Pakistan Successfully Tested Babur 3 Cruise Missile launch from Submarine : ISPR

Deterrent, Will we see an increase in the stated range of Shaheen-III as well once it is launched with MIRVs? Putting MIRVs on a 2750km missile without any subsequent change (-ve/+ve) in the range of the missile doesn't seem very believable.
No. You can believe whatever you please to, but that is how it is going to be. Expect negative changes as well.

Found a technical explanation :

Actually, the submerged portion of the launch is on a column of compressed air, which gives enough boost to cut through about 150 feet of water before breaching the surface, where the rocket motors ignite.

The air is compressed by a small, contained explosion, something like the explosion in the cylinder of a gasoline powered automobile, but in this cases uses a column of super heated steam.

The inside of the missile tube is dry. After the outer hatch lifts away, a seal at the top of the tube is blasted away by a small charge. In a split second, before water can flood the tube, the shot of compressed air boosts the missile away from the sub. The momentum is sufficient to push the missile to the surface. Inside the missile, when sensors detect deceleration, the rocket motors ignite.
That gets us out of the water - but what happens next?

If you watch enough missile launches, you'll notice that many times the missile appears to be doing a bit of a dance before it finally flies true. That's owed to the uncertainty of launch conditions; sea currents, wind, variances in the column of compressed air, etc. In the equipment section of the missile, inertial controls detect the hull's deviation from course, and send correcting pulses to the TVC (thrust vector control) which steers the missile by changing the angle of thrust exhaust from the gimbaled motors.

Once on steady flight, an onboard camera starts looking for a certain star to use as a point of reference for celestial navigation -same principle as mariners used centuries ago. Once locked onto the star, corrections are made as required to keep the missile on course. Perhaps curiously, while GPS systems are carried on some vehicles, they are not part of the guidance package, for the simple reason that the GPS system, itself, might be compromised or out of service in the event of hostilities. Their purpose, where used, is to verify accuracy and refine accuracy of the other guidance instruments.
Just FYI, what you're referring to here is an SLBM launch.

Whooaaa ........ Sea of education here that even few pages back I read that water would have dragged extreme force on Babur due to fins...... I mean the high level of expertise indeed...... As I was off the opinion that fins activates/unfolds once Babur is out of water and attained a required height.... However, experts are experts so what can I say.

Though many of friends have done well here but still, it would have been great to hear Arnab on this with all that noisy, insisting and no-logic debate and analysis.

Seems like we are having a field day. The name is BABUR-III.

Most of these "experts" haven't seen a submarine or a missile in real,
and the only water they have ever seen is probably a community swimming pool.

So instead of wasting time in arguing with these "experts", we should focus on a healthy discussion among ppl who actually know what they are talking about.

By the way is it first time that they have shown a Missile hitting its target or they have shown even before ????????????

1- early days video of shaheen-1 (now no more available)
2- early test video of Nasr .....

I have never seen indians so disoriented and dumb as i have seen them after launch of Babur 3. Is this the nation which claims to be a super power by 2030? You loosers cant even swallow achievements of Pakistan yet you try compete with like of China and US.

BC even we launch Babur 3 up your arse hole you will still try to prove it fake.
What else do you expect??!?

10 Years !
Your Patience...is Outstanding !



Provided the Launch Platform was Docked at the Coast !
Quite contradictory is the fact that Nuclear Subs ( in Nuclear Role) tend to stay as far as possible !

Even if Submarine is 200KM deeper in the ocean, that available 500 is more than enough to target every vital asset around the indian coastline. More importantly, Babur-III eliminated advantage of "depth" India used to enjoy. Now even the deepest corner of India is as exposed as bordering territory with Pakistan. Now that is a big change it the game.

All throughout the thread....you have been blatantly rude. I don't know much about missile tech and radars but knowledge should make you more humble, not arrogant.

Brother, can you send me a link to your development community. The conversation has been interesting and I wouldn't mind finding out a little more.

Very happy to see one more nail in the coffin of delusional nemesis's hegemonic dreams.

One more nail in the coffin of war by design by the sick minds. Pak has made war just more impossible with this test.

This is more importantly one giant step in the direction of Pak becoming a South West Asian regional power of global consequence.

PNS can now protect CPEC from deep in the Afro-Asian Ocean. Well done!

Time to focus on the Pak economy and soical development. Anything less than 3Trillion economy in a couple of decades is unacceptable.

All the very best.

This Fake Missile is truly a one more gaurantee for Peace.

Pak, please, keep Faking such developments....but never in the economy!

Youtube has been fulled with Indian "fake" news broadcast videos. It seems the reality of Babur-3 and many other secret missile development projects(!) make them worried much. To neutralize the deterrence of Pakistani Babur family missile reality over the public, They need to spread "fake" stories all around but They also know that Babur-2/3 missiles on land and naval platform is a big headache to anyone acting hostile against nuclear Pakistan. It is not important who they are. That's all about protecting the benefit of own nation... Next step should certainly be some defensive assets such as SAM and Radars.

Don't worry bro. We have been laughing at their denials. Their main ally the USA has slapped them in the face by acknowledging the launch. How embarrassing can it get?

Indian denial is meaningless. Most important is that Pakistan is a strong nuke triad power. A feat we have longed for a long time.

No doubt. A long range SAM system along with radars are only a matter of time. CPEC needs it and Pakistan needs it.
