Have some respect for your in service commissioned Naval officer.
Media reports saying all IAF pilots accounted for.

Now how much they want to escalate is up to the opposing side.

Even i am surprised why a jag, a mig 21 will try something like this .
I don't know what is real and perhaps nobody does.
The helicopter does seem to have been shot down.

Pakistan shoots down two Indian aircraft
The Sydney Morning Herald Reports.

Islamabad: Pakistan has shot down two Indian jets, a spokesman for the Pakistan armed forces said, a day after Indian warplanes struck inside Pakistan for the first time since 1971, prompting leading powers to urge the nuclear armed rivals to show restraint.
Tensions have been elevated since a suicide car bombing by Pakistan-based militants in Indian-controlled Kashmir killed at least 40 Indian paramilitary police on February 14, but the risk of conflict rose dramatically on Tuesday after India launched an air strike claiming it hit a militant training base.
The attack targeted the Jaish-e-Mohammed militant, the group that claimed credit for the suicide attack. But while India said a large number of JeM fighters had been killed, Pakistani officials said the Indian air strike was a failure and inflicted no casualties. Pakistan then vowed to carry out a "befitting" response.
Then on Wednesday afternoon, Indian air force planes strayed into Pakistani airspace after Pakistan had carried out air strikes in Indian-occupied Kashmir, said Major General Asif Ghafoor, a spokesman for the Pakistan armed forces.
"PAF shot down two Indian aircrafts inside Pakistani airspace," he said in a tweet.
One of the aircraft fell on India-held Kashmir, while the second came down in Pakistani-held territory, and its pilot was captured, he added.

A spokesman for India's Defence Ministry was not immediately available for comment.
Police officials in Indian-occupied Kashmir said that two Indian pilots and a civilian had died after an Indian air force plane crashed in Kashmir, but did not confirm if the plane had been shot down by Pakistani forces.
Indian officials said three Pakistani jets had also entered Indian airspace, before being intercepted and forced turned back.
The Indian air force has ordered Kashmir's main airport in Srinagar along with at least three others in neighbouring states to be closed, an official said.
On Tuesday evening, Pakistan began shelling using heavy calibre weapons in 12 to 15 places along the de facto border in Kashmir, known as the Line of Control (LoC), a spokesman for the Indian defence forces said.
"The Indian Army retaliated for effect and our focused fire resulted in severe destruction to five posts and number of casualties," the spokesman said.

In response to PAF strikes this morning as released by MoFA, IAF crossed LOC. PAF shot down two Indian aircrafts inside Pakistani airspace. One of the aircraft fell inside AJ&K while other fell inside IOK. One Indian pilot arrested by troops on ground while two in the area.

Five Indian soldiers suffered minor wounds in the shelling that ended on Wednesday morning, he added.
"So far there are no [civilian] casualties but there is panic among people," said Rahul Yadav, the deputy commissioner of the Poonch district where some of the shelling took place.
"We have an evacuation plan in place and if need arises we will evacuate people to safer areas,” he said.
Local officials on the Pakistani side said at least four people had been killed and seven wounded, though it was unclear if the casualties were civilian or military.
India has also continued its crackdown on suspected militants operating in Kashmir, a mountainous region that both countries claim in full but rule in part.
On Wednesday, security forces killed two JoM militants in a gun battle, Indian police said.
Heightened security
Pakistan had promised to retaliate Tuesday's air strikes, and security across India has been tightened. The two countries have fought three wars since independence from British colonial rule in 1947 and went to the brink a fourth in 2002 after a Pakistani militant attack on the Indian Parliament.
In Mumbai, India's financial capital, there was a visible increase in security levels for a city that has suffered numerous militant attacks in the past.
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who is in Vietnam, spoke separately with the foreign ministers of India and Pakistan and urged them to avoid "further military activity".
"I expressed to both ministers that we encourage India and Pakistan to exercise restraint, and avoid escalation at any cost," Pompeo said in a statement.
"I also encouraged both ministers to prioritise direct communication and avoid further military activity," he said.

Both China and the European Union have also called for restraint. On Wednesday New Zealand's Deputing Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Winston Peters also voiced concern over the escalation in tensions.
