On tactical simulators,pune is the centre base of maximum numbers of sukhoi simulators what i got -
''Regarding the deployment of Su-30MKI squadrons, the procvedure being followed by the IAF is to have the maximum concentration in Pune only as a temporary measure, simply due to the ready availability of Su-30MKI tactical simulators, cockpit procedures trainers and weapons employment part-task simulators there.''
All new sukhoi-30mki bases have at least one such simulator.

Here mig-29 simulators in indian service.Simulators aren't incredibly high fi technology.
IAF doesn't just use LGB,IAF was using LGB in 1990s.

Used by most nato,USAF,ISAF etc.
Plus this.The rafael israeli RECCELITE pod.
Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd.
Used again by many top airforces.
ELTA's Pod SAR - ELM-2060P - YouTube
And this.ELTA ELM-2060 SAR pod.
Since we are both learning about each other air forces let's do a quid pro quo.Whats china's comparable asset here?
As for the last line....
''Even PLAAF has a dedicated airborne unit of 15th corps full many self made and design airborne mechanized unit that can strike any place of India in short time once air superiority is achieved.''
ONCE air superiority is achieved.You can deploy a limited number of squadrons[16-21 max] in TAR,most can't fly at high altitude,u got no superior craft to the mki.Your aircraft will take off at 1/3 payloads mostly,visible on radar due to terrain,will have to first take on our air defence network,and ur UAVs are not suitable for high altitude ops,U will enter a networked ground and awacs environment with sams and aircraft at full payload.You are fighting on our turf,keep dreaming about air superiority.
And without that ur land advantage means little in modern warfare.
The same j-10 that was'CRUSHED' by j-11s in exercises.Now if j-11s did that even without BARS radar and thrust vector what will mki do to poor j-10.Ones that PAF won't even buy in place of f-16s.Ones that have reputation of maintainence nightamre.
And i gave my answer in the next post,u ranted even before reading my 2nd post on PGMs and Simulators.As usual.PLAAF power projection over whole india.HAHAHAHA.You can't even project power with those load restrictions in Tibet.U get anywhere deep those squadrons are gonna get surrounded and made mincemeat of by IAF squadrons from all over india.The fight is in our backyard not yours.And our rules,never forget that.
You are telling me its only MKI upgraded for better training? Where is the whole level you have mention? Indeed simulator arent really high tech. Training pod with network for monitoring whole exercise display by PLAAF is a real step ahead.
You keep mentioning IAF using LGB earlier than PLAAF but that does not mean PLAAF are falling behind. May I know what generation ahead of LGB has India made?
Targeting pod.. WMD-7
As for your ranting of TAR and high attitude. I don't know what's your ranting about? TAR monitoring is well cover by 2 radar regiment in Tibet monitoring Tibet right up to India airspace activities. XIanglong UAV will well supplement the high attitude monitoring.

If IAF thinking they can easily sneak right into TAR with coverage. I think its a big mistake. Plus Chengdu regiment will supplement with AWACS to prevent low terrain masking into China airspace..
