Pakistan conducts successful test of 'indigenously developed' Fatah-1 guided MLRS: ISPR
64
Pakistan Army on Tuesday conducted a successful test of indigenously developed “Fatah-1” guided Multi Launch Rocket System (MLRS), according to a statement by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).
The military's media wing, in a statement, said the extended-range rocket system was capable of delivering a conventional warhead.
“The weapon system will give Pakistan Army capability of precision target engagement deep in enemy territory,” the ISPR added.
The president, prime minister, chairman joint chiefs of staff committee and the chief of army staff congratulated the participating troops and scientists on the successful launch.
The guided MLRS was primarily developed to hit targets without leaving behind unexploded ordnance. The extended range guided MLRS is a developed variant of the guided MLRS family, usually with an extended range of up to 150km.
The development of a conventional system by Pakistan seems to be a response to the Indian focus on the development of its conventional capabilities, besides improving response options to India’s Cold Start Doctrine.

Great move and excellent news sending shocking waves in the corridors of power at Old and New Delhi dominated by racist, liar, bigot, prejudiced, wicked and biased Modi and his fascist, crooked, cunning, corrupt, cruel, crafty and criminal R.S.S. and BJP cronies.

Time and technology spent on developing weapons of war, if invested in infrastructure, health and education, our country would have been among the developed countries of the world , our national policy should be based on peaceful bilateral relations with neighbouring countries and the world in general, peace is the only solution to world security, no war heads will ever solve the problem.

Why not export it or its components to make money.
I mean if there are some buyers for it and it is affordable for other countries especially african ones.
Then Pakistan can make decent money out of it because it is developed locally so does its parts.
