Re: MRCA (Many Rakshaks Choose Aircraft) Contest - Episode III
Matter of fact, I think having a sharp, irresistible "aerial dagger", such as the 36 Rafales is enough. Ultimately our war objective, imho, would be to achieve air dominance over Lahore-Peshawar-Isloo triangle air-space, "the heart of NaPak", which is merely ~40k sq kms. In any ...

The T-72 Akash Launcher was such a beauty. I remember watching videos in early 2010s where it would go hopping sand dunes, while swinging the missiles. Looked so alive:
