Pakistan-India Conflict 2025: News Updates and Discussion

Thank you for showing us this capability. Alot of things for us to study. Which ones we were able to successfully intercept and why. Which ones we couldn't and why. And what do we need to further improve the interception rate.

However, the absence of real data in respect of our cruise missile will keep the puzzle alive for you while preparing for the next conflict.

Disagreed on last point again, had it not been the SSMs, the IAF had a very little to show.
SSMs were probably army's idea not air force

Same goes for PAF effort on 7th. IAF quickly adapted and knew what to do within a span of two days. And displayed it on 10th.

For argument sake, if you think that they were all SSMs then that is good for IAF. Since IAF ALCMs would be an element not assessed by your forces.

I guess CM400 was the only one used by your side. Luckily, IAF knew what to do with it even without prior data on it.

Each conflict throws new challenges. The next one could be quite different from this one.
 
Military needs to revolt against modi and bjp this is no way to treat your soldiers

Why do you think the CDS is admitting losses. It gives an opening to the opposition parties to speak up. Suddenly INC leaders are speaking up. Rahul Gandhi is aksing how many planes. The Telangana CM is asking how many planes. certain local mercenary for hire MLAs are admitting losses and calling IAF planners nalayak.

Indian establishment seems to have had a rude awakening and want a change in leadership as damage control.

Look at the video just posted above with the sparse crowds greeting chaiwala in Bihar.

This is not the case. You used brahmos to try to bomb our airbases.


Well ultimately we have to agree disagree here. I think IAF was very incompetent in this conflict and the Probably Army's decision to use SSMs kind of salvaged it.

But you are acting like you intercepted every missile of ours in may 10. this is not the case, your own military admitted to damages in 4 airbases, This sends a message you are not safe either

The IAF merely remained at fairly safe distances inside your own airspace as your CDS also said. That's not called learning what to do.

It will take years for IAF to learn - if they are willing - it wasn’t just J10s launching PL-15s only because they had more range. The Rafale with meteor still had an upper hand in my personal assessment, to be honest.

I never said all were SSMs but for most part. That too after 7th May. Hell we even have the wreckage of intercepted SCALPs. So Don't worry.

Launched only a couple of it. There is no proof that you intercepted it. Not even your spokeswoman in MEA brief claimed to have successfully intercepted it - i believe.

Nevertheless, the cruise missiles with terrain hugging capabilities would be an altogether different thing.
 
If iaf wanted they would not crash their aircraft.

IAF is not even pinch that PAF is

PAF has conducted operations everywhere in the world. IAF just learnt probably how to take off from a highway
No they still can't take off from a runway.
 
Jezzzz…


Even Sami knows PAF is # 1 … IAF … lol an orphan

India arrests 81 over pro-Pakistan social media posts​


Assam arrests ‘anti-nationals’ for sympathising with Pakistan, says Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma

Indian police have arrested scores of people for "sympathising" with Pakistan, a month after the worst conflict between the arch-rivals for decades, a top government official said Sunday.

The arrests took place in the northeastern state of Assam, where Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said "81 anti-nationals are now behind bars for sympathising with Pak".

Sarma, from Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Hindu nationalist ruling party, said in a statement "our systems are constantly tracking anti-national posts on social media and taking actions".

One of the persons was arrested after he posted a Pakistani flag on his Instagram, Assam police told AFP. No further details about other arrests were given.

There has been a wider clampdown on social media since an April 22 attack on tourists in Indian-administered Kashmir, the deadliest on civilians in the contested Muslim-majority territory in decades.
 
The decision making cycle and processing from Munir and the PA was lethargic and massively behind the curve behind what was actually happening over the days and what was required each day. That is not lost on anyone, and no one can argue against that. They seemed out of their depth in understanding what was unfolding in front of them. I am not sure how this can be fixed given the PA 'aggregates' all decision making to itself, and then proves to be so bad at absorbing and processing the information before making decisions.

It was strange to hear the the ISPR talking about responding at 'a time and place of our choosing' while India continued to ignore those statements and escalate upwards, taking the narrative and control away from the PA. India must have been surprised by the inaction in the decision making cycle within Pakistan and continued to escalate up the escalation ladder.

The lack of any response with long range CM's is shocking, and something that cannot be understood right now.

Pakistan was lucky, very that all the hard work the PAF has done over the decades has resulted in the PAF having absolute air supremacy over those days and neutralised a large portion of Operation Sindoor, otherwise this conflict would not have ended well for Pakistan. Kudos to the PAF, less so for the PA( i am not picking on the PA, just providing in my view, clinical objective feedback). Yes, the counter strikes finally ended it and the PA were part of that, but it really should have taken place much earlier.

I do feel that PAF 'exposed' a lot of hard won capability in the response to this operation for not much return imho because of 'restraints' imposed it or by itself on how it conducted it operations. Imagine the success that PAF could have gotten out of its hard work and operation doctrine and strategy on a more meaningful aerial exchange?
I think army was trying to focus on kashmir and not open a wider front like 65. And india was getting beaten in kashmir and desperately wanted to open a wider front like 65. India could not launch a big ground attack on a big city like lahore due to PAF air superiority. It kept on firing missiles to distract pak army from kashmir, and succeeded in the end.
