Re: Operation Sindoor - Post Conflict Analysis

Has anybody connected this recent conflict with Gen Paddy's book that he wrote in 2004, 'India Checkmates America'? It is eerily prescient and even mentions Akash at one place. Of course the antagonist in the book is the US but the scenario with India intercepting all its missiles is incredibly sim...

The Integrated air defence environment that stopped the multiple Pakistan air attacks is one testament to GOI silent activity. All the airbases were hit, with the majori...

To me what is fascinating is IAF got into the OODA loop and paralyzed the Pakistanis. Just 15 Brahmos-A. Both Chess and Go are two dimensional games.

We have 5 lakh women in rural areas trained on drones. It's only Military spit and polish that prevents using them in war.
