Turkish Ramjet Powered Artillery shell in final phases of development.
I don't know why haven't we developed such systems before hand given the odds we faced vis a vis India, the reactive appraoch needs to done with
 
I looked up quite bit on Ramjet propelled Artillery projectiles but for a country like pak that's not feasible, too expensive we have F1 for but something Pakistan should do is work on Rocket assisted Gliding 155mm projectile. Just like our BREK.
Provides the same range as a Ramjet powered projectile but at cheaper cost and is in with our technological grasp. Solid fuel Rocket motor + deployable wings for gliding.
@Panzerkiel
Is something in this domain happening in pak. As far as I know there's only one silicon valley company working on such a project while the rest are just obsessed with ramjets.
Imagine SH15 blasting out Indian air bases with these projectile

Ramjet projectiles can barely carry little explosive payloads

Also it's not feasible for a country like, Rocket Assisted+deployable wings would be one of the most cost effective options, I don't think so army's focus is on artillery that much they are Hooked on the ARFC, but Such a 155mm would lessen the strike burden on F1.
SH15 could take out fuel dumps, ammunition dumps, AD and radars whilst F1 can be used to hit Indian airbase in Huge salvos.
 
I wonder how many shells POF produces annually, many countries are ramping up 155mm production, I remember they sighed a deal with the Turkish firm repkon to build a facility that can produce 120k shells annually, I think a production capacity of 500k shells and a stockpile of at least 3 million shells should kept enough for a year of high intensity combat

Chances are that for any conflict with India, these manufacturing facilities wont last very long given how close they are relative to India. Pakistan will have what it starts the war with, for the war. India is better placed as her facilities are much further into India's heartlands.

Better to have a bigger stockpile at the beginning for Pakistan, then relying on manufacturing during a war.
