Thanks for that, albeit my information was that two C-130s were used to ferry the equipment into Quetta. It was also during this period that a hijacked PIA aircraft, which was forced to fly into India was intercepted by the PAF and forced to land inside Pakistan.

Well after twelve years the cats out of the bag as Gohar Ayub who was Pakistan's FM in 1998, has claimed that both Nawaz and Shahbaz were hoping and counting on healthy incentives from Washington hence the lapse of two weeks between Indian and Pakistani tests, however in the end it was the public pressure and COAS's demand to press ahead with conducting

Oh please, don't give me this BS. Link the Gohar Ayub interview. Read Sartaj Aziz and many others. Sartaj Aziz says Nawaz started the DCC meeting by conducting a poll among its members but said before that he had already decided and had already talked to Ishfaque Khan and Samad Mubarkmand. You'll steal credit and give it to the military as well? Indeed every despicable incident has to be the conduct of politicians and every commendable one by the military. Just the way ZAB is blamed as the prime responsible for the Fall of Dhaka by a military that seeks to absolve itself of its crimes. Might I suggest that Ayub be given credit for the Multan conference and prepping the nuclear program as well?

Two weeks --> Preparation. Ishfaque Khan was abroad. Decision was made. Tunnels were cleaned, prepped. Weapons were assembled. Set up was completed at Chaghi. Concrete was poured.

Since NS was the head of state, depositing all into his account is jumping the gun to say the least. The period lapse suggests that he was buying time, with all Sats focused on your country, keeping the big brother guessing was also a ploy who even managed to count the number of Vehicles heading out to the test site. When the reality came calling, it was same NS who became oblivious to Kargil debacle.
Cherry picking has a whole new meaning.

Its the result of Everybody's effort ,The Politicians , The Millitery , The Intelligentsia ,The Civil Services, The Rich Industrialists and The Scientists which worked day and night to reach this goal of which we all are proud.

However the ground for acquiring Nuclear Technology was set by Bhutto for which he ultimately paid as Henry Kissinger USFS at that time, threatened him that" we will destabilize your Gov and make a horrible examply out of You".

Bhutto Himself Said "We Will Eate Grass " Referring to the funding of Nuclear Program.

Than the Latter guys carried on with the program As some people in the US intel(During Gen Zia Era) confirmed that Pakistan was just a SCREWDRIVER TURN away from making a nuclear bomb, as a result of this the Famous Pressler Amendments were passed in US CONGRESS which blocked all kinds of Aid to Pakistan due its defiance and continuing will to pursue Nuclear Technology.

Then finally on 28th May 1998 in response to all that decades of Indian Nuclear imbalance and superiority Pakistan led by the Gov of Nawaz Shariff carried out the Nuclear Test for which we all can Proudly say " Yes We are the Only Muslim Nuclear Power and no nation on this earth can harm us "

It was the dedication of every true Patriotic Pakistani which led Pakistan in acquiring Nukes. I urge the members , not to indulge in petty arguments that " Hey this is the main guy " Such a feat was surely not possible alone by a single Entity. Everybody who played a role Deserves the gratitude.

C-130 Hercules transport aircraft took Nuke assembly parts from Rawalpindi Airport tpwards Chaggi. Four PAF F-16s armed with air-to-air missiles provided escort, with secret orders to shoot the C-130 down if it tried to fly out of Pakistani airspace.

Why C-130 will fly out of Pakistan Airspace?



BTW, Youm-e-Takbeer mubarak to everyone and thanks for bringing the stability and peace balance in this region.





*Youm-e-Takbeer =?

Great sith lord,
Apparently, this weapon is saving millions of people from and misadventure from India.

I am not aware of the orders, but this is one of the F-16 Pilot who escorted the C-130.

I think this guy is Haseeb Paracha i saw him in "Aik din Geo kay Saath" at that time he was Wing Commander, he was Commanding Officer of PAF's no. 11 Squadron at that time, he also performed with his F-16 on one of the 23rd March parade.
