India may fail to defend itself from Pakistani missiles: Expert

We are in the process of developing BMD. At present we may not defend fully from Pakistani missiles, but in another 10 years or so, the BMD should be good enough for stopping 90% of Pakistani missiles.

I don't understand, why the Americans are spending billions upon billions of dollars to make a (Real) operational system, when they can simply go to Indians and or Israelis and buy a fully operational system for fraction of what they have been spending. :close_tema:
 
yes babur 3 SLCM. you are most likely, color blind. get yourself checked by a doctor.

I am not color blind, your propagandists might be.

if only i get a penny every time I hear that, it always ends up being Russian as "Your own"

It is not an easy task although the system has been tested successfully several times & its tracking & FC radars had been installed at many places. Something's cooking...

Technology is not static and it takes time to evolve. And there is a collaboration between Americans, Indians and Israelis for a credible ABM system. In next 10 year, Indian defense budget should be around $150 billion, enough to afford a ABM system.
 
India.

India big.
India strong.
India fancy.

Pakistan small.
Pakistan backward.
Pakistan bruised.

India still not directly attack Pakistan.

India big, strong, fancy... baby.

Talk is cheap.

ISLAMABAD: India may not be able to fully defend itself from a possible Pakistani nuclear strike in a conflict despite the country's heavy investments in developing anti-ballistic missile systems, a Russian nuclear expert has cautioned.


Petr Topychkanov, a senior researcher at the Carnegie Moscow Centre's Non-Proliferation Programme, said that despite large scale cooperation between India and Israel for the development of a ballistic missile defence system and India's efforts for acquiring S-400 defence systems from Russia, it is "very far" from defending itself from a Pakistani missile attack.

"Even in 10 years and with the huge budgets that India plans to spend on the development of nuclear weapons and capabilities, it is difficult to imagine it will be able to defend its territory from possible strikes from Pakistan in case of conflict," Topychkanov was quoted as saying by the Dawn.

Talking about India's candidature for the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG), Topychkanov said the world will be cautious about India.

"The nuclear waiver given to Indian became a very important part of the lesson for the international community because Delhi did not give a lot in exchange, it didn't change policies and approaches," he said.

About Russia's policy for strategic stability in South Asia, Topychkanov said Moscow is interested in regional strategic stability and is working on avoiding crisis in the area.

He said despite longstanding strategic partnership with India, Russia was developing relations with both Islamabad and New Delhi.

India successfully test-fired its indigenously developed supersonic interceptor missile from a test range off Odisha coast on Sunday which is capable of destroying any incoming ballistic missile, prompting Pakistan to say that it would disturb the balance of power in the region and it plans to raise the issue at the international level.

Not even 30%
 
immune neither side they both has chance to get hit even though both country is covered by SAM
decrease the chance by a good SAM is yes
if s400 and s500 covers the whole india which is not easy and expensive it will help a lot to india

Yeah yeah indians we don't have any missile .. you are safe now go to sleep.. It's winter..and you know if call of nature comes you'll have to go to the Fields or Railway track at this time of night.. 150$ billion won't help you ..:whistle::wave:
 
BMDs are such unproven tech and missiles are designed to evade them. The success rate will probably be around under 50%. It's a good way to burn your money and give the nation a false sense of security. Even if 5 nukes hit their target that can cripple a nation as big as India.
