Pakistan-India Conflict 2025: News Updates and Discussion

I agree with many points.

In my view, if a country has a decent fleet of 4th-generation fighter jets backed by strong support systems like AWACS and electronic warfare (EW), it can maintain air control and defend its own territory effectively. That’s what the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) is doing well, especially with Chinese support and new tech integration.

However, the situation changes when operations move into hostile airspace. Support systems like AWACS and EW assets are more vulnerable and they can't cross the border and typically operate within own airspace and can support maximum approx 100 km range effectively inside the hostile airspace. Once beyond that, their effectiveness drops—and that’s where Pakistan can faces challenges.

India seems to be preparing for this scenario by focusing on two key strategies:

Missile Development – India is building both short- and long-range missile capabilities. Given Pakistan’s geography, IAF may not even need to cross the border in a future conflict.

Air Defence Systems – Knowing that Pakistan could adopt similar tactics, India is investing heavily in air defense to intercept missiles and UAVs before they hit critical targets.

Pakistan’s geography limits its options. Unless it builds strong underground facilities or develops a robust air defense network—like Israel’s or alternatively if can moved 2-3 airbases in Afghanistan—it will remain at a disadvantage. Israel is small, but its layered defense systems are a strong model.

In a full-scale war, fighter jets may play a limited role. Both sides would likely avoid entering each other’s airspace and instead rely on standoff weapons like missiles and drones. The real battle would focus on:

1. Neutralizing enemy air defenses
2. Defending key military and civilian infrastructure and destroying other.
3. Intercepting incoming missile strikes effectively

Ground warfare would still occur, but it would likely be more destructive and cost more lives.

So, I truly hope a full-scale war never happens between India and Pakistan.
This is where offensive approach has to be taken & implemented, Pakistan military & its 3 arms (Navy, Air, army) have all maintained a quid pro quo stance, in essence tit for tat.

This has to change into a proactive & albeit offensive stance, where you inflict a more damaging blow in conventional theatre to stop further enemy aggression.

If you have a fairly decent conventional might the enemy is forced to come on the table for talks. We know this from Israel vs Iran & America vs Iran scenario.

Even though the Iranians are lacking good air force they have mitigated this issue by building up a fairly powerful conventional missile force, which can give Americans or Israelis a run for their money.

IMHO the next stage for Pakistan is better offensive conventional punch.
 
i think they've got a small whiff of what Pakistan has, and didn't use yet. Hence they think the SAMs would be reasonable to help them to prevent Pakistan from using hidden tech they don't know about. DG ISPR and other retired military men have spoken on media that they dont even know what we have......
So they're spooked and now panic buying SAMs as they will use that to strike blows on our military and civilians.

Pakistan must prepare and be active, and monitor everything. The gangus will attempt as soon as they're armed and ready.....

Seems Ghazwa e Hind full battle about to start. May Allah SWT always protect Pakistan and shower his blessings. I also sincerely hope our brothers in BD can procure some goodies and become a strong force soon so enemy can have sleepless nights on both of their border sides. InshAllah
In armed forces not even a in service officer knows what they have got in other bases or departments. its called confidentiality
 
India’s priority now should be to accelerate technological upgrades for the IAF — that’s the missing piece. That's the most serious concern that should be for Indian planners.

"Vedic literature has let humanity discover a high level of science, including aviation. Thus, learning deepens itself in the ancient texts for uncovering the advanced knowledge regarding aeroplanes, the varieties discussed, their creating principles, and the flow of technology in the aviation sector during the four Yugas: Satya, Tretā, Dvāpara, and Kali Yuga. By investigating these features, we hope to transcend the modern perspective on Vedic science that is only mythological and emphasizes its deep scientific insight."

All the best!

Every single life matters. A country that picks and chooses whose life is worth saving has already lost the moral ground. Most serious nations don’t operate like that — and neither should anyone.

Are we referring to india in this sentence?

In real war, saving lives isn’t about cost. If you're worried about the price tag, you're not ready to fight — and definitely not ready to win.

Wars are not fought to save lives, wars are fought to kill and result in mayhem, destruction and loss of many lives.

If you are worried about loosing your life then do not falsely blame others, attack their sovereignty, kill their civilians and then go on full retard mode against your own people and rest of the world.

indian mind romanticizes with war but has no understanding of what it actually means and looks like (for them). It amazes me that this mind doesn't expect retaliation and consequences, and when their bubble is burst they just go haywire.
 
@Developereo seems my hunch was correct


They are spending big.

The upper limit of the emergency procurement cost is ₹24,000 crore.

It seems they burned through that much in a mere two days. I'm sure more will be authorized. I truly wonder what other damage was done for them to go on a rush shopping spree.
