NOTE: Still waiting for Maxar et al to show something on Indian AFB to back up Pakistan's claims.
Vishnu Som on his twitter page now has collection of the Maxar sat pics that have come out so far
(Bholari is where 5 PAF airmen died):
uh no it didnt. It provided decent CAS and A2G on the objectives there....PAF had to stay out of it as they had that ruse these were local militants and not their guys.
That was a totally different kind of war and context to whats going on now.
"My precious rafales"....da hell lmao. No one...
I'll make it real simple for you to understand.
If India doesnt have the israeli apex all sorted out and invested in to degree needed for one-offs. Its going to skip that part, and keep it for spear girth instead.
As to why this has transitioned from earlier use of Indian army for this apex...
Yah I use it catch all reference for "western media". They are seen as gold standard and the time was lot better managed overall in cold war to some degree compared to total crap its like now in comparison (western media ecosystem).
So how are other media ecosystems going to be and then social...
It is important to realise that India has not denied it took losses in the air.
The conflict window will have to wrap up and debrief given to degree its done.
This is the strategy India has long followed....ever since all kind of huff and puff done in various media (international or local)...
Some claims of recent strikes appear to have been exaggerated
Today we're looking at more satellite imagery from recent strikes between India and Pakistan. India showed that some claims of damage to airfields was doctored pictures and recent imagery shows no effect from the recent waves of...
We just want to see proof of even 1% of this being done in reverse to India after all the "Indian AFBs destroyed, S400 destroyed" official claims....and then the "oh we have to wait for other people's space programs to give us sat intel...trust me bro, wait!" and then...a deflating sound at end.
Sometimes the attacks are routed through all kind of countries. Sometimes they are even delayed and held in buffers in those countries....for later etc.
Its very hard to trace to original source....and if its targetted or generalised on all "defence talk that isnt ours" etc
Near jacobabad etc, some decent pics came out of wreckage there.
But point is whatever the % interception in the end (claimed vs true), there is objective BDA diffferential between the two sides especially with the strike claims they officially made before the BDA came out.
The use of Brahmos...
Some of these are more obvious than others, but all appear to have taken some damage
Today we're looking at new satellite imagery showing the results of India's air strikes against Pakistani military targets. I would expect we'll see something similar over Indian military locations in coming...
This whole thing reminds me of the 2019 balakot radar tracks but no objective proof regd the F-16 shootdown.
Lot of trust me bro visuals in the Pakistan presser (for the cope and seethe regd what has clear BDA on their AFBs).
But where's the BDA on Indian side that was asserted to the level of...
