The press conference on May 12 states that most of these locations have been targeted in the Indian attacks. India targeted Rafiki Airbase in Shorkot, Pakistan, Noor Khan Airbase in Rawalpindi, Murid in Chakwal, Rahayayar Khan, Sukkur and Chunian as well as radar sites in Pasroor and Sialkot. Apart from this, satellite photographs have revealed that India was also attacked by India. This means that the Indian Air Force bombed the bases in every major city of Pakistan including Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Lahore, Sialkot, Sargodha and Karachi.
Did India bomb nuclear bases?
Even after rejecting such claims in India, many experts are claiming on social media that the Indian Air Force attacks in Pakistan targeted nuclear storage facility in the grocery hills. These claims were reportedly made when the satellite imagery showed damage to the Mushaf Airbase in Sargodha, which is believed to have been a storage site of underground nuclear weapons under the grocery hills. Flight tracking data from Flightradar24 claimed that the US Energy Department-Emergency Assistance Aircraft (B350 AMS) has landed in Pakistan. The report of the aircraft flying over Pakistan, further airing the speculation that there could be radioactive leakage after India’s alleged attack. Apart from this, some reports in the foreign media say that Pakistan was worried about the attacks on its nuclear command.
A former US military officer, who has been aware of Pakistan’s nuclear program, told the New York Times that, “Pakistan’s biggest fear is to be beheaded by its nuclear command authority. The missile attack on Noor Khan can be seen in the same way that India can do so.” India’s Air Marshal AK Bharti has rejected the claim, yet the alleged flight of the US nuclear security aircraft remains a mystery. Some major Open Source Intelligence (Osint) Bloggers said the aircraft was handed over to the Pakistan Army Aviation in 2010. Let us tell you that Pakistan operates a variant of the B-350 aircraft, but currently there is no information about whether the Pakistani aircraft has not been understood by the American B-350 AMS?
B-350 AMS aircraft in Pakistan
According to the Eurasian Times, the US National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) and the Department of Energy Super King Air 350 or B350. It is mainly used to monitor nuclear radiation and during emergency response during emergency reaction to aerial majoring system (AMS). The aircraft provides real -time data during atomic or radiological phenomena, which consists of sensors that detect and measure radioactive contamination on air and ground. In addition, it can check nuclear features to ensure safety and integrity of nuclear materials.
In December 2019, the National Atomic Safety Administration (DOE/NNSA) of the US Energy Department unveiled three new King Air 350er aircraft to measure air and radioactive pollution spread over the ground after a nuclear or radiological accident. King Air B350er is used in special operations. According to the Eurasian Times, this variant is used by countries like America, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Canada. The aircraft can travel 1,878 knots in total distance and operate with two Prat and Whitney PT6A-60A engine. So the question is whether the flight that has been tracked is American or Pakistan’s nuclear emergency aircraft, suspense remains on it.
