A lot of design changes between Fatah and Babur series especially in the ER.
Missile seems bulkier and longer, with different wing configuration and intake.

We need to have solid 1000-1500km option


If the baseline is 750km

Then the E.R version should be at least 1000km minimum

The whole purpose of the rocket force is to have multiple options that we can mass produce to some extent to fight a intensive war where your air force may be pushed back due to A.D


This is great but I'm more interested in our supersonic/hypersonic option

Subsonics would be more difficult to stop especially given the terrain we have Mumbai can be hit via the sea route Delhi can be hit from Kashmir and beyond. While shorter range F series takes out targets in Punjab, Gujrat and Rajasthan.
You won't see BM and hypersonics used with freedom or freely, both are nuclear powers.

hyper focus is required on drones, missiles and second strike capability.

Sometimes their is a reason for that

The Babus are still living in Unnis so deyrh. Those "Reasons" are long gone. Those who need to know, already know. They got satellite imagery
