There isn't enough evidence available to conclude HQ-16EF/HQ-9BE failed technically. All We can say is, PAF lack adequate numbers of AD compared to IAF. Former only has 1x battery of HQ16EF and 1x battery of HQ9BE. While the later has an order of magnitude more AD systems. Indian navy is much...

NYT isn’t always very bright when it comes to military matters. afaik Pak literally has nuclear bunkers? In event of a full blown war, their strategic command isn’t going to be sitting in ministry of Defense building or at GHQ. I doubt India has anything in its conventional arsenal to destroy...

It is not clear at this point if it was Modi or Pakistanis that ran to US.

Just compiling here. Not sure if true or not.

Apperantly, @Oscar was saying in the other place that he personally received verified images of debris that maybe from Brahmos. I trust him so i find it interesting.

This doesn’t look like AL-31. More likely RD-33 of Mig-29.

Doesn’t Brahmos have TERCOM? @Nilgiri

Not gonna work. It is not going to be compatible. The reason PAF did well is because they have a system of systems in place notting together AWACS, jammers, Ground AD and figthers. This excellent level of integration allowed the formation of fighters in the sky to pull a very synchronized and...

This is well put in principle. (Nothing to disagree w.r.t to how you distinguished between dynamic assets and relatively static assets. How they differ in critical ways during combat employment and complicated factors that are usually at play for dynamic assets.) I may quote you somewhere else...

fair enough. But do you apply this level of scrutiny to Western Or Indian systems? Did India really develop AESA tech? Sure DRDO published some photos and showcased some stuff in Defense fairs that look like AESA components. But we will actually never know until whatever platform it is...

Bro, I am honestly curious how did you come to that conclusion? Did you gathered sufficient evidence from past few days events? i haven't specifically looked into the performance of both countries ADs and had my focus on Air battles. But in general afaik, PAF HQ9 BE uses new GaN based AESA...

Yes.

Nah, bro it ain't interesting if it is in your neighborhood. These nuclear armed countries are getting bold and desperate. It was fun the first night. Not anymore.

Apperantly it has started. And ongoing right now.

Things continue to escalate.

On a separate note, I didn't like the fact that Indian government blocked The wire. That shows some desperation.

Well, I am gonna need more than the audio itself to be convinced that they actually decrypted Rafale's secure comm. Psychological warfare seems to a big part of past few days events. Both sides are trying their best (or worse to) to outdo each other.

Intact? It's clearly missing the head.

Agreed.
