🚨🇵🇰 Pakistan missile program: Separating fact from fiction When the US intelligence chief flags Pakistan's missiles as a threat to America, the claim warrants scrutiny. Do the facts support this concern? Consider geography: Pakistan lies over 11,000 km from the US East Coast—a distance far beyond the range of...

🚨🇷🇺 NATO IN PANIC: RUSSIA’S LONGER-RANGE ISKANDER-1000 BALLISTIC MISSILE MAKES COMBAT DEBUT Russia has reportedly used its upgraded 9M723-2 ballistic missile for the first time during a combined strike on Kiev this summer. Provisionally known as Iskander-1000, the new version allows Russian mobile launchers to hit the same targets from deeper behind the front, widening the area NATO-supported surveillance and strike assets must search. 🔸 Extended range: An enlarged solid-fuel motor increases the missile’s maximum range from 390 to 550 km, giving Russian crews an additional 160 km of operational depth. 🔸 More possible launch sites: Additional reach allows Iskander crews to disperse across a much larger area while keeping Kiev and other targets within range. Ukrainian forces must locate, identify and strike a mobile launcher before it fires and changes position again. 🔸 Mature design: Most of the 9M723-2 remains identical to the existing Iskander missile. The main changes are the enlarged motor and a modified launcher capable of accommodating it, allowing Russia to gain range without developing an entirely new missile architecture. 🔸 Difficult interception: The Iskander family combines high speed with a maneuvering quasi-ballistic trajectory that leaves Patriot crews only minutes to react. The upgraded missile retains this flight profile while adding greater reach. 🔸 Not yet 1,000 km: Despite its provisional Iskander-1000 name, the combat version has a stated range of 550 km. The 1,000-km figure is associated with a further extended-range version still under development. 🔸 New missile system: The 9M723-2 forms part of a system designated Bora-M, built around the enlarged missile and its modified mobile launcher. The longer range increases the survivability of Russia’s mobile launchers before firing and preserves the interception challenge after launch. NATO-backed intelligence assets must now monitor a larger region, distinguish real launchers from decoys and pass targeting data to Ukrainian weapons before the systems move again. Russia has expanded the Iskander’s reach while retaining most of a missile already manufactured and used at scale. Which matters more: the missile’s longer range or its maneuverability?
