The loss of aircraft was known on day one and everyone knew about it. It was the question of accepting it officially.Agreed.
Can we agree that early on..., India did not accept losing any Jets either, even though in less than 48hrs wreckage of IAF was found scattered all over India.
How can you come to a conclusion that "Pakistan Strikes didn't make much of a mark."
Until your CDS had brought up losing jets in Singapore, there was no official confirmation.
I believe we made a compelling case of taking out 02 of your S-400's. Now wanting to believe that narrative is entirely up to you. Who is to say what all may be revealed in the not-so-distant future.
There is no BDA to prove any damage whatsoever. MizarVision, a Chinese service provider has released pictures of your bases but not of India. ISPR must have obtained these and decided not to release them since there was nothing to show. Same ISPR and AVM had given a fantastic presentation with proof on shooting down IAF aircraft. Keeping quiet about success of ground strike was due to obvious reasons.How can you come to a conclusion that "Pakistan Strikes didn't make much of a mark."
There is no proof at all of success of that strike either. Even the ISPR didn’t push through about success of that attack. People are claiming tyre tracks as seen in satellite pictures, as proof of success of that strike.I believe we made a compelling case of taking out 02 of your S-400's.
We ain't getting no watered down version..... it's not even debatable.J-31 is a water down version of J-35A, I hope we will get the full version.
by the same logic, no AWACS were down on the PAF side, by your missile attacks, let alone claims made after more than 23 days!The loss of aircraft was known on day one and everyone knew about it. It was the question of accepting it officially.
In India, military follows the instructions of political bosses. Any acceptance of those losses would have looked bad for them at that stage, hence the denial. They also knew that it can’t be hidden forever. Only question was when to reveal it.
They needed a solid narrative before that. And that was causing adequate damage that side. That must have prompted full fledged drone strikes to degrade your radars and AD and then launch Brahmos all across to gain eyeballs. The idea to strike more number of bases with little damage then a few with debilitating damage was probably to signal repercussions if any more escalation takes place. This also looked good for narrative building - we can strike wherever we want.

S400 is a highly mobile system and also a very high value target. There is no chance that IAF would keep them deployed at any place for more than least possible time. Tyre marks are no indication of a successful attack. Some kind of crater and damaged equipment is the only way to prove it. CM400 carries more than 200KG of warhead and strikes at very high speed. There is bound to be massive blast and crater that can be picked up by satellites. Till that is proven, that strike can’t be called a success.
Oh no..., we never said 'Damaged'. Heaven forbid. Good Lord, No.S-400 was not damaged.
?!!That would be nice.

You are right but as I said before we made a bad decision which saved your beloved IAF.@veeru
Good point.
The IAF had been grounded.
S 400 had been destroyed.
If I had been the CAS of PAF, I would have been flying my jets all over Northern India. And accepted ceasefire only after rubbing it in for a day or 2.

Bro no need to reply to every Indian who turns up on PDF straight from their scheming call centres.Oh no..., we never said 'Damaged'. Heaven forbid. Good Lord, No.
Naw..., we annihilated it. Look closely - & you'll possibly find a CM-400AKG stuck up an S-400 in Udhampur.
Kinda like how PL-15s' were up some Rafales, an Su-30MKi, a Mirage & a MiG-29. Tell me, what do you clowns do for an ENCORE? TEJAs?!!
2 days back..., Indians all of a sudden woke up from their slumber after their CDS f#*ked up in Singapore & came up with - we shot down 6 Jets of PAF (and an AWAC). Acha. Proof... Nothing. Nada. Zilch. Lund.
Q. What kind of Missiles were used to shoot them down?
Indians: Ehhh, we'll get back to you on that after we descide which jet & wgich pilot shot them down.
Indians say bus batey choudwa lo. Its probably the reason why they're the joke 'round the Globe right now.

Very aptly put across.But Pakistan couldn't publicly say that because the narrative would become 'Oh, so you are trading lives of 30+ Pakistani civilians for some Indian jets'. That was a hard sell and if you look into the posts between May 7 and May 10 in the first version of this thread on PDF then you'd see that most Pakistanis wanted to 'punish' India; there were very few exceptions to that narrative including me.
Did I not respond to this b.s. theory of yours yesterday.Simple common-sense says if Pakistan was sure of damaging Indian S-400 AD battery, It would not have gone for a ceasefire on the same day.

bhai aap kahan is brain dead nations se logic expect ker rahe hai ? If you try you can teach a jackass ABCD but expecting logic from a P@jeet is impossible.As per Indians HQ9 failed - But still we have pictures and videos of Scalp and Brahmos getting destroyed before hitting the target
As per Indians S400 100% succeeded - But still we are yet to see any picture or video of confirm successful interception of Fatah 1 or CM400 AKG
