Indigenous Air Defence system is in work from some years but a notion that it will be equivalent to S-400 is absurd.View attachment 803845
A senior Pakistani journalist Haroon Ur
Rasheed while discussing Indian S-400 Anti-Ballistic Missile talked about Pakistan's Defence system to counter India.
He stated Pakistan has HQ-9/P which is equivalent to the S-300 Air Defense System. Pakistan commissioned HQ-9/P that has enhanced the range of Pakistan Air Defense, since then entire Kashmir is under Pakistan's Air Defense umbrella.
Yet Pakistan is working on bigger and better technology he added. He revealed that Pakistan is working on an air defense system similar to S-400. Rasheed said he is not sure when we will officially announce it but we will see it in the coming years.
Haroon Rasheed no doubt that have sources and connection with defence forces and defence research community but he himself is a Political journalist with less technical understanding of defence systems, so by this claim of HAroon Rasheed we can only say that SAM system is in work it's not an official confirmation but it could be best possible tidbit about the existence of inhouse SAM program we can get from any civilian before official declaration.
