Debunking India's Military supremacy claims

I don't know how you read news. Japantimes is quoting a scientist whose named isn't mentioned even. Japantimes isn't claiming it.

No one, no one will ever believe that North Korea assisted Pakistan in developing nukes, i just don't understand how you can say this :D :D: D
The fact that Japan Times reported it shows its high credibility

Also This
(Pakistan also received Scud technology from North Korea around this time, renaming its missile variants Ghauri.)

The sustainer motor also doesnt look like slow burning,looking at the size of the plume which is 1.75 times larger than missile (yeah i know not a very exact way of measuring thrust but still)

compare this to prithvi plume. thats slow burning, about than half the size of missile. Prithvi with big massive wings, steering small fins at the back and liquid fuel long time burning motor which can be throttled ...is likely candidate for Quasi ballistic.
I cant beleive the same is true for K-15

This is the picture of K-15 launcher VLS tube as fitted on INS Arihant of India.
Assuming that K-15 is 0.74 Cm wide , the narrowest diameter of this tube is 0.76 m wide.
By stipulation the widest part of this tube,the bottom is 1.7 m wide.
That's the maximum Diameter of anything that can fit he Missile silos of India's INS Arihant. (Measurements done by pixel counting and publicly available information about K-15 diameter and then compensating for additional thickness of VLS tube).
This means 1.7 meter wide INS Arihant silo will fit four K-15 and one K-4 of 1.3 meter Diameter.
That will be the end of INS Arihant capability.
Any upcoming indian SLBM will need a new submarine with a different diameter Silos.
 
How can you say its Arihant reactor ???? :D :D
@Detrrent ... your views sir ??

When you know that you are inferior to your enemy and you could not do much...you start 'underestimating' your enemy and 'debunking' your enemy's supremacy.

Chor Bhai, yeh bata bicharay Tej Bahadur ka kia hoa? Suna tha bichara ghayab hogaya hai??
 
About K-15, being Quasi Ballistic or being able to fly a depressed trajectory is not Unique to India or K-15. Pretty much all SLBM or many ICBM can do that without the need of any fins.
There is data available for Trident being able to fly DT-60 or depressed trajectory at only 60 Km altitude at the expense of reduced range of 1700-2000 Km.
Having wings is not a must. In fact wings increase drag.
There must be good reason why nobody else uses wings on their SLBM?

The Shaurya and the K-15 are hypersonic cruise missiles. The only difference is they achieve a high altitude before cruising.

The Trident is a BM, it cannot maneuver before hitting a target, the K-15 can, like a cruise missile.

Arihant is a TD.
