Pakistan’s latest SMASH missile test is presented as “historic,” yet the warship that fired it remains hidden from view. This deliberate concealment raises deeper questions about capability, credibility, and narrative control, revealing how the “invisible frigate” shapes both deterrence and perception.

Pakistan is building a parallel naval reality through AI-generated videos, deepfakes, and synthetic maritime narratives. While its real fleet faces constraints, its digital navy amplifies deterrence, distorts regional perceptions, and risks crisis escalation—raising concerns for India, Europe, and Indo-Pacific stability.

The 2016 Nagrota attack exposed how Pakistan continues to use groups like Jaish-e-Mohammed as strategic proxies. Far from a routine fidayeen strike, it revealed a sophisticated infiltration network, protected leadership, and state-backed intent—highlighting Pakistan’s long-term strategy of calibrated cross-border terrorism.

Pakistan’s terror infrastructure has remained intact from 26/11 to today, operating across India, Afghanistan, and beyond. Despite shifting tactics and leadership changes, groups like Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammed continue to receive protection within Pakistan, posing a structural threat with global security and economic implications.to
