Foreign secretary Vijay Gokhale to brief the media at 1130 today.
Re: Indian Air Forces Strikes Pakistan along with Ground Assault
Good call nam. I guess some of us just "knew" deep down inside that this time around, with NAMO in charge, things were different and we would retaliate.
I still remember the intense anger and helpless rage I felt each time there were previous terror strikes in India. The bomb attacks, the Mumbai ones. We just went numb.

Re: Indian Air Forces Strikes Pakistan along with Ground Assault
Great find! Now the question is why didn't US UAVs hit this place earlier in the last 15 years given that USAF UAVs are so ubiquitous in the AfPak region? Because the people at these training centers are not stateless terrorists, but rather Pak military officers and personnel at Balkot who are directly involved in terrorism, and the US can't hit them directly.Mohit A wrote:... received training in Balakot, PK, a location known to house a training camp that offers both basic and advanced terrorist training

Re: Indian Air Forces Strikes Pakistan along with Ground Assault
Karan or others, the fact that JF 17 bandars released flares means they were being targeted by IR missiles? Must have been close to IAF jets?
Re: Indian Air Forces Strikes Pakistan along with Ground Assault
Let me just say this....it is not Im The Dim's decision, and even he knows that. He's the new kid on the block and his job is to say 'Ji Huzoor' (Yessir) to what the Pak. COAS tells him to do. As for their fauj, I think they are not that stupid to launch a formal attack. I would not rule out terror attacks though.Iyersan wrote:Let me say this the LoC will open to Pakistani airforce strike today evening. mark my words. Im the Dim cannot take it lying down.

Re: Indian Air Forces Strikes Pakistan along with Ground Assault
My 2 cents, Khan is involved in this (somehow), and India bought both Khan/Bear in confidence before hitting Porkiland.
Panda/SA will not take their pawn/investment to be raped in plain sight.
We should not focus on Porkis, but on Panda/SA as pressure will come from there.

Re: Indian Air Forces Strikes Pakistan along with Ground Assault
If they are releasing flares and chaff and if that's a video from today, it means they could have been least locked onto by IAF jets. They released chaff & flares (chaff wont be visible at night) and likely ran out of the engagement zone.Karthik S wrote:Karan or others, the fact that JF 17 bandars released flares means they were being targeted by IR missiles?

This is very similar to a story told by a PAF pilot @ Kargil time, about how 2x F-16s on CAP were locked onto by patrolling IAF MiG-29S fighters, which had BVR and the F-16s didn't. The F-16s had to make a rapid about-turn and run off. The younger pilot was in shock when he returned back to base and heavily teased by his fellow pilots.
Re: Indian Air Forces Strikes Pakistan along with Ground Assault
Let the beggars retaliate against us now. With IAF fully alert. Every flying PAF jets will be targetted in their airspace.

Sharing this as it's all over Twitter anyway (not sure if it should be so easy to track).
But the Indian 'Netra' ERJ 145 early warning aircraft is still on a steady pattern to monitor Pakistani air movements along the border.

Re: Indian Air Forces Strikes Pakistan along with Ground Assault
MEA announced one strike in Balakot.
Re: Indian Air Forces Strikes Pakistan along with Ground Assault
"Non-military action" against terrorists as per FS. Clearly outlining that this is not an attack on "Pakistan" - which means that any retaliation by the Pakis will be treated as first strike. Is this our "drone strike" against training camps equivalent?

Chetak,
I hope adequate security is provided to all relevant DRDO personnel and IAF pilots and family. All of the people involved with all these efforts are a national resource and a jealous, petty Pakistan will attempt to target them if it can.

Guys press conference.
- JEM heads BIL Maulana Yousuf headed this facility
-Facility had many fedayeen, trainers and other personnel
- More reports on fedayeen gathering at this facility for attacks in India
- So we decided to do a pre-emptive strike to prevent further attacks
- In forested areas so avoided civilian casualties
- We call on Pak to live upto its commitment to prevent its soil from being used for terrorists etc

If the decision was taken earlier by the Modi government, there would not be extreme and highly-anxious incidents like Pathankot, Uri and Pulwama: Mayawati

Also, this means BJP/NDA politicians have to be careful and their security personnel on their toes 24/7 during 2019 General Election campaign.
Guys don't post any pics and details of these specific units or people involved in the programs at this time
