The Nasr (Military designation: Hatf-IX Nasr, Transl.: Target-9, Urdu: نصر), is a solid fueled short-ranged ballistic missile system derived from China's WS-2 tactical rocket, and further developed by the National Development Complex (NDC) of Pakistan, currently in service with the Pakistan Army.
The ISPR described the system as a "Multi-tube Ballistic Missile" because the launch vehicle carries multiple missiles. Its existence was revealed after a test in 2011 and it appears to have entered in military deployment after further testing in 2013.
