Says Who ? You ? Dont Talk without a Credible Source.
Yes, says me. And you don't have to respond to my post like a 12 year old stubborn child. We just have way too many fan boys on here filled with blind patriotism from both, India and Pakistan!!!! Reality doesn't mean anything to you.
We staill have S400s and Aegis and THAAD in Service.
Ok......you also have S-300, older S-200, Barak, Iron Dome (soon to be introduced or inducted in a serving capacity). So I don't know what exactly is your point. I am not against you having it, in fact, I think its a giant step forward for India. Specially, getting your hands onto the top end Israeli technology and setting up a base with it.
What Race ? Does pakistan has money for the Race ?
1) On the race: There is always a race. It may not be 5 cars to 5 cars. But there is always a race, majority of the times, 5:3 or 5:2. Remember, Pakistan has very good technology base on the missile tech. And its MUCH cheaper for them to use that vs. say if this was India acquiring F-22's or F-35's in 100's.
2) Pakistan has money for what? To create an ABM? What's an ABM? They have the missiles which will also make their ABM systems. The matter is to produce Fire Control Radars, Seekers, Trackers, Target Illumination and Detection systems, if we talk about ABM. In Pakistan's case, its a little useless due to their tiny depth. But to build Hypersonic missiles, that's very viable and I think that would be the response if I was to guess.
3) Pakistan's economy is growing. In about 2-3 years, they'll (and even today they do) have a couple of billions to pour into critical projects. These systems are an up-front one time spend, once you build the tech, expanding it is much easier as you continue to expand the footprint.
