Great strategy.. Couple of queries : Aircraft carriers carry fighter aircrafts, right..? In case of Indian carriers, Mig-29Ks.. Will they allow F-5s to come close enough ? Also a carrier group has some destroyers/ frigates as well. In Indian case they will be armed with Barak-8/Barak-1 combo.. Can F-5 evade this protection layer..?
Whether many F-5's or even a dozen or 2 dozen ASM's can evade a carrier group like India's. Reality of the fact is, unless you possess a complete air dominance package like the USN does (in combination with the USAF), i.e. attack the enemy from way far or from closer ally airfields and keep the USN ships away, navies of other countries are their weakest links.
Each ship costs hundreds of millions to build and only have like 12, 24 or 36 SAM missiles for simultaneous protection during one attack. Combined ASM's with high tech AESA based jamming (where different beams designed to work as many Microwaves working on different frequencies to fry up your Radar's seeker and its main board, or cause loss of service, the ship doesn't have a whole lot of other defense left. A fighter jet still has some chance to leave the fight or speed up and run away before a lock on is obtained, ships move slowly so they are hard to defend if your SAM systems or radars are overwhelmed and you are not the USN, which means you could have many systems working together to defend you.
In India's case, she'll have to park her critical assets about 600+ KM's away as Pakistan's extended EEZ is now around 350-400 KM and from that edge, for the next two hundred miles, the Indian ships (specially the AC), will be in range of Pakistan's ASM's. But the issue is, being 600+ KM out, it will negate the purpose of any blockade, will allow plenty of time for the Pakistani's to prepare to defend (EW), and will limit India's naval aircraft's capability to loiter for longer times or go deeper inside Pakistan.
No Thats Pakistani Actress Ayeza.
I guess I need to find me some career in the local film industry there. She's good looking.
