South Asia’s space race heats up | Get This

Описание: India has just launched its heaviest-ever communications satellite — CMS-03 (GSAT-7R) — a mission born out of lessons from the 2025 Indo-Pak conflict. After losing the information war to Pakistan’s Link-17 network, India is striking back in space with a satellite designed to unify its Army, Navy, and Air Force through encrypted, real-time connectivity.

Meanwhile, Pakistan’s own space program is quietly evolving with Chinese support — from EO satellites to Tiangong astronaut training.
In today’s Get This, find out how South Asia’s rivalry has moved beyond borders… and into orbit.

Correction: The budget for Pakistan's space program is PKR 36 billion.
