Pakistan Navy successfully test fired indigenously developed Submarine Launched version of Cruise Missile (SLCM) BABUR.
The missile was tested from an underwater dynamic platform off Pakistan’s coast in the Arabian Sea and flew to strike a target at an undisclosed location.
This is only the second time that Pakistan has announced a test of the submarine launched Babur-III missile, with the first test being conducted in January 2017.
The Babur-3 is capable of “delivering various types of payloads” and uses “underwater controlled propulsion.”
