Pakistan Army successfully test-launches Fatah-2 ER hypersonic ballistic missile

 Pakistan Army successfully test-launched the Fatah-2 Extended Range (ER) hypersonic ballistic missile on Tuesday, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said.

According to ISPR, the missile is equipped with advanced navigation systems and state-of-the-art avionics, enabling it to engage targets with high precision.

The military’s media wing said the missile’s unique trajectory and manoeuvrability features allow it to defeat enemy missile defence systems.

The extended-range version of Fatah-2 will further enhance the Pakistan Army’s operational reach and its capability to engage targets at greater distances, ISPR said.

The test launch was witnessed by the Commander Army Rocket Force Command, senior Pakistan Army officers, scientists and engineers.

The Commander Army Rocket Force Command appreciated the dedication and technical capabilities of the scientists and engineers involved in the development of the weapon system.

President of Pakistan, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Chief of Army Staff and Chief of Defence Forces Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir, and the services chiefs congratulated the scientists and engineers on the successful test launch of the Fatah-2 ER missile system.
