Pak to upgrade its missile power by adding Chinese supersonic missile | | | Pakistan has evinced interest in procuring latest Chinese supersonic missile which was being seen better than BrahMos, which India has procured under the India-Russia deal. A Chinese mining company has claimed to have successfully test-fired a supersonic missile, touted as a potential competitor to the Indo-Russian joint venture BrahMos missile, according to the Chinese state media. The test conducted the other day at a discreet location in North China verified the launch, power and flight control systems, while indicating that Beijing's all-weather ally, Pakistan could be one of its buyers. Once again Pakistan could be the main buyer of the supersonic missile which Islamabad may use in times of war against any country particularly against India. This way China is trying to rebuild the basic defence weaponary for Pakistan so that in some abnormal times it could be used against China's enemy, that is India. Pakistan knows it fully well that future wars are not fought by men, by the personnel of the Armed forces, but by the machines, fighters, long range guns, missiles and last of all nuclear weapons. India too knows it fully well that is the moral behind India banking on the Russian, French and the US deals and Pakistan banking on the military support from China. But there is a difference. While India has to spend money, billion of dollars, Pakistan has had some military pact with China under which latest weapons are being exported to Pakistan free of cost. And in return Pakistan has gifted some areas, especially in he north, where China has set up and may be setting up military bases. This is the deal between China and Pakistan. Well India may raise the issue of Pakistan being given supersonic missile during the period Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping may meet one-to one in a land neither China nor India. Modi may express concern over the way Pakistan has been acquiring latest weapons from China that too without spending any money from its exchequer. All parameters for the supersonic flight of the HD-1 missile achieved their estimated values, it quoted a statement released by Guangdong Hongda Blasting Company located in southern China. "The test flight shows that the HD-1's core components are now mature, with its aerodynamic design, materials and overall structure already proven viable," Wei Dongxu, a Beijing-based military analyst, told the daily. Hongda independently invested in and developed the HD-1 missile, the statement said. Well India is not going to succumb to China for exporting supersonic missile to Pakistan because hitherto India has piled up a lot of missiles and nuclear weapons besides latest fighter planes which may match the Pakistani weapons. |
