The Pakistan military announced the successful test of an indigenously developed anti-ship system, the Taimoor air-launched cruise missile, which can neutralise sea-based threats at an extended range.
The test comes just a week after the Pakistan Navy successfully tested a locally developed anti-ship ballistic missile to engage targets at an extended range.
The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) stated that the Taimoor missile executed its mission with exceptional precision, validating Pakistan Navy's combat capability to detect, target and decisively neutralise enemy sea-based threats at extended ranges.
The test marks a pivotal elevation of national defence capability, further strengthening Pakistan Armed Forces' multi-dimensional coordinated strike posture and capabilities in the conventional domain.
Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, and other services chiefs congratulated the country's scientists and engineers on achieving the significant milestone.
