Matter of Concern
by manish bagdi on Aug 27, 2007 03:32 PM

Definately somewhere PAKISTAN has taken lead in missile technology as we are falling behind in our ongoing prjects.
One thing comes in mind that if the missile has a range of 350Kms then definately missile has to very heavy and it seems that neither F-16 or JF-17 is capable of arrying these missiles.
Even Pak want to carry these missiles on these two aircrafts a lot of Modification has to take place, right noe only PC-3 orion aircraft looks to carry these missiles. These aircrafts ahs low speed as compare to conventinal fighter jets.
But this has really created a big problem for india because these PC-3 orion are also long duration fighter jets and can hit any Indian costs 10 hrs. after taking off. We need to built a very strong Suveliance system and Network of radars and Missiles. We should not take all these very lightly.
But one thing also comes in mind that if Pakistan has such a sound knowledge of "BALLASTICS" and "GUIDANCE" why this nation is not able to develop its own space craft, where as in dia on its own developed highly capable Spacecrafts.
