Operation Sindoor - Bharat Strikes Back: Jai Hind!

[chetak]

Follow up on Jamval's finding of the missile hit on Pakistani strategic weapon storage site.
https://x.com/JaidevJamwal/status/19213 ... DUnyg&s=19


If Jamval is correct on the destruction of nuclear warheads then the radiation inside the bunker will be high and other conventional munitions and warheads will be hard to recover. Is that correct? Alternatively India only damaged the tunnel entrance to send the warning message.

Another video of a missile contrails in the air soon after the missile hit on the target. See the video in the link.

Destruction of a nook warhead silo by conventional explosives will not trigger a chain reaction .
Triggering fission needs precise conditions including temperature ,pressure and multiplication factor k = 1.
Sudden conventional strike will lead to dispersion of the components of the nook . It'll end up being super critical (k> 1) .
Will lead to "conventional chain reaction " is the conventional explosives used as trigger in the nook will start blowing up.
Also the neutron reflector won't be aligned so no chain reaction.
Will lead to dirty bum effect but silos are supposed to be isolated anyway.

AmberG , VT and other pro fizzicks wallahs can pitch in an correct me if I am thinking wrong

gakakkad ji,


A nuke chain reaction is very unlikely


but a dirty bomb like after effect will happen for sure, even as the radiation leaks out and causes contamination


It's not a nuclear explosion, but a radiological one that occurs.


this is why there are persistent rumours that an amriki team (with a specially instrumented aircraft) is in pak right now because radiation leaks have been detected post Indian missile strikes and attacks

verification and confirmation awaited

The war is not over and continues in different domains.

Diplomatic - India will list TSPA Gernails as terorrists using same laws that U.S. used to get Qasem Soleimani listed as terrorist

Covert war will continue.

After Action Reviews already underway and actions being taken.

[williams]

No body asked a question about the largest dog fight in world history. TSPA says they will use their downhill skiing as training material for world armed forces. It sounds like slowly TSPA behavior will end up in towels thread. Especially some of the communication from Pindi Pete and their DMs speeches will have to provide life time of entertainment. I don't understand how these people raise to these ranks in the Pakiland.

How India managed to thwart Pakistani aerial onslaught with its layered air defense system ?

In April 2024, Iran’s much-anticipated attack on Israel came.
This was not a small-scale raid but a large and complex onslaught consisting of drones as well as ballistic and cruise missiles.
But Israel aided by U.S. was able to defend itself.
IDF reported that all 170 Drones were intercepted, all 30 Cruise missiles were taken down and only 7 out of 120 Ballistic missiles went through.
This is an incredible achievement since it constitutes a super interception rate, with more than 300 targets taken down in a single day.

In the last three days, India has accomplished something similar as Pakistan launched a large aerial campaign after India struck 9 terror camps as part of Operation Sindoor in response to the Pahalgam terror attack.

BTW in all this it looks like the Chinese were really upset. Pakis ran to their old uncle USA when they are supposed to call the new Uncle China. Pakis for all their dumbness knew that new uncle has zero influence with their giant enemy

[prashantsharma]

Again, for anyone still doubting that a rafale was hit, pls see the Flight Global article. They have pointed out why its a fake image.
In addition to the points they mention, also notice that the fin in the fake pic is just a single plate of metal, with no internal volume/ space for the wiring for the RWR which sits just above where the fin ends in the pic.
The air marshal is happy to let the pakis delude themselves longer with his clever choice of words.

Forummers may note a specific Baki disinformation fraud which is all over social media. In fact it was just how posted and then deleted in this thread

It’s supposed to be a Telegraph UK article analysing how the IAF ‘failed’ against a much superior PAF. It isn’t true. It’s made up by the Bakis.

This is how it works:

First they link you to an actual Telegraph (UK) article.

When you click the link you find the article is paywalled.

The Baki then very conveniently pastes ‘a copy of the article’ to ‘help you read it’

But what you are reading is not the same article in the link. It’s psyops. However you walk away thinking it’s legitimate.

Please be warned as this BS ‘article’ is reasonably well written and can fool the unwary

[AdityaM]

It is still not clear what spooked the US, which in turn spooked us.

However the US - China trade deal has happened 24 hours after the US got us to stop decimating China's poodle.

Was the US intervention done on behalf of sealing a deal with China?

Buddy, the first thing I did on April 22nd is blocked a bunch of traitorous twitter handles, including some Congi ones. Point is we don't care about foreign fake news media and their OGWs in India. Their goose is cooked by their own country citizens. The proof of our victory will be how Paki's are squeezed in the coming weeks and months. They are going to run around without water and food. BTW, it is quite sad that their leaders are not even thinking about it. If the Pakis are so powerful why are most of all the petrol stations in Islamabad is closed for the last week? Their islamic friends are not even supplying them with basic resource like fuel. Let us not even waste time with these news trash cans and focus on real news.

Ji honest truth is major powers around the world don't care about a third-world terrorist basket case called Pakistan. US simply made a friendly call and our folks told them to let the Paki DGMO talk. We already told them that our goal is not denuking TSPA or hitting their military assets. Pakis foolishly thought by using their ding-dong cheap toy drones and missiles they can create some panic in India. When India responded a bit and accidentally bumped off their crown jewels a little, they ran to the US and not to China. It is the jingoes in BR who thought we are going to get PoK, GB etc. Goi was clear from the get go they are not doing that for reasons best known to them.

Yes, it is a "must watch" for everyone on this forum. The good General pretty much comes out and flatly states that TSP's crown jewels are now permanently sealed away in their underground caves, TSP is nuke-nood, according to him.

