Pakistan-India Conflict 2025: News Updates and Discussion

As I mentioned earlier, anyone can access satellite images of Indian and Pakistani airbases for any date and time. I have personally reviewed the satellite imagery of all Indian airbases and found no signs of damage whatsoever. As for the Pakistani airbases, the extent of damage is so evident that it’s clearly visible even in low-resolution black-and-white satellite images.
Yes I'm sure you also spoke to that female IAF pilot as well not seen since 7th May. Lol
 
This aspect is done and dusted.

All those with even slightest belief in credibility have stopped talking about this aspect of this conflict.

Only fanboys/bhakts haven’t given up and they spin a new story everyday.

The Air to Air war went to PAF.
But the war of strikes on ground targets went to IAF.

The losses in the air for IAF were very big tactically and PAF deserves the credit for that.
I agree that the loss of fighter jets is a serious concern, and the Indian Air Force must ensure it can operate inside Pakistani airspace without such losses. However, the decision not to neutralize Pakistan’s air defense systems before the operation was not a tactical failure, but rather a limitation imposed by the rules of engagement. The Indian government aimed to target jihadi infrastructure while avoiding direct strikes on Pakistan’s military assets. That approach has now been reassessed. Valuable lessons have been learned from this conflict, and going forward, the Indian Air Force is expected to follow a more traditional strategy—first neutralizing enemy air defenses before carrying out offensive air operations.

You can yourself check the satellite images of all 26 Indian airbases that the Pakistan Air Force claims to have damaged — you won’t find even a scratch on any of them. In contrast, the damage to Pakistani airbases is clearly visible in satellite images and these images are all over international media.

I would still give the credit to PAF for visualising the entire plan and implementing it flawlessly.
There are no marks for we should have done this or that in a conflict. Mistakes were made - period.
The came out on top, in Air to Air, no two ways about it.

The element of surprise that was present during the Balakot airstrikes was missing in Operation Sindoor. You may recall that 12 Mirage 2000s, escorted by 4 Su-30MKIs, penetrated deep into Pakistani airspace, bombed Jabba Top, and returned safely. However, one positive aspect of Operation Sindoor is the availability of undeniable proof to assess the damage inflicted on Pakistani jihadi infrastructure and airbases — something that was lacking after the Balakot strike. Back then, only a blurry satellite image showing three holes in a building at Jabba Top was released, which wasn’t convincing enough.

Creating a surprise is in the hands of the one who starts a conflict. India has no reason to quote that as a reason to lose aircraft.
Strike on ground targets, yes salvaged some respect for them.

I agree with you that India’s planning for Operation Sindoor on the first day was lacking, which led to the loss of fighter jets. However, the mission’s objective was still achieved. I also agree with Pravin Sawhney’s view that India’s military-industrial complex must be brought on par with China’s in order to effectively counter Pakistan — because Pakistan can purchase any military hardware that China produces. So even if China isn’t directly involved in the conflict, India is essentially facing Chinese capabilities through Pakistan.
