Out of curiosity, will the wing co be subject to any CoI as he continued to chase the bandits and got shot down in enemy territory?

Don't we have any AA guns/missiles at LoC? While I don't have any issue with Mig-21 taking on F-16(do remember that IAF had already practiced and surprised the US F-16s in an excercise few years back), its just that it felt like they walked into a trap which could have been avoided. My concern is mo...

Its a shame the pakis were successful in luring our Mig21 across the border into a trap. However, if we stop now, it will appear to be a stalemate. And will not change paki behavior a bit, rather gives them a boost of confidence. They need to feel a bit more pain, which imposes cost on them. Else th...

Pakis came near LoC, fired a few missiles across the border which didn't hit anything. Claimed they too can do it, and returned flashing Victory signs. Maybe one F-16 tried to take on a SU-30MKI in act of bravado and got his ass whipped. Nothing to see, pakis retaliated against bunch of trees (just ...

There is no relation between the chopper which crashed accidentally in budgam with the airspace violation that occurred 200 kilometers away in Rajouri.

The pakis jumped the gun as usual. The ones in the planes shot at a helicopter probably (unlikely as technical fault was mentioned) , and the ones on ground saw the F-16 and thought their glorious fizzle-ya show down Indian aircraft. ISPR wanted to announce to the world before confirming! More egg o...

Did the pakis get confused seeing their F-16 going down and thinking it was India's and arrested their own pilot??

putnanja

A psychological self-imposed redline has been blown away by this one action! All these while, while doing "khada nindan", there was a "why escalate" mentality due to MAD fear, which the pakis routinely took advantage of. Even after the surgical strikes, they thought it was a one-...
