While all last week the Indian Defence Personal have been waving a piece of an American missile in a futile exercise to somehow give credibility to their ridiculous claims of shooting down an F-16. In fact it was more of desperation to get American attention to complain about US systems in Pakistani hands, hurting Indians, like a little child crying for his broken toys.
Even if this piece of missile is genuine, the irony is that Pakistan also found a piece of Russian R-73 Missile but never made any issues about it since it was found amongst the MiG-21 Bison of the IAF which the PAF shot down. Missiles don't just fall out of the air and land in your enemy's territory until or unless they are fired at a target or the missile platform it'self becomes the victim. While the whole world saw Pakistan shoot down the MiG-21 and capture the pilot hence the discovery of R-73 in the wreckage, Indians OTOH by showing just a piece of AMRAAM are basically waving a Red Cloth to a Bull. Basically the Indians could only have recovered the remains of the missile from it's victim which would be an IAF aircraft that crashed in the Indian territory.
