Actually, my intention is not to troll (if my previous post made you think I am trolling)....even if (*assume*) SU-30 is shot down, part of me is still ok (nothing changed strategically), as that would put Indian "ministry of defence" in urgency mode [as they are peacefully sleeping from...

@dbc - If you have time, please clear this for me. A point in post # 333 is bothering me [I am an Indian American]. If someone fires a AIM120-C5, and the missile misses the target and ran out of fuel, will it fall down intact without exploding? The missile must self destruct by exploding...

Frankly, this point applies to almost all folks in this forum. This is the summary that I could gather: Indian point of view: a) At a minimum, it does not matter if the bombs hit the buildings or not, the mere fact that IAF jets crossed the border and landed munitions in Pak land (not Pak part...

You have any example of any of the Indian service chief's lying to Indian public (with an intention to deceit / intentionally propagating wrong info to cover their inefficiency), and later retracting? I believe it is impossible, as *most* of our media (which is anti-national & ultra liberal)...

@anathema - You have great knowledge. Thanks for taking time to respond. It really helps nooobies like me. Now, I understand possible reasons for high crash rate of IAF. @dbc - Thanks for your inputs too. PS: I know this post does not add any value, but could not resist.

I do not know answers to any of your questions.....I do not have the kind of knowledge you possess....there are few knowledgeable Indians here, who may be able to answer.......but I kind of got an idea why you think IAF are not better trained (you are entitled to your opinion)........thanks for...

Madam - Would you give any examples (or) similar to substantiate this statement? Actually, I see that @Oscar's [I think he has some background in PAF] posts has more respect for IAF than your posts [I am referring to @Oscar's old posts]. I think you must be knowing something more than @Oscar...

I spoke with one person in HAL (very disinterested person)....he says that IAF is not interested in MK2 (MWF), but very interested in AMCA.....hence, ADA is shifting resources to AMCA.....Can it be true?

@dbc - thanks for your inputs. Request you to put a blog (or) post on your analysis of Feb-26 & Feb-27. What went well for IAF? What went well for PAF? What did not go well for IAF? What did not go well for PAF? What do think furture skirmishes will be like? I do believe that american weapons...

I agree that I do not have lot of knowledge on air-warfare.......I posted my questions to get them clarified......I am eagerly waiting for someone to answer from neutral (not biased) perspective......Actually, if knowledgeable members write their non-biased analysis in a blog or something, it...

DBC - Please respond with your personal opinion on Feb-27 skirmish. I am really interested in the following: a) Did PAF really do something very unusually skillful on that day? Or is it more a case of first come and ready with great numerical advantage? Remember IAF is in reactive mode not...

DBC - a) In this video (post#341), PAF officer claims that they locked 9 Indian aircraft, but received clearance to fire at only 2 aircraft, which they did successfully shot down. Please tell me - Is it possible to get a lock on 9 aircraft? If yes, and they did lock 9 aircraft, they had a 100%...

Trailer23 - I am not being dis-respectful to you. But you got a chance to read *all* threads / posts after Feb-27. In one of those threads, one indian guy (don't remember the name, but it was very clear he was very knowledgeable and seem to be "near" to IAF thinking) said that IAF believes that...

Ok, maybe, you have a point here. I want an Indian guy (who is knowledgeable) to explain this. I am not that knowledgeable If this is true, then I would worry a lot.....because Abhinandan is given an award. Giving an award for a non-existent kill is much much much worse. It shows / starts the...

Assume (just assume) that the entire Indian narrative for Feb-26 & Feb-27 is wrong, and that the entire Pak narrative is 100% correct......(As an Indian) I am still happy - as (a) the inefficiency of IAF is advertised for the current leadership to see. The current Indian leadership will not sit...

dbc - I have been reading this forum for very long, and read your posts for a long time.....I believe you are a knowledgeable member..... a) lately, I observed that your posts are more inclining towards anti-India....for ex: long back, you said that the crash of c-130 (as well as high crash rate...

*Thanks for your response. You are entitled to your opinions. *No Indian feel ashamed or anything similar for Feb-27. On the contrary, Indians feel ashamed for not retaliating after mumbai attacks and parliament attacks (Mumbai attacks are much greater provocation). *Assuming SU-30 is also shot...

Socra or any other experts: Please help me understand. On Feb-27, (a) IAF is out-numbered by PAF 6:1 or something similar, and IAF could not do much against superior missiles other than dodging them (dodged successfully). What is so great the PAF has done when they had numerical advantage? PAF...

(a) I have been reading this forum for very long....After feb-27, I read many threads.....in one of the threads, immediately after feb-27, one much more knowledgeable member (don't remember his name), said that IAF believes that there is a good chance that F-16 could be bought down by SAMs of...

Indians are happy for the following reasons: a) Indians are very happy that we finally have a leader who has the guts to send combat aircraft across the border. Remember, even after grave provocations like Kargil war, parliament attack & mumbai attacks, the then Indian PMs could not take the...
