Pakistan Rocket Force Command News and Discussions

[John Smith]

Hi, do you have any statistics to back this up? None of us know how many Brahmos or Scalps were launched and out of those actually hit their targets. Some definitely hit their targets, but how many were stopped we will never know.

There will always be battlefield losses and missile hits going both ways.

Even Israel with all that layered and overlapping missile defense, for such a small geographic area, could only intercept 86% of the missiles fired at it.

This is how Iran penetrated Israel's air defenses during the war

Through trial and error, and by launching more advanced missiles from various locations deep inside Iran, according to the Wall Street Journal; in the first six days of the war, only 8% of the missiles penetrated air defenses, compared to 16% in the second half of the war; fragments of...

Fact is, Israel not only had the most layered and advanced air defence system in the world, but also had the air defense of the Gulf countries and the US-European forces in the theater. Pakistan doesn't have all that. Also, most of the missiles that Israel shot down were of the cheaper and less-advanced variety. When Iran started using more advanced ballistic missile, there was a notable decrease in interceptions. BrahMos is relatively more advanced.
And hitting you major air bases and the nuclear command are not "acceptable losses".

What is this, does anyone know?

Look very similar to Rasoob-250 may be a upgraded version with increase range or payload capacity or something related to the integration with bigger platform.

It has its air intake above fuselage unlike Rasoob-250 which have intakes below

Most probably a heavier version of this PAF needs its own long sticks

Everything in this thread is based on conjecture. Most of the people who post this don't understand what an independent Rocket Force would entail.

Can anyone provide the official original statement?

It establishment was announced during a Speech by PM.
" We established a rocket command force within the army and it will be able to strike enemy from every direction" that's what the PM said in his speech.

 

[falcon34]

It's there, but trying to get the original one as well.

You gotta be more specific sir. If it's copy is there, is it with army or Nay.
Do we have air launched like the Chinese do?.

This could mean that in the future, I might see Pakistanis more often in my city......

Birmingham? .. ..

Hi, wow, I was unaware Pakistan had its nuclear command sitting on the tarmac of Bolari or in a cheap fabricated hanger in Nur Khan.

Should my brother worry about radiation leakage from Margala hills in his visit to Pakistan? Lol!

I do agree with you that more work has to be done to improve interceptions. A huge numbers of Brahmos missiles being launched will be problematic. Pakistan also needs to be able to hit distant Indian airbases en masse and hard.

My question is, has there been any official explanation of the Pakistan Rocket Force's strategic positioning? Its organizational structure? Or any other specific information?

If it's simply stated that we've established such a force, it's difficult to make further analysis and judgment.

Birmingham? .. ..

I'm Chinese. I live in Mianyang.
You can find more information about this city.

Some analysis can be made based on the weapons system that have been assigned to this force.

 

[AeroTech]

Same stuff..new packaging.



Utter bakwaas.



The same babur subsonic cruise missile now has some 30 odd variants. There is really non existent new tech, no industrial base, and no money to feed this new 'rocket command'.



Enjoy being fooled.



You just dont have the industrial base and resources for mass production. Any one with an average understanding of Paks economy and some years of service in our defence setups knows this basic fact. But lets play along..lets fool each other..lets never actually improve.

Until more official information is available, this analysis is meaningless.

For example, I know a lot about the PLARF, and others may know about other countries. But these are all different. We can't draw rich conclusions based on a single statement. It's meaningless.

True, but officially inducted weapons include Fatah (A100 MLRS), Fatah-1 140km MLRS, Fatah-2 400km TBM, Fatah-3 (speculated to be CM302 or HD-1) and Fatah-4 low flying 750km subsonic cruise missile.

Surely "we" not "you" right?
