India using loitering weapon in Kashmir

.
you are right.. but the harpy still makes a good case for itself as a loitering weapon on the LoC.
yeah it will be but remember OP's pic clearly shows a smoke trail and harpy uses turboprop, its definitely a ATGM of some kind

It looks more like an ATGM which are quite commonly used by both sides on the LoC

Yes it does.
It's a bit like few unsaid rules of engagement. If there are changes, they are incremental, and all changes are mtched by both sides. Like Pakistan started implementing 50 cal AMR's in Sniper roles, so India did the same in 338LM. If India starts deploying loitering Weaponry, within no time PA will use the same.

Could be this. They maybe the mystery Asian customer in the following case. although its speculation, they are on a massive buying spree, and their own scientists aren’t keeping up with their appetite.

Although if it turns out to be North Korea it could really be something.

More clear pic post soon. ... this seems delta shaped loitering weapon ..flying pattern and hitting the target is exactly same used in NK war. But this is not ATGM. This is new level of war.
I can't really be sure from the picture however if India is using a loiter drone for NLOS attack, it just escalated the dynamics and shouldn't start its regular randi rona when there is N+1 response from Pakistan. Missile engagements till now have been line of sight weapons, upgrade to non line of sight smart weapons opens the door for a lot of things, this will not be good for both sides.
