NOTAMS/NAVAREA IX Navigation Warnings for Exercises/Missile Tests

[Reichsmarschall]

I hope it's a new hypersonic missile.

 

[Imran Khan]

Ghauri ko kahin kapra kupra mar ker test na ker lain...

Its seems ghuris are retiring now sir

 

[Reichsmarschall]

BTW where's @The Deterrent ?

 

[arjunk]

what you expecting ???? mujhy to shaheen test lagta hai bhai

Considering the range is closest to Ababeel, hopefully Ababeel.

 

[NAS & GOA]

The politico-military environment is ripe to impose deterrence...
Ababeel seems to be a weapon of choice

 

[Arsalan]

It's an official NOTAM but I am not sure I am at liberty to share it since the documents were shared with me in a personal capacity. Not sure why it isn't on the CAA website (or maybe it is, or maybe it will be soon).

@farok84 the NOTAM you posted is correct. I have seen the accompanying maps for it.

@HRK @Arsalan

None of these indicate the area or range as being claimed in some pictures (the one indicating a 2500-3000Km range). This one is not related to the picture being shared as far as i can see.

nothing to be happy even with that

Check inbox. The range of the corridor is 2200 km.

are we sure it will be a missile test I mean is it possible it could be a test related to some long range UAV as

- the launching point is almost in the middle of the country

- Somani in the south and Tila Jogian in north are only two know missile launching sites .....

- Still no NAVAREA warring is issued which mean what ever would be tested might not have any impact zone in the sea.

- Only issuance of NOTAM might indicates that it is something related to flying object ....

These are just few of my observations or you ca say some of my questions

Launch site could be DG Khan. Which is why I suspected it could be a training launch.

UAV test does not require clearing of airspace to unlimited altitude. It's just an aircraft that just needs flight plan.

We have had past tests with no navarea warnings by PN while notams were issued by CAA.

The dates could might as well pass with no announcements in case of failures/aborts or simply no desire to announce. So I wouldn't hold my breath.

BTW NOTAM is labelled SPD activity (in Arsalans inbox) which is more indication of missiles.

Plz explain

IL76 flying over Sadiqabad, Southern Punjab:

Could they be testing using the TEL in a different area or something?

AWACS/EW system?

 

[HRK]

AWACS/EW system?

may be but what is relation with the said NOTAM I think windjammer was trying to establish a link b/w these towo

 

[Tomcats]

I am unaware of any 3000km claim however the 2200/2300km one stands correct and is the more accurate one. Also regarding Fateh, as far as i know that is its regular movement, it mostly loops near Karachi along with Dolphin.
