Babur Missile

Babur (named after the first Mughal Emperor Zahir ud-Din Babur), also designated Hatf VII, is the first land attack cruise missile to be developed byPakistan. 

Launched from ground-based transporter erector launchers, warships and submarines, the Babur can be armed with a conventional or nuclear warhead and has a reported range of 700 km (430 mi). The missile is designed to avoid radar detection and penetrate enemy air defences. Serial production of the Babur started in October 2005. 

Babur is believed to have been developed in response to reports that India was planning to acquire Patriot missiles from the US, in order to set up a ballistic missile defense system to counter Pakistan's arsenal of ballistic missiles. 

Design

The Babur's airframe is made up of a tubular fuselage, with a pair of folded wings attached to the middle section and the empennage at the rear along with the propulsion system. Propelled by a jet engine (either turbofan orturbojet), the Babur has a maximum speed of approximately 550 mph. On launch, a booster rocket provides additional thrust to accelerate the missile away from the launch vehicle. After the launch the wings unfold, the booster rocket is jettisoned and the jet engine started.

Guidance

The Babur's guidance system uses a combination of inertial navigation systems, terrain contour matching (TERCOM) and GPS satellite guidance. The guidance system reportedly gives the missile pinpoint accuracy. GPS access is not guaranteed under hostile conditions so the latest production models have also reportedly incorporated the Russian GLONASS. Future software and hardware updates could include the European Union'sGALILEO and China's Beidou navigation system. 

Features

The missile is stated to have a high degree of maneuverability, allowing it to "hug" the terrain, and "near-stealth" capabilities. Terrain hugging ability helps the missile avoid enemy radar detection by utilizing "terrain masking", giving Babur the capability to penetrate enemy air defence systems undetected and survive until reaching the target. The missile's design features can be compared with the American BGM-109 Tomahawkcruise missile. 

More advanced versions of the Babur are under development. Later versions are planned to have a range of 1000 km and be capable of being launched from Pakistan Navy submarines such as the Agosta 90BKhalid class. 

Operational history

On August 12, 2005, Pakistan publicly announced that it had successfully test fired a nuclear-capable cruise missile with a range of 500 km. The missile was launched from a land based transporter erector launcher(TEL). The unannounced launch on 11 August 2005 caught much of the international community by surprise due to the technically advanced nature of the missile, as well as the fact that Pakistan did not notify India of its test-firing as the existing notification agreement is limited to ballistic missile testing only.

On March 22, 2007, Pakistan test-fired an upgraded version of the Babur with an extended range of 700 km. Pakistan carried out two more tests of Babur on July 26, 2007 and December 11, 2007. 

On May 6, 2009, Pakistan conducted another test-firing but did not announce the event until 9 May 2009, citing political reasons. 

On October 28, 2011. Pakistan successfully test fire its Babur Cruise missile and has a range of 700 kilometer. The ISPR said Babur was capable of carrying conventional and atomic warheads. A special feature of this launch was the validation of a new multi tube Missile Launch Vehicle (MLV) during the test. The three tube MLV enhances manifold the targeting and deployment options in the conventional and nuclear modes. With its shoot-and-scoot capability, the MLV provides a major force multiplier effect for target employment and survivability. 

On June 6, 2012 Pakistan conducted a successful test-fire of the multi-tube, indigenously developed Cruise Missile Hatf-VII (Babur), which can carry both nuclear and conventional warheads with stealth capabilities. It was the third test-fire conducted by Pakistan in the recent past, of different capacity and load. “It can carry both nuclear and conventional warheads and has stealth capabilities,” said an official announcement of the ISPR. “It also incorporates the most modern cruise missile technology of Terrain Contour Matching (Tercom) and Digital Scene Matching and Area Co-relation (DSMAC), which enhances its precision and effectiveness manifolds.”

FLIGHTLINE: 111 - AGM-28 HOUND DOG

The Hound Dog cruise missile was carried by B-52 bombers from 1960 to 1977, and (fortunately) was never fired in anger.

Developed in response to USAF General Operational Requirement 148, issued in 1956, the Hound Dog cruise missile (variously designated B-77, GAM-77 and finally AGM-28) was produced by North American Aviation (Later Rockwell International, now a part of Boeing) from 1959 to 1963 and was carried by B-52s from 1960 to 1977.

