The Pakistan Army successfully launched the indigenously developed Fateh‑4 ground‑launched cruise missile on September 30.
The missile has a range of 750 kilometres and is equipped with advanced avionics and state‑of‑the‑art navigational aids. It makes use of terrain‑hugging features to evade enemy missile defence systems and can engage targets with high precision.
As part of Army Rocket Force Command, Fateh‑4 will enhance the reach, lethality and survivability of the Pakistan Army’s conventional missile systems.
The launch was witnessed by the Chief of General Staff, senior officers of the Pakistan Armed Forces, and the scientists and engineers involved in the project. The President, the Prime Minister, the Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee and the services chiefs congratulated the troops, scientists and engineers on the successful training launch.
