Tidied the article up a bit and removed some stuff that didn't sound great - don't know enough to add anything though. --Si42 21:11, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

I have removed the line saying that Shaheen-I is the M-11 missile and Shaheen-II is the M-18 missile. Shaheen-I is not the M-11 missile. M-11 has a max range of 300 Km while the range of Shaheen missile is 750 Km. Similarly, Shaheen-II is not the M-18 missile. M-18 is a 2-stage missile with max range of 1000 Km and payload of only around 500 Kg. Shaheen-II has a max range of 3500 Km and payload of 1000 Kg. Information on Wikipedia has to be based on hard facts nothing else. Raza0007 09:53, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

I think the numbers of missiles are a bit too high can someone please link some hard facts.I mean 1000 baburs? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.8.198.65 (talk) 09:49, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Fixed. The numbers were made up by someone. {Raza0007 | Talk} 19:11, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Shaheen-I pic

I have replaced the image of Shaheen-II (one on the right) with the image of Shaheen-I (one on the left) as this particular page is for Shaheen-I missile.

Shaheen-II TEL vehicle

Shaheen-I TEL vehicle

Shaheen-I is 12 m long and its TEL is 8 wheeler. Shaheen-II is 17.5 m long and its TEL is 12 wheeler. You can see it clearly in the images which one is Shaheen-I and which one is Shaheen-II.

I had replaced the image on the right earlier, with the image of Shaheen-I present at the bottom of the article for the same reason.

If someone does not like this image, feel free to add another good pic of Shaheen-I missile. Just make sure it is of Shaheen-I though.

You can move the image of Shaheen-II TEL on Shaheen-II page, but there is already a beautiful pic of Shaheen-II on that page. I would recomend keeping the original. Raza0007 18:37, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
