Actually it seems that Pakistan is doing the rattling this time.
"Pakistan says it has fired its first cruise missile capable of carrying nuclear and conventional warheads.
The Babur missile has a range of 500km (310miles), a military spokesman said.
The launch comes days after Pakistan and neighbouring rival India agreed to give each other advance notice of future nuclear missile tests.
India had not been informed about Thursday's test because the agreement did not cover the type of missile fired on Thursday, the spokesman said.
The agreement "does not cover pre-notification of cruise missile tests," Pakistani Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammed Naeem Khan told Associated Press.
