Pakistan Successfully Tests Fatah-II Guided Multi-launch Rocket System

Pakistan proudly announced the test flight of the Fatah-II guided multi-launch rocket system. This cutting-edge weaponry, developed domestically, marks a pivotal advancement for the country’s military prowess. Equipped with state-of-the-art avionics, an advanced navigation system, and a distinctive flight trajectory, the Fatah-II stands as a testament to Pakistan’s technological innovation. The Pakistan Army’s media wing emphasized the system’s precision in targeting, boasting a remarkable reach of up to 400 kilometers (248 miles). The successful flight test, witnessed by esteemed senior officers from the armed services alongside scientists and engineers, underscores the collaborative effort and expertise invested in this project. Equipped with an advanced Integrated Fire Control System (CTI), Fatah-1 optimizes the missile’s targeting and guidance mechanism, ensuring smooth coordination between the missile and the launch platform. President Arif Alvi and senior military figures extended their heartfelt congratulations to the dedicated troops and scientists involved in this momentous achievement.

This triumph isn’t the first of its kind for Pakistan, having previously conducted successful tests of the Fatah-I and Ra’ad-II cruise missile in 2021. The country’s consistent efforts to strengthen its defense capabilities have been showcased on various international platforms. The Fatah series, mounted on an 8 military truck, offers versatility in engaging a spectrum of targets due to its compatibility with a wide range of ammunition. The Fatah-I’s capability to engage up to eight targets within a range of 8 km x 8 sq. km, spanning 70 km to 140 km, positions it as a crucial asset for precision strikes. Its first successful flight test in January 2021 showcased its ability to deliver a conventional warhead up to its maximum range, boasting an impressive Circular Error Probable (CEP) of less than 50 meters. Equipped with an advanced Integrated Fire Control System (CTI), Fatah-1 optimizes the missile’s targeting and guidance mechanism, ensuring smooth coordination between the missile and the launch platform.
