missile, and also supersonic from a single still photo?

Because they literally showed a supersonic cruise missile in that single still photo. If the ISPR video guy was told to use a pic of a Shahed drone and call it "Fatah Munna" he would've done that.

They are the ones who revealed this photo in that song. So the only question is what this is, and by the looks of it looks a lot like Chinese HD 1.

If the topic needs editing, how about

PA Rocket Force Command / Fatah Series News Updates & Discussions.​

news & discussions only because 'updates' sounds unnecessary.

And Please also remove Fatah 1, Fatah2 from the title of this other thread so it can focus on other artillery.

"PA MLRS, Self Propelled and towed artillery [BM-11, Fatah-I GMLRS, Fatah-II] - News, Updates & Discussions "​

Just want to ask, since we are going to discuss the Fatah series here that means all the other related missiles whether its ground launched or air launched or ship/submarine launched that does not fall under the umbrella of ARFC will be discussed in the Pakistan Missiles thread right?

So they showed a picture of a Chinese missile and we have assumed we are acquiring it?

If you'd just watch the video you wouldn't be asking this. It's shared more than once on the forum.

What other conclusion is there?

Ispr admin just really likes hd-1 for some reason

This is not a vanilla Chinese missile; at best, it is a derivative variant of HD1 [original]

 

[studsmart]

Pakistan RFC currently has:
Fatah 1 - MLRS - 140km
Fatah 2 - MLRS - 400km
Fatah 3 - Supersonic cruise - 450km
Fatah 4 - GLCM - 700km
Fatah 5 - In development

F1,2,3 are all supersonic, aren't they?

 

[PakAl]

F1,2,3 are all supersonic, aren't they?

Yes but the first 2 are:
Fatah 1 rocket artillery
Fatah 2 rocket artillery
I meant:
Fatah 3 supersonic cruise missile
Fatah 4 Cruise missile (likely subsonic)
Fatah 5 test as claimed by @Zarvan, some sources say hypersonic and some say longer range subsonic 1000km.

Hypersonic cruise missile or HGV would be a big step towards stronger defence.

Got it, however, F1 and 2 are also new Hypersonic or high SS. Isn't it?

No, F1 is a Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System and is just a guided rocket artillery which is not hypersonic. F2 on the other hand is a Tactical Ballistic Missile or SRBM (SMASH being its naval derivative) whose terminal speed as quoted by Quwa is going to be supersonic.
