'No other country with ICBMs that can target the United States is considered a friend.'While Pakistan continues to insist that its nuclear program is designed solely to deter India, US agencies are not buying that narrative anymore. Instead, they believe Pakistan's missile development may be aimed at deterring US involvement in any future India-Pakistan conflict or a preemptive strike against its exact status of Pakistan's ICBM development is classified, but intelligence officials say the program is gaining momentum, with signs that Islamabad is sourcing critical technology and materials from China—a long-time push for a long-range missile capability reportedly intensified after Operation Sindoor, a covert operation that rattled Pakistan's military establishment, though the report didn't disclose specific details about that present, Pakistan is estimated to possess about 165 nuclear warheads, according to global defense analysts.

Intelligence sources point to covert transfers of missile materials, nuclear assistance, and joint development and Pakistan have long maintained close military ties, often described as 'higher than the Himalayas' by both governments. But this new cooperation—if tied to ICBM development—may signal a strategic shift by China to position Pakistan as a nuclear-armed proxy capable of putting pressure on the US from the West, while China and Russia ramp up pressure from the East and China expanding its own nuclear arsenal and Russia pulling out of arms control treaties, Pakistan's ICBM program could be part of a wider global strategy—one where the US faces nuclear threats on multiple fronts.'If Pakistan joins the club of countries that can strike the US homeland, the strategic landscape will shift significantly—and not in Washington's favor,' one senior US defense official was quoted as saying in the this rising tension follows a private lunch between Donald Trump and Pakistan's Army Chief, General Asim Munir, according to sources familiar with recent events.

Built for the USSR, invisible today: B-2 bomber's stealth so sharp that Iranian radars mistook it for a bird

How the B-2 stayed hidden Live Events Iran's weak defenses What happens now? FAQs (You can now subscribe to our (You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channel The U.S. used B-2 stealth bombers to attack Iran's nuclear sites, and Iran's radars didn't even see them. That's how stealthy the B-2 is — its radar signal is so small that Iranian systems thought it was a bird. The mission kept the element of surprise the entire time, as per the report by Business B-2 bombers flew into Iran for 18 hours and dropped 14 bunker-buster bombs. Each bomb was 30,000 pounds. This was the largest B-2 strike in U.S. history and the second-longest B-2 flight ever, as stated by bombers were supported by F-22 Raptors, F-35 Lightning II jets, and surveillance aircraft. These support jets helped clear the skies of any Iranian fighter jets or missile threats. Iran didn't fire any missiles at the American B-2 is designed to be invisible to radar using a special flying wing uses radar-absorbing materials and edge design to reduce radar signals. It gives off such a small radar signature that it can look like a bird instead of a huge bomber. The B-2 also flies silently and very low, making it even harder to spot, according to the Business Insider air defense systems are old and not well-connected with each other. Israel attacked and weakened Iran's air defenses earlier this month. Because of those earlier strikes, the U.S. had an easier time getting radar sites and missiles had already been destroyed before the B-2s even arrived. Iran's mountain areas, like near Fordow and Natanz, made radar coverage worse and easier to avoid. The strike happened at night, making it harder for Iran's human radar operators to respond, as stated by Business U.S. used total radio silence and misled the world about the timing. Trump said he'd take two weeks to decide — but the strike happened within days. Some U.S. jets flew the opposite way as decoys into the Pacific a few top planners knew about the real attack direction — it was a top-secret trick. More decoy aircraft flew with the bombers as they entered Iranian airspace to distract strike was called a major success by Trump. Still, it's not clear if Iran's nuclear program was actually stopped. Iran's scientists were likely evacuated before the strikes, and it's unknown where their nuclear material is, as per Business started this with earlier attacks on Iran's nuclear program, and the U.S. joined in later. Israel targeted Iran's top scientists, commanders, and defenses. The Trump administration had preferred diplomacy before joining the military action, as per the B-2's design makes its radar signal very small—like a bombers flew in for the mission.

