Indian Missile News And Discussion

[ramana]

Good news CG.



One has to look at the whole gamut of strategic thinking that went into the development of cruise missiles in the nuclear delivery system. Conventional payloads were an after thought for precision attack and not the primary role. And precision attack was to limit collateral damage in Third World actions to preserve legitimacy for use of force.



So Nirbhay is not just a precision conventional weapon. It changes the strategic weapons paradigm. TSP is not going to arm the Babur with conventional payloads. Neither should India. That will be self limiting.
