The Directorate General of Munitions Production (DGMP) is a department under the Ministry of Defense Production in Pakistan.[1] It plays an important role in the country's defense procurement and production.[2]
Indigenous development of anti-ship cruise missiles
Under the leadership of Major General (retd) Ubaid bin Zakaria, DGMP has made significant progress in defense technology. A notable achievement is the successful test launch of the indigenously developed anti-ship cruise missile Harba.[3][4] This missile has both anti-ship and land attack roles.[3]
Global arms market
Pakistan is making arrangements to target the global arms market through DGMP efforts. The country is focusing on reasserting its presence in the global arms and ammunition market. Global Industrial and Defence Solutions (GIDS) is one of the key players in the initiative.[5]
