Pak Ballistic Missile

A Karachi-bound ship from China was stopped by Indian security agencies at Mumbai's Nhava Sheva port on suspicion that it contained a dual-use consignment that could be used for Pakistan's nuclear and ballistic missile programme, officials here said.

India on Thursday said it was aware of Pakistan's recent ballistic missile tests that were possibly carried out from Sonmiani flight test range located in Balochistan.

Pakistan has successfully carried out the night-training launch of surface-to-surface ballistic missile 'Ghaznavi', the Pakistani Army said today.

Pakistan Army on Thursday successfully test-fired the short range surface-to-surface ballistic missile ''Nasr'' which it claimed can defeat any ballistic missile defence system now available in the country's neighbourhood or any other system being developed.

Pakistan said today that India's decision to buy S-400 missile defence system from Russia will further destabilise stability in the region and renewed the arms race. In a statement, the Foreign Office said the Indian purchase was part of its efforts to acquire a Ballistic Missile Defence (BMD) System through multiple sources.

Days after North Korea fired a mid-range ballistic missile over Japan, India has asked for investigations into the country's nuclear proliferation linkages and also asked to hold accountable those responsible for it, in a veiled reference to Pakistan.

China plans to step up military cooperation with "all weather" friend Pakistan to produce ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and a multi-role combat aircraft, official media here reported as Pakistan's new army chief held talks with top Chinese officials.

With the first successful test of the submarine-launched Babur missile, Pakistan has taken a giant step towards proving its naval nuclear deterrent. In the process, Pakistan completed its nuclear triad, since it already possesses land-based ballistic missiles as well as tactical nuclear bombs that it can drop from its fighter aircraft.

A top US lawmaker has alleged that China was helping Pakistan with intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs).

Expressing concern over latest reports suggesting that China supplied nuclear weapons technology and design to Pakistan, two influential US lawmakers have written a letter to the Obama administration, seeking to know what has been done to halt such cooperation which represents a threat to the national security of America and its allies.

The US has asked all nuclear-capable countries to exercise restraint after India and Pakistan test-fired ballistic missiles within a week. State Department spokesperson Victoria Nuland, in response to a question on the latest missile test by Pakistan, said, "(We give) the same message that we gave at the time of the Indian test: that we urge all nu...

The Pakistani military says it has successfully test-launched an upgraded intermediate-range ballistic missile capable of carrying a nuclear warhead. The military said in a statement on Wednesday that the missile was an improved version of the Shaheen 1 with a longer range. The Shaheen 1 is believed to have a range of 750 kilometers (465 miles). ...

Pakistan on Tuesday test fired the nuclear-capable Ghauri ballistic missile with a range of 1,300 kilometres that can hit targets in India, with Premier Yousuf Raza Gilani saying the launch demonstrated that the country's defence capability is "impregnable".The Strategic Missile Group of the Pakistani army's Strategic Force Command conducted the te...
