Does Pakistan have 45 DAYS of war Reserves ????????
USA has estimated Pak war fighting potential to be 7-10 days max against india before they run short of fuel gas and ammo.
Beyond this Pakistan would start to lose ground/territory
AT WHICH POINT USA THINK TANKS believe a desperate Pakistan will resort to tactical nukes or suffer huge embaressment and lose territory.
The Pakistani high command and the leaders are aware of this and have feared a cold start type scenario turning into a nitemare scenario whereby Lahore or the LOC is seriously breached..
THIS IS WHY PAKISTAN HAS WARNED INDIA OVER NUCLEAR STRIKES
They know there conventional war fighting ability is very limited to 10 days.
USA knows this
India knows this
Pakistan knows this
Pakistan is currently threatening India with nuclear strikes because all of our efforts are being focused on eliminating terror and we are currently very vulnerable from an attack from India -
our reserves will easily be stabilized once the operation is complete, defence industries are setting up more and more factories to cope with a situation like this - unless those factories are bombed - Pakistan will be able to significantly increase ammunition production both during peace and war time .
Not to mention, Saudi Arabia will be providing us with free fuel like in the past wars; if our navy is capable of fending off any blockade on Gwadar ; our fuel problem will also be taken care of. Saudi Arabia also funds our nuclear programs.
All this in mind, Pakistan can go up to months in war; much more than India - if needed Pakistan can go up to a year but with significantly reduced fire power.
A war like this will end up like last major conventional warfare, 1965 War; in which no sides were able to secure victory. If a garrison fought back an entire Indian invasion on the Lahore front , then what makes you think Lahore will be breached? India will no doubt make small gains in Punjab but Pakistan will also gain territory in Rajasthan in order to negotiate territory back if needed.
India just needs to mobilize the troops on the border and put them on stand by. Pakistan will have to drop every thing on western front and run to the eastern one. If the stand off continues for one or two months , the strain on the economy will soon show up. India simply needs to keep firing artillery shells for a month to bankrupt pakistan.
Agreed.
Thing is, within a year; the operation in the West will be completed. A standoff cannot bankrupt Pakistan, it costs around 1 billion dollars to maintain a standoff for a couple months; our military funds will also be pitched in by allied countries. Also, India shelled Pakistan in 2002 standoff, but it was India who lost more casualties as Pakistan began responding. If India needs to succeed, it will have to invest in its navy much more; and move on to blockading Gwadar and Karachi - but it will need to destroy land defence systems before it ever gets close - which i doubt will happen. A war between Pakistan and India will not get anywhere.
Pakistan will send zahid Hamid on white horse with shining sword to counter CSD ,the blaze of the sword will blind Indian army ,an easy win for Pakistan
No No, Zaid Hamid stands no chance for your Vedic Star ships and aircraft carriers. Your Hanumon warriors will easily overwhelm us.
