Burraq UCAV & Shahpar UAV Join Pakistan Air Force
Pakistan inducted the 1st fleet of indigenously developed Strategic (UAVs)/Burraq and Shahpar
Pakistan today inducted the 1st fleet of indigenously developed Strategic Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), namely Burraq and Shahpar UAV Systems in Pakistan Army and Pakistan Air Force. It is a landmark and historic event, wherein a very effective force multiplier has been added to the inventory of the Armed Forces.
In the future these UAVs could also be gainfully employed in various socio-economic development projects, as well.
The ceremony was attended by General Ashfaq Parvez Kayani, Chief of Army Staff, Air Chief Marshal Tahir Rafique Butt, Chief of the Air Staff, Lieutenant General (Retd) Khalid Ahmed Kidwai, Director General Strategic Plans Division and senior officers from Armed Forces, scientists and engineers.
General Ashfaq Parvez Kayani, Chief of Army Staff, while appreciating the work of NESCOM scientists and engineers, highlighted that induction of indigenously developed surveillance capable UAVs in Pakistan Armed Forces is a force multiplier, and will substantially enhance their target acquisition capabilities in real time.

Burraq UCAV Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle enters in service with the Pakistani Army and Air Force.
The new home-made Burraq UCAV (Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle) officially enters in service with the Pakistani Army and Air Force during an official ceremony. Army Chief, General Ashfaq Parvez Kayani, Chief of Air Staff, Air Chief Marshal Tahir Rafique Butt, Lieutenant General (Retd) Khalid Ahmed Kidwai, Director General Strategic Plans Division and senior officials of Pakistan Army, Air Force and Navy were also present during the ceremony.
The Burraq is an advanced unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV) developed by a venture of PAF (Pakistani Air Force) and the NESCOM, a civilian defence research and development organisation.
Burraq UCAV can carry up to two laser-guided anti-tank guided missile (ATGM) serving a role much like American MQ-1 Predator UAV and AGM-114 Hellfire.
Marshal Farhat Hussain ( Aeronautical Complex Chief Air ) said that the production of drones was very important for country defense, and this shows the professional capabilities of Pakistan Army.
The Pakistan Navy also acquired rotorcraft drones from foreign sources while the Pakistan Army has been working to develop partnerships with China and has provided incentives to local manufacturers to continue developing advanced platforms within the country.
The Pakistani UAV program is one indicator of the potential of this country in the defense areas. The Burraq UCAV is an example of new military technology that Pakistan can provide for national and international defense and security markets.
