I am hoping somethings will be shared with PAF in our next joint exercise regarding these systems :cheers:
Let's not derail further lest we face the wrath of Eagle.
This post is delight to read. Why haven't we seen you around more?
The main issue is not showing cowardice. I do not think that anyone accuses PAF of cowardice. It is simply pressing your advantage home and ensuring that the other side does not resort to such attacks in the future. In all...
They did not intend to bomb trees, they intended to bomb buildings full of people. But granted your point is valid, since they hadn't caused any loss of life on the ground PAF took steps to ensure no one was harmed in their facilities. I am sure that had they managed to cause loss of life, those...
Killing military personal was not the aim and hence PAF was right in veering off the bombs into the green area. However, India had crossed international border and bombed KPK. The IAF aircrafts that were locked should have been downed. That was fair game.
Think dispassionately. Pakistan is not China or US but neither is India those tow things. Even after shooting down of their Mig, India, reported on this forum, was going for a missile strike against us. We thwarted it by threatening three times more destruction. So our shooting down of Mig...
These countries had a vision of what they wanted to do and had a plan on how to achieve it. we have never implemented this line of thinking in the majority of our institutions and political thinkers. I remember Musharraf had made a vision 2025. It was touted very much during his reign but after...
With due respect, just sending students abroad without the necessary groundwork in Pakistan will not give the required benefits. The students will inevitably be disheartened and leave the country regardless of how much we harp on about patriotism.
I am often reminded of this quote that talk lightly but keep a big stick. It was always expected that they will attack again. They would have done so now if the technological gap between the two airforces was vastly in their favour. They are still suffering from the hangover of Kargil. However...
My dear bro, there is an entire treasure trove worth of information on the targeted facilities in the relevant thread. better minds than mine have explained what went on during those two fateful days in detail. It would be discourteous to present their information as my own here. Go check out...
Not necessarily. Escalation is required as per the situation. We bombed their bases, shot down one of their aircraft and possibly another one as well. We kept their first line fighters at bay and had total command of the battle field.
Many posters, including me, thought that we would do nothing after the IAF failed strike. oh how wrong were we. The lack of use of air power in the past was as much a strategic decision as much as technological hindrances. I believe 27th feb episode showed that we can seriously harm the Indians.
But that causes another problem. You're actually telling the enemy of their weak spots and how we plan to exploit them. If yiu can't intercept them then hit them so hard that they won't think of any future "hanooman air-strike" or down a couple of planes from their strike package and then decide...
The point in the end is a pretty big cause for concern. They have gotten it into their heads that they can somehow bring about "behavioral change" in our policies. Such statements point that they will try again for another attack in the future once their induction of Rafale and S-400 is...
Got your point. Though I think it will create one hell of a nightmare for logistics. Not sure they would like it
So they need a Rommel to kick them around a bit before they learn something. As you mentioned, the recent WOT might actually be that kick. However, they were fighting a relatively...
Most of the business community are traders and have resisted many attempts to bring them into tax net. Thankfully this is being addressed. Further, excessive duty on imports may also lead to local substitution of various imported items which should ease the outflow of dollars. However, the...
