There are a few nodes in the western theatre that are legacy ones and still not well connected with IACCS. AF is rectifying those through the assistance of talented startups.
Big: Integrated Air Command & Control System (IACCS) of Indian Air Force has successfully reduced sensor to shooter time even further while improving data linking capacity, redundancy & robustness.
Meanwhile Akashteer of Army plugged in to the IACCS to complement sustained high tempo joint ops in enemy terrain.

My father has a unresolved case with PCDA for the last 10 years now. He has written to them multiple times but nobody listens. He is yet to receive his disability pension arrears. It's disappointing.
#PCDA is the biggest enemy to our forces after neighboring countries.
Now, The troops are securing us in field areas. However, They did not realise that the same travel allowance they receive to visit Kashmir; away from their hometown; is now being taxed too which was always a tax free in form of warrant.
This is what we get, while armed forces around the world are given exemptions and respect. We, on the other hand, are taxing our soldiers more and more.
I hope @adgpi take this up and veterans community speak about it @majorgauravarya@MajorPoonia@GeneralBakshi@rwac48

One of India’s premier law enforcement agency is now working for a shady businessman and clearing any hurdles for him by arm twisting others.
As always, the country has accepted that this is the new normal.
That is the biggest misconception we all have.
All Theatre Commands will report to DMA i.e. the CDS. Which means all the operational action will happen under CDS.
@Tej_Intel CDS is not a command role, he does not command the Chiefs. He does not outrank them either. He simply gets promoted to 4-star so he can perform his limited mandate and doesn't get outranked by the Chiefs.
This would've only been a problem if CDS was a 5-star officer.
Help me understand how a 3 star officer can match the exposure and operational experience earned by a 4 star during their tenure. A Chief is at the top tier of decision making - manages numerous three-stars, manages the whole force, holds CCS/DAC/etc, several unknown/hidden tasks
The Field Marshal Who Earned ₹1,600
🎖️Did you know Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw-the legendary mastermind of India’s 1971 victory-was denied his proper pay for over 30 years?
As a 5-star general, he never technically retired. Yet, due to bureaucratic red tape, his monthly +
pension was frozen at just ₹1,600. He didn't complain; he just lived with his trademark dignity in Coonoor.
The twist? In 2007, President APJ Abdul Kalam stepped in. He personally flew to Manekshaw’s bedside, sorted the paperwork, and handed him a cheque for over ₹1.16 Crore +
IAF's move of bypassing the RFI/RFP for MRFA and directly awarding contract to Dassault was not a clever move economically. We handed over this bargaining chip on a platter.
The primary estimated (by MoD) cost of 126 MMRCA stood at ₹42000 crore (2007) and for the 6 P-75I 2021 it was ₹40000 crore. Now, in 2026, the collective estimated cost (by credible media source) of 114 Rafale & 6 TKMS subs stand at ₹424000 crore ($47 billion).
Global scenarios have kept Pakistan relevant during the whole second term of Trump.
Moreover, a major setback for India would be if/when US plans to invest in Balochistan. RAW would have to take a step back.
India should lobby hard to keep the US' interest away from Pakistan.
Met with Pakistani Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister @MIshaqDar50 and thanked him for the role Pakistan continues to play in advancing peace in the Middle East. We agreed upon the importance of working together to further strengthen a meaningful partnership for better security and more prosperity for our two nations.
Serbian President Vučić says Serbia operates Chinese missiles with ranges up to 400km and is acquiring more.
He praised China's weapons performance in the India-Pakistan conflict, claiming Chinese systems destroyed India's S-400 radar.
