Apparently,you didn't get me...I was talking about making different versions of each missile system...which is expensive...
i already have stated that each version varies in range and maximum load of warhead it can carry
I was talking about Ghauri 3 and Shaheen 3...
Ghauri 1 and 2 are operational...
Sane goes for Ghauri 3 and Shaheen 3 that one is liquid fuel and the other one is solid fuel also both have different ranges and payloads similarly like the previous versions of both .adds to diversity which is always a good thing to have
If we develop and fire an ICBM against US/NATO....(which is the only possible enemy left,since India is already and Israel will be in range)
we will have to face nuclear retaliation from a couple of countries...after which there is no chance of survival..
Do you think we have to worry about what NATO and other's think when it comes to our national security matters?Also as far as them is concerned they were even not happy when China provided us with M-11 or when we tested Ghauri and Shaheen but did it matter?
US/NATO has always been biased when it comes to Pakistan and we have seen their double standard so if they have double crossed us in the past ,so whats the gurantee they will not again? You have to take the advantage of changing paradigm ,NATO is in Afghanistan and they need us more then us need them so why not to exploit conditions to our benefits before we loose this luxury
Once NATO leaves Afghanistan you will again see their attitude towards Pakistan which will be even more negative then now.So we have to suffer sooner or later anyway so why not by doing everything on our own terms and conditions
