The exo-atmospheric interceptors meant to be used against ICBMs, which have lofted trajectories and fly at high altitudes, can also be used to intercept satellites. India’s space program is not as advanced compared to Russia, China and America, therefore labeling India, as space power is not rational. It has been reprinted with permission. Posted 2 years ago by Hassaan Ahmed Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that they have successfully test fired an Anti-Satellite (ASAT) missile. Anti-satellite weapons permit attacks on enemy satellites, blinding them or disrupting communications, as well as providing a technology base for intercepting ballistic missiles. Anti-satellite missiles are generally touted as a deterrence mechanism, rather than a primary attack vector. It is most likely that India used a modified version of the Prithvi missile, which India has been developing for more than a decade. With built-in MIRV technology, the missile has full capability to deter Indian second-strike capability from the Andaman and Nicobar islands and also penetrate the blanket coverage of S-400. While the timing of the test during India’s general election is no coincidence, the demo surely permitted Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to boast about India’s warfare capabilities in the near aboard. Target Satellite. The inboard guidance system enables Babur to use satellite GPS (Beidou) and INS/TERCOM/DSMAC system independent of satellite to carry out 500km of nuclear strikes. The Indian anti-satellite (ASAT) program utilized spin off technologies from Indian ABM systems. Pakistan issued a call against military threats in outer space on Wednesday, hours after India said it had shot down one of its own satellites in a demonstration of its growing power in space. In fact, Pakistan Air Force enjoys air superiority over India, especially; when Pakistan’s indigenous fighter jet JF-17 shot down two Indian Mig-21 Bisons. Mission Shakti, an anti-satellite missile test by India, was conducted on March 27, 2019. In fact, India targeting Chinese Beidou satellites would be considered a violation of China’s sovereignty and be classified an act of war; therefore India would think twice before this suicidal step. The third Pakistani masterpiece is a warhead carrier developed indigenously to counter the strategic imbalance created by India’s procurement of S-400 is Ababeel. However, in reality, India’s new space weapon is no way a threat to Pakistan’s balance of power in the region, especially, with regards to Pakistan nuclear and missile power. FY-1C was a weather satellite orbiting Earth in polar orbit at an altitude of about 865 km (537 mi), with a mass of about 750 kg (1650 lb). "I want to assure the world community that the new capability is not against anyone. Surely for a developing and poverty-ridden country like India, it is a big achievement but the entire buzz in the media does not change the balance of power in the region. India is signatory of Outer Space Treaty 1967 and according to Article 4 of the treaty, it has violated the basic principles of the United Nations Charter under which the treaty was formulated. Pakistan urges no militarisation of space after India tests anti-satellite missile India needed to build anti-satellite weapons "because adversary China has already done it in 2007," said Ajay Lele, senior fellow at the Institute for Defence Studies and Analyses. The development of anti-ballistic missiles under the … Many experts including Vipin Narang, an associate professor of political science at MIT, believe that India’s anti-satellite test probably did not have much to do with satellites as it was a mere demonstration. However, Pakistan respects international space laws and realizes the challenges to its economy but is also ready to safeguard its sovereignty against any misadventures by India. Pakistan is a sovereign and responsible nuclear nation and understands the socio-economic issues of the subcontinent but also knows the importance of survival needed in the international comity of nations. This is because Pakistan military uses China’s Beidou satellite navigation system, which orbits the Earth at 22,000 km and above. The missile has done more than just accelerate the space race with China. Fisher said the missile designated as the DN-1 was based on the SC-19 anti-satellite missile first tested in 2007, and that the DN-1’s booster appeared to be based on the KT-1 solid-fueled space launch vehicle, produced by China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation. Surely, mission Shakti was not launched for the collective benefit of the society as envisioned in the space treaties. This piece was first published in ‘Hilal’ Magazine. Pakistan issued a call against military threats in outer space on Wednesday, hours after India said it had shot down one of its own satellites in a demonstration of its growing power in space. With an official disclosed range of 550km, the missile is loaded with self-navigating technology and can fly on a non-ballistic very low altitude trajectory in order to avoid radar detection. With a range of 700km and other distinct features such as Terrain Contour Matching (TERCOM) and all-time Digital Scene Matching and Area Co-relation (DSMAC) technologies, which facilitate it to engage in different types of targets with pinpoint accuracy, the lethality of the weapon is recognized internationally. India is the 4th country after the US, Russia & China that have successfully tested A-SAT missile.
