Pakistan Nuclear Arsenal

Pakistan maintains a credible nuclear deterrence strategy, with a focus on ensuring second-strike capability and countering conventional military threats. Its nuclear arsenal includes land-based ballistic missiles, submarine-launched capabilities, and air-delivered warheads. With a doctrine of "full-spectrum deterrence," Pakistan aims to maintain strategic stability in the region.

The Shaheen-III is Pakistan’s longest-range ballistic missile, capable of striking targets over 2,750 km away. Designed to counter regional threats, it provides Pakistan with extended deterrence and strategic strike capability. It features high accuracy and the potential to carry multiple warheads in the future.

The Babur is a nuclear-capable cruise missile with stealth features and terrain-hugging capabilities, allowing it to evade enemy defenses. With a range of over 700 km, it can be launched from land, air, or sea, enhancing Pakistan’s second-strike capability. Its precision and low radar signature make it a crucial part of Pakistan’s strategic deterrence.
