Pakistan on Tuesday conducted a successful training launch of a Fatah Series surface-to-surface cruise missile with a range of 750 kilometers, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a statement.
Equipped with advanced avionics and state of the art navigational aids, this weapon system is capable of evading enemy’s missile defense system due to terrain hugging features and engaging targets with high precision.
As part of Army Rocket Force Command, Fatah-4 will further enhance the reach, lethality and survivability of Pakistan Army’s conventional missile systems.
Today’s launch was witnessed by Chief of General Staff, Senior officers from Pakistan Armed Forces, dedicated scientists and engineers.
The President, Prime Minister of Pakistan, Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee and Services Chiefs have also congratulated the participating troops, scientists and engineers on successful conduct of Fatah-4’s training fire.
Earlier in May, Pakistan test-fired a Fatah Series surface-to-surface missile with a range of 120 kilometers.
In May last year, the army conducted a test-launch of Fatah-II guided rocket system which had a range of 400km.
