The test fire was conducted with successive launches of two missiles from a state-of-the-art multi-tube launcher. NASR, with a range of 60 km, and in-flight maneuver capability could carry nuclear warheads of appropriate yield, with high accuracy, an Inter-Services Public Relations statement says. This quick response system, which can fire a four-missile salvo ensures deterrence against threats in view of the evolving scenarios. Additionally NASR has been specially designed to defeat all known anti-tactical missile defence systems, adds the statement. According to official sources, the test was part of the short-range surface-to-surface ballistic missile [SRBMs] and medium-range ballistic missiles [MRBM] exercise that is set to be completed in three cycles by July this year. http://www.nation.com.pk/pakistan-n...istan-successfully-test-fires-hatf-ix-missile
