Can you please point out who these people are? Because it sounds to me you are setting up a strawman. The MKI has 65%+ serviceability btw. Lousy "Print.in" reports apart. 65% isn't actually that bad. Even the USAF and USN (not that US is the gold standard for aircraft serviceability) stru...

Finally! Rather shameful we only had the courage to do this now, 70 years too late. Time to implement the China solution: displace the natives with good loyal citizens and in a few generations, no more Kashmir problem.

Y. Kanan

Of course, it's understood that any aircraft is going to be receiving mid-life updates as part of its normal life cycle. That is fine, but people here are talking like we won't have a real air force until we get those Rafales. Most of the pro-Rafale posts essentially dismiss the SU-30MKI fleet as in...

Y. Kanan

What the good Admiral is saying is that we went in that model and got nothing of substance that we can iteratively develop ourselves . Today, as we talk about upgrading the SU-30, those talks are with the Russians not with just DRDO & HAL. Can you imagine the Chinese talking to Russians to upgr...

The Su-30MKI, Vikramaditya, MiG-29K episodes are fresh in the minds of Indian military planners. I agree the Admiral Gorshkov\Vikramaditya saga was rediculous, and yes the Mig-29K sounds like a very unreliable aircraft, but why do you mention the SU-30MKI? Has it proven to be a disappointment as we...

Y. Kanan

I understand the IAF's unwillingness to buy the SU-57. It's unproven and it's claimed capabilities are dubious at best. But why not just buy something proven but cost effective? Why not build more SU-30MKI and just keep upgrading their sensors, avionics and weapons as new tech becomes available? Is ...

We often bash ourselves for decades of neutrality that has kept us off the world stage. This is one of those times where the benefits of neutrality become apparent. Back around 2003-2004, we had a lot of Indians (even on this forum) clamoring for India to join the US invasion of Iraq. Aren't we reli...

Anyway weird answer by Robert Palladino.

The NZ mosque shootings present a great opportunity for muslims to capitalize on white guilt and accelerate their takeover of western societies. I see whites tripping all over themselves to prove their dhimmitude in the wake of the attack. Self-censorship to squash anti-Islamic sentiment is now bein...

Western powers could also blacklist Azhar by adopting a Security Council resolution, which needs nine votes in favour and no vetoes by Russia, China, the United States, Britain or France. Already blacklisted by the UN Security Council in 2001, JeM is a primarily anti-India group. IMO this is a prel...

This "50,000 swaming across" is an old threat. Back in 2000 JKLF announced that 20,000 sh1ts would swarm across. Evil RAA Agints-e-PeeArefi put out the "newsflash" that PA intended to machine-gun them from behind to urge them on and allege jenn-o-cide by yindoos. March was cance...

What ended up being the story behind this photo? Was there any reason to think it isn't PA officers inspecting what looks like the remains of an F-16 engine?

Mods please ban this traitor immediately. But seriously this tells me we just need to shoot at a bigger target next time.

If we were to just target their Textile Industry, the impact will be huge. There should be a systematic effort to compete and undercut the Pakistani export capability by offering aggressive duty drawback and other incentives to our exporters.

Y. Kanan

For years I've been whining about the IAF's lack of precision targeting. But recent events show what the IAF really needs is some kind of stealth drone or long-range stealth missile. We don't need a massive fleet of strike aircraft; we just need to be able to strike any GPS coordinates in Pakistan w...

Y. Kanan

I disagree with the premise. India-Pakistan is no USA-Afghanistan, but the asymmetry is considerable - atleast in the air. Can India eliminate their air force with zero casualties - clearly no. But can India eliminate heir air force with the loss of say 25 SU-30’s? I think they can do it with a los...

Y. Kanan

It may be wise to just be realistic and admit we lack the military superiority to punish Pakistan without incurring heavy losses on ourselves. We don't have the standoff strike capability and we can't bomb them either; our aircraft cannot operate over Paki airspace safely; they are simply too vulner...

Y. Kanan

Sorry. It doesn't matter what the circumstances are. You don't shoot toward civilian aircraft under any circumstances. Period. The stoppage of commercial aviation in TSP frees up their SAMs to shoot at anything they don't recognize as it is likely to be Indian. They'll keep it up until it starts hu...

Y. Kanan

Ok again my uninformed guess here. One reason for Pakis to curtail flying might be to conserve aviation fuel for air force use. Though I think they will run out of planes before they run out of fuel. Civil Aviation is afraid of SAMs. Thanks to the Russian based thugs in eastern Ukraine who shot dow...

Another fake gas attack in the works. Much bigger strikes planned for this one:
US warns Syria against use of chemical weapons

I'm not worried, though. I'm sure the Russians can be counted on not to over-react.

Y. Kanan

It's galling, but once again the Russians, Syrians and Iranians will win by using their greatest superpower: the ability to absorb air strikes and casualties without over-reacting. Defeating the enemy by turning the other cheek. The Bible was right: the meek shall indeed inherit the earth.

Y. Kanan

It seems pretty likely, considering all the wailing currently going on within the US media and power elite, that after another chemical attack or better yet, a downed airliner, it would become politically impossible for Trump to pull out. It’s nearly impossible for Trump to defy the ruling establish...

Y. Kanan

This is all to such a dramatic climax so unexpectedly. What drama; Assad has this sudden opportunity, if he plays his cards right, to reunify the entire country by embracing the Kurds. If the Kurds Kay down their arms in a leap of faith and formally join the SAA, this can be held up to the entire Sy...

Y. Kanan

What a coup that will be if Kurds agree to immediately handover all their territory to Damascus. The SAA could move in quickly, before the Turks attack, and then dare Erdogan to start a shooting war with Syria, Iran and Russia. We always assumed that whatever the outcome of the war, the Kurd parts o...
