The Pakistan Army has achieved a significant milestone with the successful test launch of the Fatah-II guided rocket system, boasting a range of 400 kilometres. This new addition to the army’s arsenal marks a substantial upgrade in both reach and lethality.
What sets the Fatah-II rocket system apart is its advanced guidance system, transforming it into a precision weapon capable of delivering devastating strikes with pinpoint accuracy. This enhancement in lethality is further bolstered by trajectory modes and terminal guidance technology, allowing the rocket to evade enemy anti-ballistic missile systems effectively.
The Fatah-II rocket system is slated for induction into the artillery divisions of the Pakistan Army. Its primary role will be to engage deep targets with stand-off precision, significantly augmenting the army’s capabilities in conventional warfare scenarios.
The successful flight test of the Fatah-II rocket system was witnessed by top military brass, including the army chief, senior officers from all three services, as well as scientists and engineers involved in the project. This demonstrates the high level of importance attached to the development and deployment of this cutting-edge military technology.
Following the test, accolades poured in from the highest echelons of government and military leadership. The president, prime minister, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff committee, and the army chief extended their congratulations to the troops and scientists involved in this remarkable achievement.
Looking Ahead The Pakistani Army is ready to reinforce its defensive capabilities and dissuade prospective enemies by introducing the Fatah II rocket system. This progress has underlined Pakistan’s commitment to securing its own security and defending its sovereignty in the face of any threats.
