Operation Ghazab Lil Haq (Pakistan - Afghanistan War)

[iron shrapnel]

View attachment 186313JF-17s over Islamabad and Rawalpindi. There are reports of drones over Taxila as well. Won't be surprised if these drones were launched inside of Pak territory @side-winder @Panzerkiel

As long as the supply chain is disrupted these don't matter and can be used as reason for more retaliation... Why are jets being used for interception though ? Are there no cheaper solutions ?

@side-winder Brother I'm sure we can source cheap copies of something like this from China until we have domestic capacity. Something like this isn't complex

It makes it economical to intercept drones. Give it to units in every major city and site.

It's very likely these drones were launched by sleeper cells within Pakistan territory. And it's an alarming situation

Just hours after strikes on Nangarhar and Kabul, we are seeing drones over Islamabad and Rawalpindi

It's alarming how hobbyist RC systems are being weaponised. The drone swarm Islamabad, Kamra and other parts of Pakistan witnessed days ago, is witnessing it again. And this drone swarm op has the hallmarks of the Ukrainian operation against the Russians last year dubbed operation spiderweb

I mean it's not really rocket science, they have had militants stationed in Pakistan and many sympathisers and so they gave them drones.

Pakistan needs those interceptor drones at every major site and city. Cheap and economical.

It needs to maximise intel collection internally and surveillance, IBOs. Strike harder at sustainment infrastructure in Afghanistan.

Round up Afghan settler refugees and their ethno nationalist sympathisers

Same question I've been having. Guess the entire anti-ucas doctrine is still reliant on two commandos on a bike with G3s lol.

Probably @side-winder can give a more apt explanation as to why fighter intercepts are being used against these Taliban drones. Considering the range and the payload they've been carrying, they aren't exactly harop level threats

Get a couple of industrial 3D printers and you can make these here. Of course despite the literal PHD level learnings from Ukraine, no one has prepared aptly for a drone war. Seriously none of the major powers have.

ADA is scrambled just in case if ground AD fails to neutralise them either through soft or hard kill means. Otherwise the aircraft won't use its armaments.

 

[hasssanali8998]

Also note, they are activating these sleeper cells to do these meaningless attacks. I would rather have them do this and get caught than do a suicide bombing in a mosque

hard kill

by hard u mean Oerlikon or other AA right

 

[side-winder]

by hard u mean Oerlikon or other AA right

Anything like Anza / FN-16 can do the job.

Is ground AD economical?

Yep. Happened around 6:55 am. Garrison/GHQ side View attachment 186312

How can they get that deep into Pakistan?

How can they get that deep into Pakistan?

Launched from within via smuggling. They are hobby-tier drones not military-tier

May have been launched from within.
