Adm. Zafar Mahmood Abbasi was speaking during the an Oct. 6 change-of-command ceremony when he detailed measures he enacted, prioritizing “combat readiness and offensive capability” for the historically undersized force amid tension with India.

In addition to reorganizing the Navy’s force structure, he outlined acquisition and development programs, some of which were mentioned for the first time or had new details confirmed. These included:

- Expanding the Navy to more than 50 warships (more than doubling major surface combatants to 20, with plans for six additional large offshore patrol vessels).
- The apparent free transfer of a Chinese Yuan-class submarine to train Pakistani crews for its eight Hangor subs.
- Developing the hypersonic P282 ship-launched anti-ship/land-attack ballistic missile.
- Establishing the Naval Research and Development Institute to nurture indigenous design talent (it is presently engaged in programs such as the Jinnah-class frigate, Hangor-class subs, UAV jammers, directed-energy weapons, underwater sonar surveillance coastal defense systems, unmanned underwater vehicles and unmanned combat aerial vehicles).
- Replacing of the P-3C Orion patrol aircraft with 10 converted commercial jets, the first of which has been ordered.
- Acquiring medium-altitude, long-endurance unmanned combat aerial vehicles as well as 20 indigenous gunboats, which are to be commissioned by 2025.

Don't worry. Every country has enough weapons to make a zillion holes in the planet. The fanatics want to get it over and done with so they can reach their promised land. To them those who love life are cowards for not believing in what they do.

you wana make fun of us ? ..... :)
its not the first time indians trying to underestimate us ......
carry on and wait few years ..... ;-)
 
in development ......

Think India tested some Hypersonic missile vehicle a few months back too, but it was a cruise missile as opposed to a ballistic one.

US, Russia and China are still the leaders in this technology and it will take a lot of effort for other countries to break into this esteemed club.

our missile program is very secretive, becoz of that, its very hard to tell anything ......
just like our first MIRV missile test in 2016 .....
so it will take some years to know about its development .....
