Pakistan Air Force | News & Discussions

Hope all the C2 centre nodes are fully redundant and in secret hidden/ camouflaged/underground locations. Indians will be looking to target them as they did the one at Nur Khan airbase.
 
What is the tail number of the Rafale jet that was assigned to Shivangi Singh ?
 
A lot of this is technically already discussed on PDF - more so. While the PAF’s kill confirmation mechanism from an electronic perspective is thorough it leaves a big loophole in terms of “lost radar track”.

Now, not saying there is some magical trick to knowing otherwise but without photographic evidence or otherwise you are saying these are strong claims.

The MKi from 2019 for e.g is a strong claim even though certain “imagery” shared among PAF personnel seems to indicate they have proof from that angle as well.

Next, as far as providing serial numbers goes it’s from OSINT and potentially existing HUMINT sources it’s an ok approach except that serial numbers can be changed and Dassault will have no qualms about doing the same on their end to save face because they have two massive deals in play.

The claim regarding Meteor is fairly interesting - so is Derby. Derby I understand because IAF stock of R-77s is pretty useless since the Amraams and SD-10s came in but now even they’re outranged. But the meteor aspect goes against all Indian fanboy claims that it wasn’t operational and also(in an ironic way) paints the IAF not as stupid as they made it sound.


Last- The S-400 is still unproven and mostly conjecture. However, it was suppressed and inoperative for the remainder of the conflict which was the objective of SEAD.

At the end the article reads biased - but then PAF extends Alan access which makes even veterans feel left out.

People should go out and also buy a copy of the magazine, partly to thank AFM for the article, but mostly cause it is a good piece of history you can refer back to in the future.

The real "new" news from this is
- There was also a Rafale that was shot down over Srinagar, making 4 actual shootdowns of Rafales( prior to this, it was thought it was a Rafale that landed but was written off and claimed as a shoot down).
- There are 4 more Rafales that also took hits, and are in various states of "repair".

No reference to any shoot downs by Pakistan's IADS in this article. There does seem to be a 'gap' in the overall reporting of the event it seems.

Yes
Those claiming inconsistency or incoherence in the article need to buy the magazine. This is edited and formatted for that layout
 
Could the radar the PAF is talking about be this THD-1955/BEL-upgraded THD-2.0 radar at Barnala? This is the only radar-ish typa site I could locate on Google Earth near Barnala.

Coordinates: 30°25'27.4"N 75°33'16.5"E

Edit- I wonder if the PAF was actually talking about a cyber attack/EW attack (jamming and spoofing) on the radar and Alan Warnes again misheard it and literally wrote 'struck' in a physical attack manner/hard kill lol since the damage would have been quite visible in a sat image and yet we have none
