It has been powered by cruise turbo-fan engine which enables the missile to reach approximate speed of 880 km/h (550 miles/h). Babur design features can be compared with American BGM-109 Tomahawk cruise missile. Tags: Army, Babur, Cruise, Defense, Missile, Paksitan
	Pakistan tests nuclear-capable cruise missile Barbur missile's range extended to 700 kilometres Thursday July 26th, 2007 Pakistan test fired its weapon in an undisclosed location.

	What about the nukes in Pakistan? Our worst nightmare. This clip on the news this morning made me think about the fact that Pakistan has nukes. What is the problem with that?
