India and Pakistan began a new round of artillery battles
On March 11, 2019, a new round of fighting broke out on the Border between India and Pakistan, this time not on the Kashmir front, where India and Pakistan are currently facing each other, but in the Indian state of Rajasthan.
Villagers in the Ganga Anaghar district of Rajasthan reported that India fired several rounds of ammunition against Pakistan, while Pakistan sent drones to return fire, dropping bombs on border villages after 2 Pakistani drones crossed the border with India. Indian and Pakistani armies exchanged fire several times at the Ganga-Anaghar border in the Rajasthan region, and India used artillery to counter Pakistan's cross-border strikes. Some Indian people filmed the counterattack at that time, and in the night counterattack, there were multiple traces of tracer bullets breaking through the night sky. After 2 hours of exchange of fire, Indian artillery continued to fire in at least 3 places, and on the night of the 11th, it was obviously near the border between India and Pakistan, and neither side stopped.
Rare nighttime counterattack footage
It is allegedly a video of the Pakistani artillery position being covered
This time, unlike the previous Indian drones that could not take out the wreckage and the video, the Indian artillery also recorded a video of the front-line combat, in which the Pakistani artillery positions were beaten into the smoke, and all the mountain fire was basically covered by the Indian artillery, obviously the Indian artillery was prepared for a long time. From the picture point of view, it is very likely that India has used weapons such as rockets on a large scale.
India test-fired the "Pieka" long-range rocket launcher
Indian artillery later said that India today successfully tested the "Piaka"-guided long-range rocket launcher in actual combat, with a total of two salvos. Both salvos of "Pieca" rockets hit the target at a range of 90 kilometers. However, the experimental site is not introduced, but it is clear that the two salvos of precision-guided long-range fires were aimed at Pakistani targets. Some Indian netizens said that "this long-range rocket artillery can hit the Pakistani artillery into the soil"! And also played a video, vowing that this is the latest achievement of Indian artillery equipment, but this video is really not India's latest "Pieka" long-range rocket, but Pakistan's "Anza-122" rocket, obviously Indian netizens themselves put up a oolong.
Scenes of Pakistani rocket launches misreported by Indian netizens
Pakistan's "Anza-122" rockets mainly use lethal explosive rockets, with a caliber of 122 mm, a bullet length of 2.87 meters, a weight of 66 kg, a flight time of about 78 seconds, a maximum range of 20.5 kilometers, and a reload time of about 8 minutes. The Anza-122 rocket launchers are composed of 40 rocket launch tubes, 10 in each row, and four rows of top and bottom are combined. After Pakistan copied the "Anza-122" rocket, it immediately developed a variety of munitions, including 3500 steel ball prefabricated fragmentation rockets, Busa mine-laying rockets, and even extended-range rockets with a range of 30 kilometers, and the entire system was changed to electric drive-based, supplemented by human-driven.
Indian long-range rocket launchers
It is no wonder that the Pakistani artillery has suppressed the Indian side for almost 2 weeks, how can the night of the 11th be surprising, and can cover the Pakistani artillery in one breath? Apparently, the Indian artillery had brought in their strongest and most powerful weapon: long-range rocket launchers. And with the technical support of Russia and Israel, Russia provides long-range artillery shells, Israel provides precision guidance parts, and the powerful combination has made the Indian long-range fire into a counterattack weapon. The 30-kilometer rocket range pakistan now in service is clearly not enough to counter India's 90-kilometer long-range fire.
The range of the 122 was too close to withstand The Indian long-range fire
Pakistan's latest NASR long-range rocket launcher
In the face of the escalation of the situation, the top brass of the Pakistani army said that Pakistan has full self-defense in response to India's unconfirmed allegations of border firing! It is clear that Pakistan is about to move its latest long-range rocket launcher, the NASR, to the front line, and the world's first long-range fire battle is about to begin.
