F-16 Justification---WHY?---ISPR

[MastanKhan]

Hi,

The ISPR is just getting embroiled in a useless justification of no F16's shot down or no F16's involved in the skirmish---.

It was not very intelligent of the ISPR to give details of what aircraft were used on Feb 27th and how they operated and what tactics were used---.

This information was related to operational intelligence---and there was no reason for it to be released to the public on a public forum and to the enemy---.

We have weapons system---we used our weapons systems---we destroyed enemy aircraft---and that was it---.

Nothing more should have been stated---no further information was needed.

The ISPR Gen Ghafoor---disclosed secret information on public forum---told the enemy publicly what we used---what our capabilities are---and how we used them---and the tactics involved---it seemed like if he was teaching a high school students class on how a game of cricket.

I am am literally astounded at the belligerent leak of highly secret tactical & operational information in such a callous manner---.

Secondly---the Sqdrn Leader leaks out the information of the aircraft that he shot down to his family and friends---.

It looks like Pakistan's national operational security means nothing---everyone who gets the opportunity is racing to be the first to release this information openly---without thinking of the consequences---.

Further---I do not see any reason at all---why the DG ISPR would take it upon himself to keep releasing the information on the no F16 usage or no F16's shot down---.

The enemy has moved forward to get better and potent weapons systems and our ISPR is entangled in justifying what we did or what we did not do---.

With you and the PAF, it’s a case of damned if you do and damned if you don’t. You will criticize them either way.

This shouldn't be done... rest DG is wise enough ... he also wants to embarrass Indians and keep moral of the nations.... so a little give and take in a sense.. rest he just released whta is in public domain... about the 2nd aircraft, he already said that on 27th.... and saying all our assets were airborne means nothing

I agree with it. There was no need to give any details. The could have answered the Yanks on official level on the use of F 16 once asked.

What ISPR should have done is to leak the video of the shooting down of the Su 30 without the voice recording, not to expose the pilot and any operational details in the voice recording.
F 16 is solved through independent means now. Please release the Su 30 kill by covert means, no need to get officially involved or give any news break or tweet. Unless ISPR needs to interact.

I think it is better if airchief made statements about airforce matters instead of dgispr as ispr not have indepth knowledge of airforce matter so he should only speak about land forces related matters

Ditto

Ispr bring back news when world start forgetting it

Any other would be quick to release HUD/Gun Camera Footage or other details but although all is with ISPR.DMA, yet they still held on to it as it contains much sensative readings and signatures....and authorities should be commended for that, since we are dealing with an absurd nature enemy that holds no morals or values, some details had to be released to put a lid on the propaganda churning machine next door.

Hi,

Basic 101 of COMBAT & WAR---never embarrass an enemy who is stronger than you---. Actually---never even embarrass an enemy who is weaker than you---.

There is no give and take on leaking operational procedures publicly---.

What HE released is in public domain---. The information that he has given out is running in the public domain---. Everything else was a rumor---.

I agree with it. There was no need to give any details. The could have answered the Yanks on official level on the use of F 16 once asked.

Hi,

The video of shooting the SU30 should have been leaked out---.

Actually, the Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee and DG ISPR should be rotated among the branches. It’s unfair for both posts to be reserved only for the army.

Hi,

You are correct---. The enemy is absurd---. So---just a video leak of their aircraft should have been released---.

Right now---there is too much information being given out---.

no idea about that.... man... the enmy is not a pagal/or kid who when provoked will act irrationally... anyway love your signature

Airforce officers are more educated and intelligent than army officers if they are given more role our defense will become much better as they will make much better decisions than army generals who have damaged Pakistan in past like musharaf slavery of u.s in the name of war on terror and nro and gen zia selection of nawaz

Sir, I'm sure you realise, in a BVR kill, video can only show so much....rest is highly classified....with lots of bl;ack square boxes needed to cover the details.

They way indians behaved this time and completely and constantly unprofessional behaviour by them deserved a little spanking


And well delivered
