Pakistan successfully tests Shaheen-II
RAWALPINDI: Pakistan conducted successful training launch of intermediate range Shaheen-II (Hatf-VI) ballistic missile on Thursday. The missile is capable of carrying nuclear and conventional warheads to a range of 1500 KM.

An ISPR press release said the successful launch was the culminating point of the Field Training Exercise of Army Strategic Forces Command which was aimed at ensuring operational readiness of a Strategic Missile Group, besides re-validating different design and technical parameters of the weapon system.
Thursday’s launch was witnessed by Director General Strategic Plans Division, Lieutenant General Zubair Mahmood Hayat, Commander Army Strategic Forces Command, Lieutenant General Obaid Ullah Khan, Chairman NESCOM, Mr Muhammad Irfan Burney, senior officers from the strategic forces, scientists and engineers of strategic organizations.

Addressing the participant troops and scientists at the launch area, Director General Strategic Plans Division, Lieutenant General Zubair Mahmood Hayat, congratulated them on achieving yet another milestone towards consolidation of full spectrum credible minimum deterrence. He appreciated the operational preparedness and readiness of Army Strategic Forces Command, which made the successful launch of Shaheen-II Weapon System possible.

Lieutenant General Zubair Mahmood Hayat showed his full confidence in the existing robust Strategic Command and Control System. He further reiterated that Pakistan is a peace loving nation having no aggressive designs against any one. Pakistan’s Strategic Forces are fully capable of safeguarding security of the motherland against any aggression.

The successful test launch and achievement of this range milestone has also been warmly appreciated by the President and Prime Minister of Pakistan who congratulated the scientists and engineers on their outstanding achievement.

What is to be noted is that it was a TRAINING LAUNCH, confirming active duty status of Shaheen II. the test was conduct in field training exercises so we may see some more tests in coming days.

We have already scheduled multiple tests of our BM even before any announcement of Pakistani tests .

So you can apply the bold part to yourself .
 
Few questions to informed members
  • Is that unusual that missile was launched towards a sea born target?
  • Was that a stationary target or moving one?
  • Is that a step towards land-to-sea attack missile?
  • What is reason of clearing 3500KM if missile range was 1500KM?
  • Is that any "A" version?

3. No

4. Two different NOTAMS ....... first one for 3500km is just postponed

Few questions to informed members
  • Is that unusual that missile was launched towards a sea born target?
Absolutely not, its being done since the introduction of the Shaheen series.
  • Was that a stationary target or moving one?
There is no "target", only a stationary impact point.
  • Is that a step towards land-to-sea attack missile?
Absolutely not, it is a misconception. The test was carried out over water because of safety precautions and larger range.
  • What is reason of clearing 3500KM if missile range was 1500KM?
Nobody cleared 3500km. Where did you get that from?
  • Is that any "A" version?
Nope, its the initial production version of Shaheen-II, not an upgrade.

  • Is that unusual that missile was launched towards a sea born target? => No, Shaheen series missiles are always test fired at sea, other countries also fir missiles at sea take India as an example
  • Was that a stationary target or moving one? => Coordinates of Stationary target is used to determine the successful test launch
  • Is that a step towards land-to-sea attack missile? => It was a 'Training Launch', so no this is nothing like land to sea attack missile.
  • What is reason of clearing 3500KM if missile range was 1500KM? => as per navarea warning related to this test target point was set at 1500 KM distance .... 3500 KM area was notified earlier for the test of different system which apparently got cancelled
  • Is that any "A" version? => Again a simple 'TRAINING LAUNCH' so no A or B