STAND-OFF WEAPONS, OR: HOW I LEARNED TO STOP WORRYING AND LOVE THE BOMB

During the 1950s, the US became aware of rapid developments by the Soviet Union in surface to air missile (SAM) technology. SAM sites soon began to proliferate around Moscow and other key sites, threatening SAC's B-36, B-47 and B-52 bombers. As the SAMs were located at fixed sites, easily discernable from aerial recon or satellite photos, the USAF determined that the best counter would be to develop "stand-off" weapon that could be fired from the approaching bombers and destroy the SAM site before they could threaten the attack force.

GOR-148 therefore called for a supersonic missile, to be carried in pairs by a B-52 Stratofortres, capable of flying to a predetermined target outside the SAM's range and to destroy the target with a nuclear bomb, allowing the bombers to then attack their main targets with impunity. In July of 1957, Chance Vought and North American submitted proposals, both based on existing weapons. Chance Vought's design was based on the SSM-N-9 Regulus II SLCM, while the NAA proposal was adapted from the SM-64 Navaho cruise missile. One month later, NAA received a contract to develop their design, which had been christened the GAM-77.

YOU AIN'T NOTHIN' BUT A HOUND DOG...

The GAM-77 was nicknamed the Hound Dog, a reference to a song made popular by Elvis at the time of development. The missile featured a canard and delta wing, with single vertical fin and rudder. It was powered by a version of the J52 turbojet, which also was used in the A-4 Skyhawk, A-6 Intruder and EA-6 Prowler, and, in its civilian form as the JT8D, propelled the Boeing 727 and 737-100/200, as well as the DC-9 and MD-80. Unlike with the other planes, the Hound Dog's engine was run at 100% output for its entire flight, resulting in an operational lifespan of only 6 hours (not an impediment to a missile expected to be destroyed by its own nuclear bomb well before reaching that run time, mind you). The Hound Dog’s fuel tank could be topped off from the B-52's own fuel supply, allowing the larger plane to use both missiles' engines to assist on take-off. Hound Dogs were guided by an inertial navigation system, which was updated by a star tracker mounted in the pylon. The B-52 would launch its missiles from an altitude of 5,000' or more, and from there the GAM-77 could fly at high (+5,000 feet) or low altitude (under 5,000 feet), though at the cost of decreased range; early models were not capable of terrain following/terrain avoidance, and thus no obstructions could be present along the flight path. A dogleg could also be added to flightpath to draw off interceptors. Later models of the GAM-77 added a radar altimeter, allowing flight down to 100 feet. This would allow the missile to hide in the radar clutter of low altitude. The Dog had a CEP of 2 miles, though with its W28 warhead, which had yields ranging from 70kt to 1.45mt, would effectively destroy its target even with a near-miss.

TESTING, TESTING...

The first drop test of a dummy GAM-77 occurred in November 1958, and between April 1959 and August 1965 fifty-two missile tests were conducted at Cape Canaveral AFS, Eglin AFB and the White Sands Missile Range. Even before the drop test, the USAF had awarded NAA a production contract, with deliveries beginning on 21 December 1959. Late in 1961, production switched to the upgraded GAM-77A model, which included a upgraded INS with integrated star tracker and radar altimeter. The A model also had increased fuel capacity, and incorporated radar-absorbing materials into the nose cone, engine inlet spike and the intake duct to further reduce its already low radar cross-section.

A SHORT BUT UNEVENTFUL SERVICE...

Under the 1962 Tri-Service system, the GAM-77 was redesignated the AGM-28A, while the GAM-77A became the AGM-28B. In 1971, one Hound Dog was fitted with a prototype terrain contour matching (TERCOM) system. Had the USAF chosen to proceed with development of this version, it would have been designated the AGM-28C, but instead the technology continued in development until the AGM-86 ALCM was accepted for service in 1982. In 1972 Bendix was awarded a contract to develop a passive radar-seeker for the Hound Dog, which would have turned it into a long-range anti-radiation missile. At least one test flight occurred in 1973, but the type was not approved for conversion/production, and the last AGM-28B was retired from alert status on 30 July 1975.

SENT OFF TO A FARM...

Even after retirement, approximately 300 Hound Dogs were retained in storage between 1975 and 1977, but by 1978 they had mostly been scrapped. A large number of missiles, stripped and demilled, have been preserved in museums and air parks across the country.
