Thanks "SajeevJino" .

That is the reference I had been searching for about Pakis getting ready made Tomhawk missiles in their lap, which had misfired in 1998.

Babur is their first cousin.

If and untested missile (even without a warhead) was brought back close to the launch point, it must show the confidence of its makers!!

as per trishul blog, the missile traveled 1157km. the flight duration was for 80 minutes.

The missile components must have been tested umpteen times as "Lakshya PTA" test. :rofl:. The same way numerous Prithvi tests are still required.

if you take a look at LED at the background you will find the way point on the left and another interesting monitor at the right bottom which, it appears to be 3D way points path. This pic has been taken at the time of count down as the clock shows the count down at the launch site.

Rumored to be a reversed engineered tomahawk ? Found in Afghanistan?
Yes, that is what is believed. They also probably got help from NK engineers who studied those missiles that fell in Af-Pak.
During Afghan Intervention some of the Tomahawks Crashed inside Bakistani Territory .

Within 4 years of Period tomahawks become Father of Bakistani Babur

Pakistan Said To Be Dissecting U.S. Cruise Missile That Misfired




KARACHI, Pakistan - Pakistani scientists and weapons experts are studying components salvaged from an American cruise missile that fell to earth last week in southern Pakistan, security sources said yesterday, expressing optimism that they can unlock technological secrets that will aid Pakistan's missile program.

Officials said experts associated with Pakistan's civilian and military missile programs were inspecting the guidance system, onboard computer and propulsion system of the Tomahawk missile, which was fired Aug. 20 in the U.S. attack on terrorist camps in Afghanistan but fell short of its target.


Some sources indicated that information from the missile might be shared with China, Pakistan's ally.

A Pakistani official speaking on condition of anonymity said the find was "a jackpot" that included the satellite global-positioning system and other technological improvements made to Tomahawks since the 1991 Persian Gulf War.

Pakistan reported earlier this week that it had recovered the missile Saturday near Kharan, about 370 miles south of the targeted camps. Pentagon officials have declined to confirm that a missile had landed in Pakistan.

The Pakistani sources noted with some surprise that the missile was largely intact when it was discovered. Sources in Washington said that might be explained by the fact that, because the arming mechanism on the Tomahawk is not activated until minutes before the missile reaches its target, the missile had not detonated.

Retired Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney said he doubted the Pakistani claims. When cruise missiles crash, he said, "its like dropping a Waterford crystal glass. They are designed to do a lot of things, but they aren't designed to bounce."

U.S. defense officials also said the Tomahawk's technology already is widely available.

Do Not we know where is that victory even today ? It has landed them into Kurdistan .. and may be further away...

That is exactly what is not called victory ... me thinks
First Iraq war was in 1991 , not the present one.
