Pakistan Developing Long-Range Missile Capable of Hitting USA
Pakistan is reportedly developing a new long-range missile capable of hitting targets in the United States, according to a recent report by the US-based think tank, the Institute for Science and International Security (ISIS).
The missile, known as the Ghauri-III, is said to have a range of over 3,000 kilometers, making it capable of striking targets in the United States, including major cities such as New York and Los Angeles.
The development of the Ghauri-III is seen as a significant escalation of Pakistan’s missile capabilities, and is likely to be viewed with concern by the United States and other countries in the region.
Pakistan has been developing its missile program for several years, and has already tested several types of missiles, including the Hatf-IV, which has a range of around 1,200 kilometers.
The Ghauri-III is believed to be a more advanced version of the Hatf-IV, and is likely to be equipped with a more powerful warhead and improved guidance systems.
The development of the Ghauri-III is likely to be seen as a response to India’s development of its own long-range missile capabilities, including the Agni-V, which has a range of over 5,000 kilometers.
Pakistan and India have a long history of rivalry and tension, and the development of long-range missile capabilities by both countries is likely to increase the risk of conflict in the region.
The Ghauri-III is expected to be tested in the coming months, and its development is likely to be closely watched by the international community.
