When & where has he said anything since we handed him over a month back?
All we saw were pics of him in a Military Hospital meeting that Nirmala Sitha-WhatsHerFace. I would love for WikiLeaks to get a hold of a copy of his DeBrief. Its just a guess, but I don't think we'll be hearing from him for another month or so - or atleast until the General Elections aren't over.
He's back in his squadron, and you are probably right, nothing from him until the Model Code of Conduct is over. They've already reprimanded the UP Chief Minister, and that third rate jobless hack who is Vice of the Niti Ayog, and the Governor of Rajasthan is in the queue.
Had the outcome of these skirmishes been in indians favor, then none of them would have spoken against what is running in Bollywoodish indian nation.
Jooth pe jooth bhol key ab indians are like headless chicken.
Had Pakistan won any of the wars it waged against its neighbour, then none of the fanbois would have been in such a poisonous mood.
We would not have had to face a monstrosity like a two-headed chicken.
Instead of finding solice in delusion. Do a fact check on what is verified and the outcome would be the victory for this particular engagement (however small or big) for Pakistan. both in terms of control of information and also the collateral damage. It only takes a big man to accept it so that path to repair and improvement can be identified and followed.
Done.
Only utter idiots would exult over a skirmish of planes where one is shot down.
Joe I disagree. Quite obviously F16s were acquired to be used and not to be displayed behind glass cases. When ISPR said they weren't used...it was in regards to the strike operation carried out...as in the jets used to perform strikes inside India werent F16s. PAF used H4 SOW, which I think can only be fired by PAF's Mirages and JF17s.
Of course PAF would've also taken into account other scenarios. There was a slim chance of not being detected and carrying out the strike mission. Given the advance notice that Pak will strike back, IAF would've been on high alert...meaning a high chance of IAF engaging PAF. For this possibilty there must've been PAF AWACS in the air with constant patrolling of other PAF assets(like F16s). Once IAF engaged...other assets like AWACS, F16s, and Dassault Falcons(according to PDF) were utilized.
So in conclusion PAF didnt use F16s in that mission(the strike mission). They were only used in the aftermath of the strikes.
I am not sure what you are disagreeing with.
My point is that the ISPR, in keeping with a long tradition with the Pakistani military, has been revealing facts in a graduated fashion, and unpleasant facts only under pressure.
Is your excellent analysis above in any way contradictory of this finding?
