Pakistan Missiles - Updates, News & Discussion

[Maarkhoor]

So officially we have entered in Hypersonic category

Only known public one test rest two or three occasions speculation and some plasma clouds witnessed by some locals.

Hypersonic?????

Hypersonic, but not as in Hypersonic Glide Vehicle (HGV). Rather, its the hypersonic speed at the terminal phase.

The army should stop playing with definitions. ISPR can put a spin on it but it is still isn't a proper hypersonic missile.....

 

[Zephyrus]

Every self respecting ballistic missile is hypersonic during the terminal phase.

The below image is what you can call an actual "Hypersonic" missile because it has an HGV. US Army just recently tested its Black Beard Ground Launched Hypersonic missile. Lets hope our Fatah series evolves into this soon.

But the word "hypersonic" has specifically been used in announcement today.....never before.....

 

[Yasser76]

Unsure if it is true hypersonic or not, but any test of faster missile that is harder to intercept is good news in my book. Now we just have to start getting industrial capacity right so we can manufacture on mass. If the Russia/Ukraine and US/Iran conflicts have taught us anyting it is that

This is my main take from the ISPR statement, could mean many things though

"“It is capable of engaging targets with high precision and defeating [the] enemy’s missile defence systems due to its unique trajectory and manoeuvrability features,”

The true technical core of a hypersonic missile is that it travels at speeds exceeding Mach 5 during the mid-course phase of flight while retaining controllable, high-maneuverability capabilities.
