by then, babur cruise missile would have a range of about 1000-2000 km, allowing us to conduct blue-water operations and strike deep inland from far. this was something like the AFDP-2019 plan, judging by how the economy is doing.
this is totally contrary to the current naval doctrine of PN. can you please provide some "background" information supporting your claim!
