Was India's missile incident was an accident..!?
The commotion was sparked by an indian missile that crashed into the Pakistani data-border due to a technical glitch. What protocol is followed for such tests? Under what circumstances are they likely to go wrong? The indian Defense Ministry regretted that the missile had accidentally landed inside pakistan due to a technical glitch. During the test, it is very rare for the missile to change direction and go wrong. Under the prior notice of air testing of ballistic missiles signed in 2005, each country must provide advance notice of other ground or sea-launched missile tests. Prior to testing, flight pilots and ship captains must notify air Missions (NOTAM) or Navigational Warning (NAVAREA), respectively, to warn.
In addition, the country testing the missile must ensure that its launch site is not within 40 km of the international Boundary (IB) or Line of Control (LoC) and that the planned attack area is not less than 75 km.The route should not cross the international data-border or data-border control summer. The test country must notify the other country three days in advance that the missile test may take place within these 5 days. Prior notice must be given by the Foreign office and the High Commission. Pakistan's military spokesman, Major General babur Iftikhar, said that the operation has nothing to do with the director generals of the indian and Pakistani armies. No information has been received from the indian side about this. Although there is an agreement between the two countries to share information on ballistic missile tests, they do not share information on such missiles.
The Pakistani side calls the missile from india a supersonic missile. Some experts have speculated that this is a test of the BrahMos missile, one of India's flagship missiles developed in conjunction with Russia. The missile changed direction in midair. According to pakistan, the missile, launched from Sirsa, 104 km from the data-border, traveled about 70-80 km inside the indian data-border and headed towards the indian Army's Mahajan Field firing base. But, it suddenly changed direction and infiltrated Pakistan. Reported traveling 124km within our data-borders and falling to the ground. Retired air Marshal Anil Chopra, chairman of the delhi air Power Studies (CAPS) think tank, said the missile had very few reasons to change its direction. According to reports, the missile, which was flying in the marked direction, suddenly changed course after about 100 km.
For a cruise missile, before being launched from the ground that must enter the target information. After that, it will work automatically. Only for some missiles, the target can be modified even after it is launched. One is that the target information may not be accurate. But in this case, the missile traveled towards the planned target and only then changed course. If the wrong target information was posted, it should have gone straight there in the first place.
Therefore, there is nothing wrong with the target information entry in this case. Another possibility is that when someone was flying a missile, it could have been jammed by some cyber technology and changed direction. In addition, when such missiles change course, they have the potential to self-destruct. But in this case, it is not clear why the missile trajectory was changed and the self-destruct facility could not be activated.
