The F-35 is what gave the French a taste of their own medicine in its ability to continuously "gulp down" electronic emissions with no legal contracts covering it. And since in exercises anything you transmit is observable and therefore enforceable, while anything you absorb is unverifiable.

The Americans(and other NATO allies) were annoyed when Rafale's would do this in exercises and basically be "over-cautious" participants when in reality they were doing everything they could to capture whatever emissions(even those in training modes) from other participants. It was unmatched until the Lightening.

But that is like a Dyson vacuum - versus the black hole that is the F-35 which is like a flying Sigint station wherever and however it flies and transmits it across the fleet and system.

No worries.
We'll bait these black S holes with emissions arising from 2-3 days old chole kulcha. Once they 'gulp down' these, its game over.

Last F-35 in India was grounded for weeks to clear it's innards.

Worry about J-10C before taking on F-35

Going from air control to denial is probably the best option for India right now

When it comes to PAF and Chinese fifth and sixth gen manned and unmanned platforms threat , you can see them talking about S-400, kurdashn or surdashan, anti stealth radar, AWEC on X and youtube, according to their theory, stealth is no longer vital and they can go around the physics.

Rafale is no longer the pride of India and Su-30mki is no longer the raptor of the east.
