He is credited among the persons who are called as "father of the Pakistan's atomic bomb project",〔 for their role in Pakistan's integrated atomic bomb project— the clandestine Cold war program. Khan was technical director of the programme to develop nuclear weapons, which lead to the Chagai-I nuclear testing in May 1998 in Balochistan.〔〔Babar, Farhatullah, "Munir Will Remain Immortal in country's nuclear history," The Nation (Islamabad) 2 June 1999.〕
A technical adviser to the newly created PAEC since 1958, Khan used that position in IAEA for lobbying for country's industrial nuclear power development. A proponent of an arm race with India, he remained associated with his country's various strategic science projects for more than four decades until his death in 1999. After securing the chairmanship of the Board of Governors of the IAEA from 1986–87, he made a strong case for Pakistan's peaceful development on nuclear energy. Serving till 1999 as visiting professor of physics at the Institute of Engineering and Applied Sciences in Islamabad,〔 he was instrumental in establishing the International Nathiagali Summer College on Physics and Contemporary Needs. He also made critical contributions on the development of the nuclear fuel cycle including setting up the plutonium program as well as the establishment of reprocessing plants.〔Haris N.
