Pakistan Rocket Force Command News and Discussions

This sounds similar to Iranian missile cities, which is an approach that Pakistan should copy but problem is it's very expensive. Unlike Iranians, Russkies, Gulfies we can't just sell oil and gas and get megabucks.

whats makes you saw we dont have similar things? Maybe we have similar in number to iran...who knows

During May 2025, Pakistan was firing missiles from out in the open. If possible offensive and even defensive systems should be housed if not employed from hidden bunkers if not from mountain tunnels.

For example, a good number of tunnels could be built in the salt range, and be located relatively close to the border.

We have missile complexes there currently, but from satellite imagery the way missiles are stored and brought to fire may not be as survivable in the age of faster and longer range munitions.

I hope the lessons of the Iran wars of the last two years are really behind taken to heart, including shifting our fissile and missile production to undergo mountain locations. We may never know when hostile capabilities are matched with hostile intent, by adversaries near or far.

Yes it’s expensive, but if we also offer to build similar missile cities to the Saudis (who have a considerable mountain range approx 150 km north of Riyadh), who are looking for a way to deter Iran (and any others with nefarious plans against them) as our defense alliance partners, we would gain the expertise, technology and possible some funding assistance to do it in Pakistan. If Pakistan is ever called upon to employ kinetic means against an adversary of the Saudis and the Pakistani state agrees, having the missile bases inside Pakistan would be just as capable as having those bases inside Saudi, so conventional missile bases in Pakistan could be of use to the Saudis defense as fulfilling the spirit of the defense treaty.

Spread over the next 5-10 years, much could be built and could help employ a lot of Pakistani people, in Pakistan and Saudi.

Under the auspices of “mining”, much joint cooperation could be done.

I'm sure there are some solid fuel/chemical related inputs that only the Saudis can supply due to them being a major oil exporter too. So, with investment and R&D, they too would need to establish industrial units leveraging their strengths (of which there are many). Hence, in addition to parallel production lines, there is an opportunity for actual, industrial-layer integration between KSA and Pak.

China, India, etc., always make it a win-lose issue; we can make it win-win for the publics and nations involved.
