Pakistan-India Conflict 2025: News Updates and Discussion

Capability wise most drones have caught up with Bayraktar TB2, but what is interesting is the effect the reputation that Bayraktar has on people as seen here.

Usage especially who we will employ, RAFALE is far ahead of J-10 C but implantation and kill chain make the difference.

Not in every domain. J10 is a serious capability upgrade for PAF. Only block 3 comes close.

Agreed but if you compare with RAFALE and so called their software system and missiles J10 could easily on papers some what inferior to so called European tech.

@Oscar I noticed you have mentioned weather phenomenon multiple times in the same context with S-400s.........why is this an issue?

I mean, a modern AD system would have radars capable enough to differentiate between weather phenomenon and actual returns, no? Especially the high GHz range they operate at?

On a related note.

Bad weather aborted Op Sindoor strike on Skardu: Ex-CDS Chauhan​

Giving details, he said Pakistan reached out to India at around 10 am on May 10 for talks. It was around this time that the IAF sought clearance to strike the Sargodha air base. “The Air Chief asked me whether we should strike Sargodha. I said, ‘Go ahead’. I said, ‘Please identify two more targets’. So one of the targets he identified was Skardu,” the former CDS said.

And how can they will guide 1000 km BVR to its target? unless it will has some kind of satellite terminal guidance which is currently not feasible with current technology or near future technology unless some kind of miracle/ breakthrough will come online in near or far future, you can't change the physical prosperities of the Earth with technologies ever

This is my point, you are going on about "current technologies", Chinese out of nowhere almosty came out with DeepMind and 6th Gen planes.

Lets wait and see what happens in next 10 years, especially now with the help of AI

Flight characteristics - many common startup, flight and emergency procedures

So seems like a lot of the actual weapons and tactics work will be ff loaded to the operational squadrons then right? (BVR fighting, Sniper pod, air to ground, recce training etc)
