Huzoor gustakhi maaf.You become a regional power when you have regional strike options

Which we already do. Our immediate regional targets, India, Afghanistan, Iran are well covered. So is Arabian sea. That is why Shaheen II was put into service. Now, we can agree or disagree on the actual calculation of the region, but we are talking about south asia region, home to more than 1.4 billion people, 1/6 of the world's population. When you have capability to annihilate a large section of world's population, and jeopardize food security and trade of another billion, you are regional power. In the South Asia region, no body tells us what we should do or what we do vis-a-vis our neighbors.

Hope it doesnot turn into my-foot, if the NESCOM engineers donot turn up with their foot at launch site in the coming days, with no test.

There are other factors including geo-strategic - the test needs to not mess the international order up, long range missiles have been ready for testing for a while.

This may be a 3 stage missile. First stage falling in Sindh. Second stage on the rectangle 230 km off karachi coast. Third stage never needs a safety zone as it falls off from space and burns on re-entry.
The second rectangle seems to be the target area for war head.

For the last time, Tilla Jogian/Jhelum was a launch site used in the late 90s for Ghauris, and hasn't been used since then. The entire Shaheen series utilizes the Somniani facility. So the range is not more than 3000km under any circumstance (according to the mentioned cordoned-off area coordinates).

For now, the only good news would be that Pakistan has developed an MRBM which can be sent approx. 700km up (and down again), but is yet to be tested.

Nothing Yet?

Wo bhi waddiya kisam ka

Plotted coordinates of cordoned-off areas on Google Earth, distance estimate is from Somniani. The path passes through the areas, lying in the middle of each.
