What are ROEs on hitting Indian military formations through air strikes on neutral territory like Afghanistan.
Lets not say indian...lets call them hostile. Air strikes normally signify a major escalation....much more than small arms fire, artillery fire, sending own special operations troops inside etc. Such strikes normally are launched in retaliation to a major incident.

Aother point.
Possible use of IAF SAM deployed in Afghanistan in an event of war between India and Pakistan so that PAF is unable to fly it’s sorties with full freedom. An envelope of S-400 on Pakistan’s eastern and western borders can hinder PAF’s capabilities.

IT can of course. But then, they wont be deployed or pop up out of no where. They are full battalion sized deployments, not some MANPADs. Just their move and them nearing Afghanistan will signal another major spike, which will be countered by us at .....somwhere equally important and pinching.

To add on this, in the case of targeting a HVTs Air strikes have and can be used.

Let's not be that much strict. Those Russian systems faced the complete might of NATO EW systems coupled with C4ISTAR, and what not... The latest systems western world had to offer... Everything the NATO could throw at them.

western propaganda aside, Russian systems have faired badly. n its not just the AD systems russia has performed badly across the board. russia will eventually achieve all its objectives but at a prohibitive cost, had the price of oil not been where it is right now, russia would have packed up n gone home a long time ago.

I am not saying it is impossible, but I don't foresee this in near future.

well it was payback from western powers, after Russia thwarted their actions in Syria.
 
What happened to Air Marshal Aamir Masood? Did he leave the Air Force? The wikipedia page no longer mentions his name. He is also no longer part of Pakistan Squash Federation.
