I hope some day we will also preempt and not just retaliate. Will do chemotherapy and not cosmetic surgery. The loss of life wasn’t commensurate, pakis lost the bottom feeders lunatics while India lost educated professionals.

Terror attack of April 22 was escalation for us, says foreign secretary Vikram Misri
I hope this is diplomatic niceties are for the world and we have shifted from the Terrorism is normal and reactionary in nature to Daily taking out terrorists from their factories to the launchpads and make it a new normal. That's the least nation can expect if not for an Akhand Bharat and resolving terrorism and it's cause forever.

From a guy called Vikrant who is followed by few OSINT handles.
It crash landed near our place i have longer video
Here is the second part of the video shot by someone else. 2 pakistan jets are hunted by Akash anti air system over akhnoor sector. One f16 confirmed hit.
Missiles are clearly being launched from our side.
Full video in the link below.

See the video in the below link. A screenshot from the video is given here. Looks like Brahmos failed during the flight. Deans ji or others can confirm it?

For some reason the Western/Western woke Channels are forced to be closer to neutral than ever. The comment section is flooded with people supporting India against terrorism. Pakis as usual coming with their 5 plane, peace comments. There is a global shift towards public opinion for India. People don't mind even if we take out Pakistan military altogether. This will put their own leaders from making unsavory comments against India. Some usual lunatics may say something in support of Pakistan probably much later. Others will be very cautious.

what could be pakistan response of Operation Sindoor?

Like India ,they might opt for various stand off measure like : MBRL(Fatah-1/2, A-100E), ALCM - Raad 1/2 and Babur variants.
I hope we are fully prepared for this attack and if possible do counter-attack at that time and take out those launch platform.

My guess is the air bases from where our air strike packages took off from.

Given Khwaja's statement about de-escalation, would the Bakis still launch an attack? Or was the de-escalation perfunctory Baki Al-Taqqiya?

If any of those work beyond well prepared test flights for propaganda. They can bring the F-Solas to the frontline for some BVR action but S-400 strike is the risk. Best option is some cheese fire violation and may be terrorist suicide action. But that will invite more action from us. So overall they can go with the claim of downing the secret extra Rafales we had in our inventory :rotfl:.

If they are attacking, they will attack all across rather than one on one game which they will lose with minimal damage to India. Their only option of choice is massive attack spread across to cause maximum damage as last resort. Every post to every installation must be ready to defend and destroy and counterattack massively with precision.

My bad guess is they might target Guj or something symbolic like that.... and an armored thrust in JK. They typical Mughal style will pick on less defended or weak target and overwhelm it for max propaganda

A n00b question, since the Bakis have declared their Babur missile to be 'nuclear', how does one know if a launched missile is conventional or nuclear? Or effectively have the Bakis in their bluster taken out a possible missile from their arsenal?

Agastiji asked the same question as well.

Short answer is we dont and neither do the Pakis. And that is why short range tactical ballistic missiles are so destabilising. It may be that we used Pralay as well which is a tactical ballistic missile.

However note that while our posture is of assured retribution it is definitely not launch on warning. In other words, we will verify before we retaliate disproportionately. The argument is that there is no harm in waiting assuming you have an assured second strike capability - better to verify and retaliate instead of a ghastly mistake.

The US and USSR were launch on warning precisely because of huge number of warheads, unreliable accuracy of missiles which meant that they did not have a reasonable guarantee that their second strike would survive or someone will be around to do it.

We are not in that space yet.

Most of what they say is plain propaganda. Babur is probably another Chinese demo maal that does not work in real scenario. Just imagine how many times we test our missiles to validate vs their tests. How many videos have we seen these missiles hitting a target, night trails etc.

Being a weaker power they should demonstrate more in plain sight to deter a larger power. Pakies are just talkies - nothing more.

The 3 south indian YT talking heads (Lt Gen P R Shankar, Maj Gen R. Narayanan and PGurus Sree Iyer) are at it for analysis on operation sindoor. Worth a look. Some info on weapons (scalp, hammer, drones) used. Coordination and surprise with precision strike all over in 25 mins. Next steps are discussed (ASim Munir is caught is a catch 22). There is artillery exchange by the Pukes. This time the Pukes are targeting civilians, which is new. This is going to alienate the civilians against Puke. The intel on the ground is that in each sector (of brigade unit of IA) the PA unit is sometime missing or non-existent. The IA is rather strong and if PA resorts to more firing on the LOC they will be wiped out this time. The PA has only 4 days of ammo supply, they don't have the wherewithal for more at this stage. The fuel supply is also dire for the PA around 6-7 days that is it. Some amount has been spent and the prognosis is looking rather gloomy for the PA to fight the IA. What is next for ASim Munir?

I think the Sindoor is only the beginning., any paki army response will be met by a magnitude more military response against their military , India's diplomatic outreach is precisely to empower this.
Will the pakis take the bait ?!

This is a deliberate ploy
If they ignore then there will be two issues:
1. Internationally you are accepting that those killed were indeed terrorist and not worthy of any respect
2. Ignore and the awam will raise against you questioning your commitment
So by doing so they want to show to international community that innocent civilians were killed and they are just honouring their citizens!!

Seems like the pakis have reopened their air space as FR24 shows flights landing and taking off from Lahore. We should not rule out the possibility of paf using this and trying a sneak attack. It will be difficult for us to use long range missiles in case there are civilian aircraft in the vicinity.

I am sure IA, IAF and IN have their plans and targets to respond if they escalate and it could be quite devastating for them. So no worries if they want to sneak in something. Bottom line GoI and armed forces did their home work after Balakote and now are prepared well based on how they conducted the morning brief.

It all depends on how effectively they are able to spin the narrative of downing Indian Rafales and whether bhooka nanga and now increasingly pyaasa abduls on the street believe it. The trust in TSPA has been consistently eroding and already questions are being raised on SM on their initial claims. They will be forced to respond as this time they will not be able to keep things under the wrap and the proof released by India has spread widely. In contrast last time TSP had Abhinandan in custody and India did not have the proof of downed F16.

Some of them have their comment section turned off. I think govt bans all those channels or news reports that prevent Indians from commenting or countering their propaganda. These are Free speech denial by foreign channels and we give them a free pass.

To calm the terrorist awaam, strategically brilliant Paki Army will attack some temple, my gut feeling is that it will be in Gujarat and given their impatience they will try to do it tonight. Hope all the air assets are ready to send a message to Paki land.
