Did costs stop Pak from getting into arms race with India?
Akhand Bharat is your dream, not ours, and the way the British Army designed your Army left a flaw in your IA design that you always depend on the western weapon system and pile up more arms. This approach to using offensive force centers on large army formations because of your large population, operating relatively from a political direction, seeking to impose a punitive cost on the enemy. The punitive cost often takes the form of capturing enemy territory as a bargaining chip; India usually pursues offensive war to maintain the territorial status quo in neighboring countries. Your defence policy made you isolated in the region.
I think The Indian Army’s prevailing doctrine leaves the military with two main choices: do nothing or risk wars it cannot win.
The Indian Army needs to rethink its use of force to meet today’s new challenges.The PLA’s non-kinetic capabilities ensconced in its unique Strategic Support Force (PLASSF) comprising cyber, space, electronic and electromagnetic spectrum management could dominate the electromagnetic spectrum. This would disallow and disrupt Indian Army and Indian Air Force’s communications; command and control; Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR), satellites, and Position, Navigation and Timing essential for the firing of cruise missiles. A potent capability, the SSF has been exercising extensively under the Western Theatre Command since 2018. It has done a series of force-on-force exercises and has vastly improved PLA Army and PAF joint operations in advanced electromagnetic environments.
But we see something different Indian narrative, which reflects your thinking in such panic mode. With few available options – political, diplomatic, and military – and unmindful of the PLA's sizeable land grab and the growing threat to Siachen and SSN, the Modi government decided to do: Adopt a tough posture and build an alternate narrative of victory for domestic consumption. Do you think this will save your 100000 troops in -40 degrees?