I also recommend the article on "Akashteer" posted by Chetak on the previous page of this thread. Very inspiring. Link here:

Radiation risk

Radiation leakage has caused panic in Pakistan, prompting pleas for aid from the US, with multi-source confirmation of the events.
While the underground detonation minimizes radiation spread, minor leakage affects Pakistan most, with possible airborne effects on India.
Uncertainty remains until confirmation of the nuclear facility's destruction is obtained.
US flights in Pakistan hint at a confirmation of destruction of nuclear arsenals.
Pakistan's nuclear capability significantly compromised.
Kirana Hills, used for storing nuclear assets, suffered radiation leakage.
A significant revelation was the leaked nuclear radiations, raising major concerns.

Pakis even scared to anywhere near the facilities apparently !!

I think Bharat did far more damage than expected.. the attack was with pin point precision

Top secret satellite launch scheduled for May 18th.

A notable feature of RISAT-1B is its five distinct imaging modes. These modes enable the satellite to switch between ultra-high-resolution imaging-capable of detecting small objects with up to one-metre resolution-and broader scans for large-area observation.

This flexibility is vital for both military and civilian applications, allowing the satellite to adapt to diverse operational needs. For defence, RISAT-1B’s technology is especially significant: it can track enemy movements, detect infiltrations, and support anti-terrorism operations, providing continuous and reliable intelligence to security forces. The ability to detect minor changes, such as fresh soil disturbances or new encampments, gives Indian forces a decisive edge in monitoring and responding to threats.

I think we are building capability to start striking as soon as a camp gets setup across the border.

Modi went for the nukes, perhaps the only world leader in the history who cannot be blackmailed by nuclear bluff.

[RCase]

Now the pause is making sense.

TSP is in panic mode of potential radiation leak and possibly begged Unkil to check if there was radiation leak. The Pakis possibly don't have the technical expertise to handle a potential nook leak scenario. For Unkil to inspect the facility would require them to fly their sniffer plane and possibly their experts to check it out. This would require a PAUSE and this might be the reason why Modiji might have quickly agreed to a pause and not a cease fire (Similar to Modiji's request to Putin and Zelensky to get Indian students out of the war zone).

It would be awesome if India did a flypast of all india's rafale on Independence day.

Old Timer checkin on BR jingos.

1. The beating which PAF got in 90 minutes was beyond my wildest imagination.

2. If IAF lost aircraft on Day 1, dig into RoE. Civilian airspace was open, military was not to be targeted. Very likely it allowed PAF AWACs to come closer to the border than they could and hence allow long range BVR shots via mid-course correction.

3. We do not have much evidence of use of A2A weaponry by IAF. No pictures from TSP etc. Very likely the RoE did not allow a 1st shot A2A launch. PAF knew that and possibly exploited that.

4. PAF was using civilian aircraft as a shield during the period they were preparing to launch their drones. I think all AirForces, including India should declare that for Terrorist Sponsor, civilian aircraft can no be used as a shield and will not be treated as NPC and not stop others from engaging.

5. All those worried about whether IAF aircraft went down, losses are a part of war. In the war-games and stories written over the decades, the losses IAF took were estimated to be much bigger, and I do not think anyone thought that PAF would receive this kind of mauling.

6. Hope peace prevails and India can focus on doubling the economy in the next 10 years.

Operation Sindoor: How Pakistan Stood Down After India's Attack

India’s Operation Sindoor dismantled key terror infrastructure, prompting a desperate Pakistani appeal for a ceasefire.

Despite US claims of mediation, it was Pakistan that reached out to India’s military leadership to halt hostilities.

The Indian response was measured, precise, and decisive—altering the battlefield and the narrative.

With global support behind it, New Delhi set new rules of engagement.

This is the inside story of how the ceasefire came to be—and how India forced Islamabad’s hand.

What ratio is termed "overwhelming superiority" of the kind Amrus talk about? Is it 2:1 or 10:1? 10:1 would be a turkey shoot.

Thank you sir for coming back at the right time and making those points.

I don't know if you are aware of a Tamil film comedienne, Vadivelu whose lines seem to fit almost any occasion. He said in a movie, "Which fracas ends without a torn shirt?". Loss of an asset is understandable in an intense attack by us. Of course, we will learn from this. DGAO, while hinting at the loss also said y'day that TSP also lost a few.

Western media says that it was the nuclear move by TSP which led to the US stepping in. TSP does not have nuclear missiles on trigger. It has recessed deterrence. It takes time therefore to prepare the payload and mate it to the missile. Both US & India have some intel on such preparations giving them a lead time, I believe. India would not have agreed to a ceasefire (or stoppage of operations or whatever) unless it was also convinced because we have constantly faced nuclear threats from them and yet have successfully punished them calling off their nuclear bluff. But this time seems different because India has also seemingly been convinced of the threat.

If true, this shows the frightening dominance established by our forces in such a short time of operations that pushed TSP to a nuclear response. At the same time, is the NCA of Pakistan re-drawing newer and even lower redlines than what were existing before and even more recklessly behaving?

[williams]

^^^ Also AM said all pilots came home. That is good enough for now.

Apparently US NEST team has arrived to detect radiation leak. So the threat is not about India being threatened it is about Indian action causing a Nuclear radiation emergency. That tells me just having nuclear weapons is not enough. There has to be layered ways to protect it and ways to survive attacks. India deciding NFU early has helped us to build systems to survive the first wave of attack.
