PAF Conducts successful test of indigenously developed FAAZ BVRAAM

[Be dazzled]

Overjoyed to see this. It will not just be A2A missile. This could be first step towards a cheap and local air defense system as well.

True. Making bvr tech is a milestone for the local industry.

If these missiles are going to be the base for the ground based, Air Defense systems as well then we can hope for a low cost LOMAD/ SHORAD that we can produce in enough numbers..

09-109. The OG weapon testbed aircraft of PAF. Not the first time it tested indigenous weaponry. Let's see if it'd test Taimur ALCM in future.

Masha Allah!

Brings LOAL with 2-way link - in network centric environment, completely discreet and ranges upto 60km realistically. however I do not think it has dual pulse motor.

FAAZ IIR new concept employment with lessons learned from 2025 air battles

The missile has the number "205" in the mid section by the first set of fins.

Anyone have any idea on what 205 represents? Number of testing firings to date?

Normally, when Pakistan releases information on a new missile like this, it is basically complete and just about to enter serial production ??

conceptually, as our Indian friends are fond of saying...... "it is a game changer ..."

that is why all test are always successfull.

concept is as same as "ASRAAM" just bigger range and effective use of network data link enviorment. use of SD-10 body also keeps Price down. why re-invent the wheel.

More visuals in this one. There is another missile on the other wing.

all great except the range.. I hope with some modern lighter body/guidance and new propellant, we can extend the range.
Or a booster may help.

No one will ever know the real range this may just be advertised for export customers.

almost the same size as the fuel tank, is this normal ?

more longer but thinner

I think that's SD-10

It could be another surprise for the Indians
Where they think one thing and then get surprised

PL15E trick worked magnificently

Alhamdoulillah a great achievement.

The size and range dont make sense. I am sure we are purposely giving a range of anove 100kms. Like shaheen3 has a range of 2750kms. The bigger question is if there is 2 way data link, if it does then the role of F7PGs and whaever life is left in mirages as a defensive weapon went on steroids.
Let's keep the enemy guessing.

Lastly, I hope that like Nasr led to Fatah (using the analogy a fellow poster used yrs ago) and sd10A led to Faaz, the experience with Faaz and the various plethora of air defence we use, will inshallah lead to a local air defence solution.
