quite funny affair going on with Pakistan, Pakistani and their obsession with India.
And how exactly does your own 'chronology of events' below indicate an 'obsession with India?
First they said that something experimental was tested. Ok
Then they said it is missile(S). Ok
Then they said more then one target was taken out. Ok
Then test took place 19 & 21 Dec. Interesting but possible.
Then they said that ship and sub launch weapons. Ok.
Then it said nuke capable. Ok every thing in Pak is nuke capable.
Then some aircraft testing weapons.Ok
Looks like things going to far.

for this cracker they were jumping on top of each other

That particular image is of one test firing of the C-80X missile series from the recently acquired missile boats.

I believe the statement posted earlier referred to multiple tests across multiple platforms.

"WD"



I think we only know half the story.


ISLAMABAD: Pakistan's Navy successfully test-fired a series of missiles and torpedoes Friday in what it called a message to "nefarious" forces — an apparent reference to longtime rival India.
While the two nuclear-armed neighbors have taken slow steps toward restarting peace talks, they also have a history of using weapons tests as a form of diplomatic saber rattling.
The missiles were launched from aircraft, submarines and ships in the Arabian Sea
. It was not immediately clear if the weapons were capable of carrying nuclear warheads.
Both countries regularly test their missile systems, and usually notify each other ahead of such launches in keeping with a diplomatic agreement.
But Friday's launches were followed by a navy statement saying the tests showed the navy's commitment to "defending the motherland." It added: "This strike capability would also send a message of deterrence to anyone harboring nefarious designs against Pakistan." Such statements have been rare in recent years, as the two nations have struggled to keep their peace process limping along. Late last month, India and Pakistan held their first official talks since the 2008 Mumbai terrorist attacks, which India blamed on the Pakistan-based militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba.
It was not clear whether the statement was an intentional attempt to stir the diplomatic waters, but similar wording has been used in the past to send warnings to New Delhi.
Other Pakistani officials refused to expand on the navy statement.
Indian officials could not immediately be reached for reaction. However, Indian Home Minister Palaniappan Chidambaram said at a Friday speech in New Delhi that Pakistan has been a "very difficult neighbor" since independence from Britain in from 1947.
He added, though, that "war is not an option." "We must talk when we can, at other times we have to simply be vigilant and alert," Chidambaram said.
India and Pakistan have fought three wars since they gained independence.
The two countries began talks aimed at resolving their differences over the Himalayan region of Kashmir and other disputes in 2004. India put the peace process on hold soon after the Mumbai attacks.
Pakistan is trying seven men on charges they planned and carried out the Mumbai attacks, which left 166 people dead, but the militant network blamed for the assault continues to operate relatively freely in Pakistan.

Nice job with the over-sized smiley, but the Navy's statement only referred to 'nefarious forces' (and obviously the testing of any weapons system would be to deter potentially hostile or nefarious forces) - the reference to India is an addition by the editorial staff/author of the report.

And what exactly are you trying to point out with the two images above?

No thanks - we have been through this charade already when you concocted some nonsensical excuse of 'read between the lines' when I pointed out that the article you yourself posted (quoting a study of the Shaheen 1A by Indian scientists) clearly stated that the analysis those scientists performed was based on images taken of the Shaheen-1A launch and previous Shaheen-1 launches, and therefore contradicted your claims that the analysis was done using LRTR and/or other tracking capabilities.

So, if you actually have a point to make, unlike last time, lets dispense with the riddles and distractions shall we?

they have same stuff but they never jump over one another.
Indonesia to equip navy with Chinese-made missiles

This is not news per se, as two sets of YJ-82 (C-802) were installed on two Indonesian PB-57 patrol boat back in March 2008 in a 11 USD million deal
as per

Later blog says that Indonesia to produce C-802 at home

China Defense Blog: Indonesia to produce C-802 at home

So launching C-802 by foreign country is not a big deal, Pak has join club late.