After Trump obliterated Iran's nuclear sites, is North Korea next? Kim Jong Un worried

How will Trump's Iran strike affect North Korea's nuclear ambitions? Could this trigger closer military ties between North Korea and Russia? Live Events Why does Kim Jong Un see nuclear weapons as a survival tool? Is a US military strike on North Korea even possible? Will the Iran strike accelerate nuclear proliferation? North Korea sees Trump's strike on Iran as justification for keeping nukes. Pyongyang may now deepen military ties with Russia in response. Experts warn of accelerated nuclear development and heightened risk of regional instability. A US attack on North Korea is highly unlikely due to massive risks and international complications. The Iran strike may unintentionally encourage other nations to pursue nuclear arms. FAQs: (You can now subscribe to our (You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channel North Korea's nuclear weapons program is now front and center once again after President Trump's recent airstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities. While B-2 stealth bombers hit sites linked to Tehran's atomic ambitions, leaders in East Asia are now trying to read between the lines. For Pyongyang, this show of military force is no warning—it's a reason to double say these US-led strikes will likely harden Kim Jong Un's belief that nuclear weapons are the only reliable shield against foreign intervention. And with North Korea already possessing an advanced arsenal of nuclear weapons and intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), the risks tied to any similar action on the Korean Peninsula are far Trump's decision to hit Iran's nuclear facilities is sending a dangerous signal to North Korea. According to Lim Eul-chul, professor at South Korea's Kyungnam University, 'President Trump's strike on Iran will only reinforce the legitimacy of North Korea's nuclear weapons program.' Lim warned that Pyongyang may now feel even more pressure to enhance its preemptive nuclear missile logic is chillingly clear for North Korea's leadership: Iran, Iraq, and Libya didn't have nuclear weapons—and look what happened to them. North Korea, however, already has the bomb. And based on US actions, Kim Jong Un may believe that keeping it is the only way to ensure his regime it already is. North Korea has found a strategic lifeline in its growing military partnership with Russia. Since forming a formal defense agreement in 2024, the two nations have ramped up cooperation in weapons development, joint exercises, and technology to the Multilateral Sanctions Monitoring Team (MSMT), North Korea has sent over 14,000 soldiers and millions of munitions—including missiles and artillery—to support Russia's war in Ukraine. In return, Russia has reportedly supplied Pyongyang with advanced military gear such as anti-aircraft missiles, electronic warfare systems, air defense units, and refined two-way military exchange not only supports North Korea's defense industry but also allows it to gain hands-on combat experience, which is extremely rare for a heavily sanctioned Cha, Korea Chair at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), explains that the Iran strike will likely reinforce two key beliefs for Kim Jong Un. First, that the US doesn't have a viable military option against North Korea—unlike with Iran. Second, that nuclear weapons are isn't just theory. North Korea has already conducted six nuclear tests and has developed long-range missiles that can potentially reach the US. Unlike Iran, which has never completed a deliverable nuclear weapon, North Korea has an operational nuclear Leif-Eric Easley of Ewha Womans University in Seoul highlights that Pyongyang's weapons are now capable of being launched via ICBMs, and South Korea remains well within striking range of a broad spectrum of North Korean realistically. Any attack on North Korea would come with devastating consequences. Lim warns that a strike on Pyongyang 'could provoke the risk of full-scale nuclear war.' And under the US-South Korea alliance treaty, military action would require Seoul's consent, adding legal and political unlike Iran, North Korea has a mutual defense pact with Russia, signed in 2024. That agreement allows Moscow to intervene automatically in the event of an external attack on Pyongyang, giving North Korea a powerful deterrent against unilateral US complex 'matrix of deterrents'—which includes a nuclear arsenal, regional alliances, and Russian backing—makes any direct military confrontation in East Asia vastly more dangerous than what just played out in the Middle the real risk. Instead of acting as a warning to nuclear-aspiring nations, the Iran strike might have the opposite effect—it could act as a blueprint for why nuclear weapons are essential.'This attack will deepen North Korea's distrust of the US,' said Lim. He believes it could serve as a catalyst for even closer military cooperation between North Korea and while Washington might hope this show of force will discourage nuclear development, in Pyongyang—and possibly other parts of the world—it may do just the Korea sees nukes as protection from regime change, especially after Iran was Korea is sharing weapons and troops with Russia and getting advanced arms in return.
