Even the Times of India has got a comment on it.

WASHINGTON: Pakistan has doubled its nuclear arms stockpile to 110 warheads, developing new weapons to deliver them and significantly accelerating production of uranium and plutonium for bombs to edge ahead of India.

Islamabad's nuclear weapons stockpile now totals more than 110 deployed weapons in a sharp jump from an estimated 30-80 weapons fours years ago, 'Washington Post' has reported.

"Pakistan has expanded its nuclear weapons production capability rapidly", the Post quoted David Albright president of the Institute for Science and International Security as saying.

Albright said that based on accelerated production of plutonium and highly enriched uranium, Pakistan may now have an arsenal of up to 110 weapons.

The non-government US analyst said that while continuing to produce weapons-grade uranium at two sites, Islamabad has sharply increased its production of plutonium, enabling it to make lighter warheads for more mobile delivery system.

Pakistan has developed a new missile Shaheen II, with a range of 1,500 miles which is about to go into operation deployment. The country has also developed nuclear capable land and air launched cruise missiles, the Institute said in a new report.

"The Pakistanis have significantly accelerated production of uranium and plutonium for bombs and developed new weapons to deliver them. After years of approximate weapons parity, experts said, Pakistan has now edged ahead of India, its nuclear-armed rival", Washington Post said.

The paper said while Pakistan has produced more nuclear-armed weapons, India is believed to have larger existing stockpiles of such fissile material for future weapons.

Dubbing Pakistan as one of the world's most unstable region, Post said an escalation of nuclear arms race in South Asia possess a dilemma for Obama Administration.

It said in politically fragile Pakistan, the Administration is caught between fears of proliferation or possible terrorist attempts to seize nuclear materials and Pakistani suspicions that the US aims to control or limit its weapons programme and favours India.

Quoting Pakistan's Defense attache at its embassy in Washington, Post said the number of Pakistani nuclear weapons are heavily deployed near its border with India.

The paper said that in December 2008, Peter Lavoie, US national intelligence officer for South Asia, told NATO officials that "despite pending economic catastrophe, Pakistan is producing nuclear weapons at a faster rate than in any other country in the world".

They just have 10 more nukes in out arsenal.


Anyways, a great news, and I still am expecting this amount to double by 2016, and also addition of Shaheen IIIs and Ghauri IIIs. Tipu (or Taimur) ICBM will also be, Inshallah, in service from 2017.

(These figures are my estimate, if any proper ones are known, please update me)

and it is not only nukes like india it has top technology with out nukes very very hard for opponent to counter our nukes only one way before they launch they should be neutralize but with PA it is even more hard for enemy once it is launched INSHAHALLAH it will be bye bye for enemies of pakistan

 

[Spring Onion]

Then Pakistan is doomed in an everlasting quest for parity.

(solution: you guys can declare that you're Central Asian's)

Atleast we have a good number of population to prove our declaration be. BUT you despite your numerous attempts can prove that .


anyway.

Hi, I just reread the article and caught an interesting phrase, "Those figures make Pakistan the world's fifth-largest nuclear power, ahead of legal powers France and Britain. "

Notice the insinuation of western entitlement in this phrase, "legal". France and Britain are legally-allowed to have nukes... If I recall my history, the US helped the UK, which in turn helped France. Take care.

yeh i also noticed that too and i was laughing because the last time we checked almost all of them have got the nukes through illegal means

its good to have study on pakistani nukes.
world needs full concentration on pakistani nukes and let the west to create propaganda about them.
it provides oppurtunity to india,to increase the arsenal without coming in eyes of west.
we just need silence wrt our nukes,which we are getting

 

[ares]

These kind of studies actually harmful for Pakistan

While Pakistani poster boys are cheering that Pakistan has more nukes India..what rest of the world sees is one of the worlds most volatile states, producing nuclear weapons faster than anyone else world.

And there goes Pakistan's ambition of being treated as same league as India..as a responsible nuclear power..and with it goodies like entrance in NSG, civilian nuclear agreement or even joining NPT as a nuclear state.

Are you sure?
Your DRDO scientists are leaving so how can you develop nukes?

 

[Rafi]

Nuclear arms make less likely war or invasion, in fact if Saddam truly had WMD would there have been a Second Persian Gulf War, highly doubtful, any ways the National Command Authority, has plans for the destruction of the adversary.
