I was referring to a sub armed with 3500 KM missile. Good luck listening to its noise and ranging and intercepting it!MH370 wasn't propelling or making any noise, plus unlike PN case, 750 km mark and 900 miles across. They had no Idea and their best guess search area was 60,000 km sq wide.
If missile is in it initial stage it's totally interceptable. If jet are spread over evenly, 3-4 min are more than enough for the them catch any launch and intercept.
If your fighters are in a the right place at all. Remember, a lot of your fighers are JF-17 which is going to be your back bone. Not exactly tested for this kind of mission. AMRAAM, AFAIK, is available on F-16 only for you. And this is only for short range missile. What about the one with longer range? Oh right I remember! you will pray that it develops a snag.
Any country's best bet in this scenario is to fire her missiles once hit by a nuclear first strike. Let me guess what is your best bet then - Hope that somehow that missile which was tested a number of times fails? Your best bet then is to pray that your enemy has made a mistake! Not very good bet. Infact a number of missiles are fired to bring this 'risk' to absolute minimum.I am pretty sure Russians and American had this accuracy test down exponentially time more for all their onboard guidance systems than Indians and still their missile failed. Indian only got one INS to began with. I guess India's best bet is to fire their 3500 km missile from Indian ocean in south of Pakistan and hope it won't crash before reaching land.
