03 January, 2026: Pakistan Air Force has successfully conducted the flight test of the indigenously developed Taimoor Weapon System, marking another significant milestone in the advancement of national aerospace and defence capabilities. Taimoor Air-Launched Cruise Missile is capable of engaging enemy land and sea targets with high precision at a range of 600 kilometers, carrying a conventional warhead. Equipped with state-of-the-art navigation and guidance system, Taimoor is designed to fly at very low altitudes, enabling it to effectively evade hostile air and missile defence systems.
Its precision-strike capability significantly enhances the conventional deterrence and operational flexibility of Pakistan Air Force, further strengthening the country’s overall defence posture. The successful flight test underscores the technical maturity, innovation and self-reliance achieved by Pakistan’s defence industry. The launch was witnessed by senior officers of the Pakistan Armed Forces, along with distinguished scientists and engineers who played a pivotal role in the development of this advanced weapon system. Air Chief Marshal Zaheer Ahmed Baber Sidhu, Chief of the Air Staff, Pakistan Air Force, heartily congratulated the scientists, engineers and the entire PAF team on this remarkable achievement. He lauded their professional excellence, dedication and unwavering commitment to strengthening Pakistan’s defence capabilities. The Air Chief reaffirmed that such accomplishments are a testament to the nation’s resolve to achieve technological self-sufficiency and maintain a credible conventional deterrent in the evolving regional security environment. The successful test of the Taimoor weapon system reflects Pakistan Air Force’s continued pursuit of operational readiness, technological superiority and national security objectives. In this video, you will witness the power of Pakistan’s missile systems, their impressive range, and striking capabilities. The Nasr missile is a short-range tactical weapon designed to counter enemy defense systems effectively, while the Ababeel missile is a state-of-the-art ballistic missile capable of carrying multiple independently targetable warheads (MIRVs). These systems are vital components of Pakistan’s defense policy and play a crucial role in maintaining the strategic balance in South Asia.

China’s Lijian-1 rocket launched Pakistan’s remote-sensing satellite (PRSS-2), AIRSAT 03 and 04 satellites from a commercial aerospace innovation pilot zone on Oct. 19, 2025.
Pakistan has achieved a historic milestone with the successful launch of its first hyperspectral satellite (HS-1) from China’s Jiuquan Satellite Launch Centre on Sunday, according to the Space and Upper Atmosphere Research Commission (Suparco).
The breakthrough marks a major leap forward for Pakistan’s space program, enhancing its ability to conduct advanced environmental monitoring, precision agriculture, urban planning, and disaster management. Unlike conventional imaging satellites, HS-1 uses hyperspectral technology to capture hundreds of light bands, providing ultra-detailed insights into land, water, vegetation, and urban structures. Suparco said the data will be critical for tracking deforestation, pollution, glacial melt, and geo-hazard risks along CPEC routes. Suparco Chairman Muhammad Yousaf Khan hailed the mission as a “revolution in agricultural productivity and climate resilience,” while Project Director Mushtaque Hussain Soomro called it “a definitive leap in Pakistan’s space roadmap.” Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar and the Foreign Office congratulated the Pakistani and Chinese teams, calling the collaboration a testament to the Pakistan-China strategic partnership in peaceful space exploration.
Pakistan today conducted successful training launch of surface to surface ballistic missile Shaheen-II. The training launch was aimed at training of troops,
validating various technical parameters and performance evaluation of different sub-systems incorporated for improved accuracy and enhanced survivability. Today’s training launch was witnessed by senior officers from Strategic Plans Division, Army Strategic Forces Command, scientists and engineers of strategic organizations. Director General Strategic Plans Division appreciated the technical prowess, dedication and commitment of scientists who contributed towards this land mark achievement. The President, Prime Minister of Pakistan, Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee and Services Chiefs congratulated the scientists and engineers on this achievement.
May 24, 2019. Pakistan says it has successfully conducted a “training launch” of a ballistic missile capable of carrying both nuclear and conventional warheads up to 1,500 kilometers.
The move came amid Pakistan’s heightened military tensions with neighboring rival India, and it is seen by observers as part of the efforts Islamabad is making to keep pace with New Delhi’s massive investments in military hardware and advancements. After the indigenously produced Shaheen-II medium range rocket was fired into the Arabian Sea on Thursday, military spokesman Major-General Asif Ghafoor said that it is “a highly capable missile which fully meets Pakistan’s strategic needs towards maintenance of desired deterrence stability in the region.” Ghafoor noted the head of the military unit that oversees the country’s nuclear program witnessed the training launch along with other senior officials, scientists and engineers.
