Be done with that shitting--shitting..... I have raised reasonable question.... might sound a bit harsh.... but all the fingers are not equal in your hand..... even on that note apologies If I offended you.... in any of my posts.
The reason why I say this because you simply ignore (****) the information given in my posts and come up misinformed...anyway,no hard feelings.
See depressed trajectory is an old thing which came from the shortcoming of fuel quality or thruster motors or missile being overweight...etc.... and only Iranian missiles or NK missiles have such trajectory.... not even cruise missile these days have such a trajectory
Again you didn't look into depressed trajectory of ballistic missiles...
According to [1]
If a missile is flown over shorter ranges,the excess energy can be used to fly less energy-efficient trajectories,such as low-apogee or "depressed" trajectories.Missiles flown on a depressed trajectory (DT) can have significantly shorter flight paths,and therefore significantly shorter flight times,than those flown on a standard trajectory of the same range.
Although this para discusses SLBMs,but the same method can be used in any BM,specially in the case of Indo-Pak situation.
There are several reasons why DT SLBMs may be useful in countering missile defenses. First, the short flight times of DT SLBMs limit the time available for an antimissile system to intercept the incoming warheads. Second, the low profile of depressed trajectories can greatly decrease the range over which a ground-based radar can observe and track the missile, also decreasing the time available for the intercept. Finally, space-based defenses such as the proposed Brilliant Pebbles system are limited to attacking targets at altitudes above about 100 kilometers because of the rapid increase in atmospheric density below this level, which results in extreme heating of the sensors on kinetic interceptors. DTs with apogees below this altitude could therefore underfly such defensive systems;we find that it is possible to fly a shaped trajectory with an apogee of less than 100 kilometers for ranges of roughly 2,000 kilometers or less.
In effect,Indian Quasi-Ballistic missile "Shaurya" also has a depressed trajectory.Tell me that it is too a short-coming of rocket motors.
But Shaurya uses a powerful motor to travel through the atmosphere,maintaining a low altitude.
the spike is there to improve accuracy.... but that has little effect on accuracy..... It has got nothing to do with speed yes it might reduce the initial drag... but that would not make much difference.... you can see why most of modern BM don't have any such spike..... barring SLBM since they have to tear through water for 150m which has lot more drag than air.... in a way that spike on a normal BM shows the shortcomings of the inadequate thrust.
You also don't know much about aerospikes and are merely speculating.
A simple definition "A drag-reducing aerospike is a device used to reduce the forebody pressure drag of blunt bodies at supersonic speeds. The aerospike creates a detached shock ahead of the body. Between the shock and the forebody a zone of recirculating flow occurs which acts like a more streamlined forebody profile, reducing the drag."
This concept was used on the Trident missile and is estimated to have increased the range by 550 km. The Trident aerospike consists of a flat circular plate mounted on an extensible boom which is deployed shortly after the missile breaks through the surface of the water after launch from the submarine. The use of the aerospike allowed a much blunter nose shape, providing increased internal volume for payload and propulsion without increasing the drag.
The aerospike, a telescoping outward extension that halves aerodynamic drag, is then deployed, and the boost phase begins.
It is clearly mentioned that the aerospike is deployed after the missile emerges out of water.It is also apparent that the aero-spike increases range and speed.
And where the hell did you see that aerospike is used to improve accuracy?...how?
Actually,both the aerospike and the depressed trajectory should be employed together.The aerospike will decrease drag faced in DT,hence the need of a powerful engine is eliminated to some extent.And I believe,this is the method applied to the modernized Ghaznavi.
All the BM have such separation as well as terminal trajectory controlling mechanism.... I would like to know weather the RV has additional motors with flex nozzle or not....
Yes,all modern BMs have post-correction system.But only long range BMs have Terminal Correction system.
And yes,TCS incorporates a flex nozzle and side-thrusters fitted on the ReV.
Now adding diversity is one thing but making your arsenal weak in with such missiles is another...... What kind of liquid fuel is being used for Gauri series BMs normally these liquid fuel missiles are kept empty and it takes 1-2 hours to refuel them.... and you can't allow the liquid fuel to be in the missile for launch.... It has to be launched quickly.....
Agreed...but Pakistan didn't incorporate it after the solid fueled missiles ere inducted.The Ghauri series was the pioneer of Pakistani missiles and is expected to be retired.I believe that Ghauri-I has already been retired.
Adding another stage has just increased the range and velocity.... aswell as payload capacity to some extent.... but there isn't much technological difference in motors.... fuel.... thrusters.... casing..... etc..etc...
I would say,an indigenously developed first-stage motor for Shaheen-II... It has no counterpart in the Chinese arsenal. so
Now A few questions about your most modern missile....
I didn't say it was the most modern in its class in the world.But it is the most modern missile of Pakistan.
No...the fuel is the same.Does it have different and better fuel than Its earlier version ??
The second stage has a faster motor.Does it have different motors ??
Yes,the INS is present even in Ghauri-II,Shaheen-I and Ghaznavi.Does it have automated internal guidance system ??
Is that a joke?Does it have artificial intelligence or a robotic computers ??
BTW,it does have a mission computer.
Yes,thats what helps the TCS and makes up the MaRV.Does it have flex nozzle ??
I don't know about that.Most probably,no.Does it have composite casing ??
The ReV is called a "vehicle" because of a small motor which corrects the trajectoryDoes it have RV with additional fuel and motors ??
Unless and Until it does not have all the things combined..... Its possibility of evading current ABM system of India is very minimal......
You are highly over-estimating Indian ABMs and highly under-estimating Pakistani BMs,taking them for mere Scuds.
