@Kratos_Srikanth@SubhanJaved911 Its not peanuts. The second thing you mentioned is exactly is the problem. You can have a year developing a flame thrower and label it indegenous while the enemy serial producing AK-47's. That's the problem.
@Kratos_Srikanth@SubhanJaved911 Rafale gone down cause we didn't gone SEAD/DEAD early before main strike on May 7. It was a decision making loophole. Not because Rafale is incompetent. Some idiots in gov thought Pakistan would just sit down after IAF striking only terror hubs.
@Kratos_Srikanth@SubhanJaved911 Then why Tejas didn't gone to attack in Op. Sindoor? Tejas is just a learning curve platform overhyped to be combat usable. IT'S NOT. I mentioned 140 Rafales as a gap-plug into a main fleet of 200-250 Su-57 MKI and new upgraded Su-30 MKI V2 airframes. It can keep IAF afloat.
@SubhanJaved911@Kratos_Srikanth It will take atleast half a century for India to have self reliance + mass production capacity + technological parity in fighter and engine development arena. So you can only bet it run parallely and inject slowly to the pool. That's it.
@SubhanJaved911@Kratos_Srikanth Nop. I seriously think Su-57 MKI along a modernized new Su-30 MKI airframes of 4.5++ gen would be the only way out. Added with 140 Rafales offers some sort of parity if AWACS, tankers, transporters are taken care of. That's it. AMCA, Tejas are all smoke and mirrors.
@cyborg_reborn@napak_47 I mean there was no battle. The Operation Sindoor targetted infrastructure of Leshker-e-taiba and Jaish-e-Muhammed, ALL HIT!! [Jets lost due to military restraint, was a mistake, should have gone SEAD/DEAD]. IAF did hit the runways, control nodes and hangers on May 10.
@napak_47 Op.Sindoor targetted 9 militant camps of Leshker-e-taiba & Jaish-e-Muhammed. All was confirmed hits. [Jets gone down due to military restraint, yes IAF should have gone SEAD/DEAD early]. The runway, control nodes and hanger hits came on May 10 before ceasefire, not on Op. Sindoor
@Sauron_88@SubhanJaved911 They are sending it in salvo, not one by one. In 2025, some did hit Udhumphur AFS runway and side buildings and IACCS. Our interceptors can do good, but not comprehensively. We must also develop a rocket force and ability to track their TEL's on real time.
@Sauron_88@SubhanJaved911 Every missile? I don't think so. The Pakistani strategy is to swarm the Indian airspace with all kinds of projectiles so the ADS saturates and exhausts eventually.
We need something more than interceptors in this case.
@shen_shiwei Its actually confusing. The Chinese claim is Aksai Chin and China do control that area. The Ladakh region India controls is not claimed by China at all. So what's the issue in here actually?
@globaltimesnews I don't understand. What China claims is Aksai Chin, right? Not entire Ladakh. As far as I can understand, Aksai Chin is under Chinese control, so what territory are they talking about?
@ahm3d711 SIMPLE
There is no need for civilians to approach LINE OF ACTUAL CONTROL. People on both sides know it involves risk of being shot from [especially] Indian side due to history of militant infiltration.
Also your armed forces incompetent to keep civilians off proximity to LAC?
