the question here is they will fire the missile from sonmiani or tila jogiyaan ?
It is indeed unusual.Isn't this unusual for Pakistan to issue a five day notice?
This one is a very long notice with launch window of 4 hours each day for five days.
Usually it's two days notice tops.
Because its safer to launch from the coast. Pakistan can launch past Madagascar if it wants to, the Indian Ocean is available to us.It doesn't make sense. Why don't you use the empty thousands of miles of Chinese mountains and fire this from one end to 4k-5k into it if that's the purpose?
See this is the issue. Its being fired right off the end of Pakistan. Why wouldn't you fire this from close to the border of Afghanistan to the end point, that would give you a few more thousands of miles easy if you wanted to test that long range. Or ask the Chinese to throw it in their mountaneous regions that are empty.
If you're referring to the INS calibration, its fed the geodesic model of the region to it always compensates for that.@The Deterrent I have a question. Our tests, especially the long range ones, are always conducted East to West whereas in actual war they need to be fired West to East. How do we compensate for this?
If it’s a new longer range one than almost certainly Tilla.the question here is they will fire the missile from sonmiani or tila jogiyaan ?

If you're referring to the rotation of the Earth, yes it effects the missile's trajectory if not accounted for, but the firing solution is computed by using the entire model so required changes are compensated by the mission computer. Thats how every nation does it.
Tests coming up, long range and THEY will be the ones collecting some valuable data. I think the activity you have noticed is related to this.Navy guys are really gearing up. @RASHID MEHMOOD Sir something going on behind the scenes or is there is a specific threat?

Probable 3rd Shaheen-III test launch.
Weather must have played a role in this!!Isn't this unusual for Pakistan to issue a five day notice?
This one is a very long notice with launch window of 4 hours each day for five days.
Usually it's two days notice tops.
My own back on enevelop calculations, its almost exactly 4000 KM from Tilla Space Port, (33 20 N, 73 17 E)
Sonmiani! Tila is not being used currently.the question here is they will fire the missile from sonmiani or tila jogiyaan ?
That was (Tila i mean) active mostly when AQ had a say and the liquid fuel ones were in big time!sonmiani.... now we don't fire missiles from tila jogiyaan
It is not even a small fraction of the pollution spread by the even a medium sized ship. We are not testing live warhead.Why are we polluting ocean
New missile? :obarber
Maybe cause to us 200 mil Pakistani's are more important than fish.Why are we polluting ocean
Pakistan stopped launches from Tilla back in 2000. The facility was moved to a more western location and is used to launch the Ghauris to this date.If it’s a new longer range one than almost certainly Tilla.
Nope, nothing is retrieved from the ocean in case of a ballistic missile launch. Its too difficult to spot, let alone recover for anyone.As for the delay, when missiles are fired into the Ocean, Navy ships are detailed to go and recover debris. Since said debris if it falls into enemy hands can reveal a lot to them. Presumably the delay is getting assets there.
Simulated data is enough for testing that, the entire system doesn't needs to be physically launched in order to verify the functionality of earth rotation models.But sir, the mission computer needs to be tested for the West to East case! Yes, I am referring to Earth's rotation.
To add to that, the Shaheen series has been launched from the coast since the 2000s.That was (Tila i mean) active mostly when AQ had a say and the liquid fuel ones were in big time!
That changed and so did the test fire range!
Or any other Shaheen series BM. Just saying.Nothing stops us from testing zarb harbah zarba babur harbour and barber in the same designated area btw
I have lost track of the names at this point lol
Or Taimur..Tipu...ICBM and Ababeel-3 with 10 MIRVPakistan stopped launches from Tilla back in 2000. The facility was moved to a more western location and is used to launch the Ghauris to this date.

Only pointy missiles will be tested. Babur is not pointy enoughNothing stops us from testing zarb harbah zarba babur harbour and barber in the same designated area btw
