There is a YT channel called Ate Chuet run by a former French Navy Rafale pilot. Some useful tid-bits of info such as that the Scalp can be fired from low altitude. The missile then climbs to the cruising altitude that has been programmed for that mission. This is one more reason why I would be very...

Their PL15 E apparently has course correction capability "The hybrid guidance system supports a mid-course two-way datalink led by AEW&C aircraft and autonomous terminal radar homing" according to wiki. Okay. This does not make sense to me. From what I understand: Accurate targeting d...

Updated strike map of Pak land: https://x.com/detresfa_/status/1929806411178840145 Two things that still puzzle me about the target set 1. The IAF briefing clearly had a before and after pic of a radar site called Arifwala. That is now missing from Detresfa's map. Neither have i been able to geoloc...

My issues with the CDS interview 1. Giving this 1-1 to a foreign agency, like an exclusive scoop. 2. He doesnt offer any new +ve insight, sharpening the focus on the bit about we lost jet(s) 3. Unclear and contradicting himself. He says both that ac went down and pak didnt down any (or was he denyin...

^^ There is no analysis available in public domain unless it is from the other side. It is best to focus on what was achieved over those 3 days. Losses if any are part of a war and the goal is to achieve our objectives - which we did with flying colors. I didnt find the pic of the Rafales tail fin ...

Check out youtube channel ‘Lei’s Real Talk’ video called Power Shift in China : What Zhang Youxia’s rise reveals. She says he was involved in guiding Pak during Op Sindoor.

QUESTION - There were videos uploaded by Pak public of huge explosions at Rafiqui / Shorkot Rd airbase. But neither the IAF nor pvt handles like Detresfa have posted any satellite imagery of the damage.
Anyone knows why? Or did i miss it?

prashantsharma

Answering your valid question to best of my ability 1. Most pak fighters which arent in the air, will be parked in the hardened aircraft shelters (HAS / blast pen). All pak airbases have these and some have huge numbers of them. Sargodha and Mianwali have upwards of 50 each, which will be much more ...

At strategic, tactical and technical levels, we have done a superb job. Showed we learnt from past operations and were ready at short notice. Took the initiative to set the pace of operations once thresholds of patience were crossed and the porkis just couldnt keep up amd had to ask for a TO. The go...

Isnt it time to rid ourselves of this “proportionate” BS and move to disproportionate. They arent getting the message. For a change we did exactly this. The pakis wargamed this horribly. Thought they would control the intensity and trajecyory, starting with drones and arty. And that they would dete...

prashantsharma

Again, for anyone still doubting that a rafale was hit, pls see the Flight Global article. They have pointed out why its a fake image. In addition to the points they mention, also notice that the fin in the fake pic is just a single plate of metal, with no internal volume/ space for the wiring for t...

prashantsharma

Also add improving the protection for aircraft on ground. About 2/3rds of the Su fleet is still sitting exposed on ground without proper HAS with blast protection doors, which will also be useful for keeping out drones. The majority of current blast pens btw dont have doors, some are open on both si...

No one less than Flight Global has highlighted discrepancies in the so called rafale crash pics.
Pls look up the article "ackward discrepancies in indian rafale shootdown images"
They also heaped scorn on reuters and cnn.

Thanks Aditya V and Rakesh for pointing out the recovery of amraam wreckage.
My memory needs a little sharpening!

prashantsharma

Couple of additional points - the Su could have also used the mountains and valleys to hide themselves, break the lock and escape. At the end of its flight the amraam is coasting and is subsonic if i am not mistaken, so it can be evaded by engaging AB and turning away Did IAF ever find the wreckage ...

The MiG-29K/KUB have been a disaster for the Navy. At the turn of the century, did the IN have an option other than the 29K for a ski jump carrier? Maybe only second hand harriers or AV8s (which have pretty high attrition rates btw). We were able to get them in big numbers (everyone here loves 'qua...

This would have been true in the past with respect to the seats on gnats, hunters. The present day fleet of western fighters like jags, mirages, hawks have rocket powered ejection seats. Please tell me how? It's been a long time my dad and brother retired from IAF. Haridas ji, One saw this post much...

Noted. Thanks

Didnt the crash happen at night?

The IA and IAF need time to build up helo pilot strength and train new aircrew. In my view they will have to raise new units and i dont think they have any bench strength of helo pilots.

Yes, its an impressive poster... if i remember correctly, there was a range of such impressive posters for drones / LMs

The ramp's inadequacy was glaringly evident even before the induction of the C17s. At 45x45m, the IAF cant even park two An32s, which are 30x25m Sorry to spoil that dream of yours, this so called planning dept has had 25 yrs post the Kargil ops to improve the airfield.

In the widely circulated video which is about a minute long, the speedboat makes two left and two right turns. So clearly, there is nothing wrong with its steering. I also wonder why the navy would, in its first press release, go so far as to state what it believed to be the cause of the accident ie...

My understanding is that a hypersonic missile in it's hypersonic phase of flight is, due to the ionised layer around it, unable to use on board sensors or receive updates from other sensors through a data link. At this stage it can only use INS. Hence if it has to remain hypersonic in it's final sta...
