We need to up our CSAR capability & invest more in disproportionate aids - would the F-16s even have pressed their attack home if there were 2-3 Prowler type aircraft behind the IAF CAP jamming their FCRs etc. The IAF is an offensive AF & casualties are given but we owe it to them to give t...

Guys for India best move going forward is involvement of private sector in defense production/manufacturing while DRDO and ADA along with select academic institutions will focus on R&D and all TD/IOC phase of the program. FOC can again be done by a private company selected for manufacturing the ...

10:03 AM : One Indian Air Force Sukhoi Su-30 and one MiG-21 Bison engage this F-16 in a dogfight manoeuvre called "defensive split". The two Indian jets trap the Pakistani jet in between them -- the MiG 21 flies in front while the Su-30 chases the F-16 from behind, firing at it. The F-16 ...

Then it makes it all the more easily targeted by Scalp. Plus imagine if S-400's are around the border there. TSP won't be able to fly CAP missions within 0-30/40 kms of their border.

rafale has a highly independent penetration aid/self defence EW suite that permits it to slide in and out of contested airspace without need for much offboard support. when the "democracy" war started in libya, the french AF were offered the support of a growler squadron based in italy/sp...

Guys please watch Modi ji's *entire* speech in India Today conclave. Lots of great points. Look at people's reactions to various parts of his speech and you will be relieved of the tension/high BP caused by seeing absolutely low behavior from certain folks on SM. Don't mean to exaggerate or be emot...

Would like to bring up another incident at work today! A gora colleague ( who happens to be a pilot ) at coffee machine was talking to a paki colleague while I approach and we start talking general office gossip Suddenly the gora says that he read in the news that India sent a Mig 21 which is a rel...

Guys please watch it live here:

You should watch it as it happens.

Sumeet

Yep France and Israel would respond fastest as long as you have the $$$. Rafale gets combination of AESA and Meteor BVRAAM which will give us a huge boost. Imagine backed with AWACS, surrounded by MKIs and on ground having S-400, the long range Meteor will be a game changer. Also, Rafale + Avionics ...

Sumeet

What is this love for Rafale ? Root for LCA Tejas. I could undertsand this love for foreign stuff in comment section of TOIlet news article. It is disturbing to see people here just rooting for Rafale and ignoring LCA completely. Because they will come faster than Tejas and are more potent. To be h...

Sumeet

Pakistan's objectives to inflict harm on our military installation was not achieved. So it's a loss for them.

Sumeet

no follow up questions

Sumeet

that was very short

Sumeet

Mig 21 shot F-16, Pilot is missing in action

Sumeet

Air Vice Marshal will also be briefing, It will be a joint briefing -- As per Republic

Sumeet

what did he say ?

Sumeet

See this highlights the need to get new aircrafts and get rid of Migs as soon as we can

Sumeet

Yep. But let's be understanding of the fact that war always have casualties.

If TSP had upper hand they won't be asking for de-escalation ? They have got some unexpected response from IAF, no diplomatic support and beggar economy. They cannot afford to keep it going.

I thought forces were given free hand that means they can at least venture into PoK.

Anyone knows how are the wind patterns around LoC ?

Sumeet

Sid, Thats because we are chasing them across the LoC, they are not coming in here on our side

Sumeet

Why IAF is not briefing ? Why MEA ?

Sumeet

Thanks Bart and Singha for clarification.

Sumeet

And guys in war there is loss and win, think rationally if the objectives are met. Even in 71 war we had casualties but TSP was split.

Conflicting reports, MKI shot down, shot down by ground fire, it was a case of fratricide. Nothing is official yet.

Where did you see report of MKI being shot down ?

Sumeet

Opposition parties are meeting in Delhi. Entire Gathbandan there.

Sumeet

Sometimes I so wish there were no Migs anymore in the air force.

Sumeet

Anything with Pakistan at this moment requires his involvement, so nothing out of ordinary has happened besides TSP attempting some tricks to save H&D.

Sumeet

hey in US unless you are talking about California zone its already 27th.

Sumeet

Yeah why would they be training near LoC at this point in time

Sumeet

Republic English version just showed it (F-16 being shot by Su-30) again with commentary from Major Gaurav Arya.

Sumeet

According to Republic: Pak Army now admits didn't shoot down any aircraft in Bugdam

Their fake news campaign has been caught in the open.

Don't fall for anything that is not verified by Indian sources.
