If runway counts as one, for an Air Force base then you know the answer. Many other building struck and shown as damaged had something that Paksiatn hasn’t even acknowledged. It is a doubt that the exact nature of damage would be accepted. Nothing wrong in it though.

There are always parallel operating surfaces. The damage to main operating surface does not mean the aircrafts wouldn't be able to take off. PAF regularly holds such operational readiness exercises where attacks on critical infrastructures of base are simulated and inspection team evaluates the performance of whole base as one team to get the operations going.

Nope, the hangars had been emptied in anticipation of attacks. The buildings, again, none of them anything critical. I can tell you after having talked to people in the airforce. A base has numerous buildings. Mostly including offices and setups with basic support roles.

Didn’t AD thwart the attacks from the opposite side? I would consider Indian AD performance much better in this regard.

If some of our basic munitions got through. I wouldn't say your AD performed exceptionally well.

Similarly, if our AD intercepted about half the highly sophisticated missiles. I wouldn't say a total bad performance.

Because the only thing that can be said of the war is what the IAF said- 'we have taken down PAF jets. the debris is on the other side, we will not comment further'.

That is what a professional force can say. But if you are interested in propoganda one can claim 2 or 6 or 20 jets.

There is one IAF attribution that I'm very convinced of-

EYRIE is a large slow flying jet. S 400 shot down a Saab eyrie at distance of 300+ KMS. If what went down was not an Eyrie then it would have been a civian plane and Pak would have gone to town with it.

So yes- IAF now holds the world record for the single longest distance air defence kill in history when it shot down an Eyrie at a ditance of 300+ KMS with an S 400.

France Air industry is bankrupt-

1) becuase it got a deal for Rafale M for 3.5 Billion last week
2) because it will definitely get a deal for additional 3.5 billion for Rafale M

3) becuase France will now definitely get an order for 100+ jets about 15 billion for remaining MRCA they have been lobbying for 15 years

All put togther this war has set up the frech air industry for another 20 years - both manufacture and spares.

You can be only 1 of 2 possible things. A retard or a 🤡. I’ll leave u to figure out which one.

I do wonder/worry if they are going to do some theatrics with Bangladesh in the near term to try and deflect failure with Pakistan to some level of success against Bangladesh ? Lets see ..

they need to first get the morale up....as it stands right now, even BD Airforce will terrorize them lol. Remember the Bangladeshis airforce may not have j10c but they do have the faith and belief in Allah swt. Allah helps those who believe in him.
Imagine if the BD pilots get some kills ! that would be icing on the cake.

Yes. That’s true and PAF does practice from highways too. But operations from these highways are highly degraded and not as efficient as from main bases.

As I assess the Indian effort was not degrade the runways completely but display its intent. If the aim was complete degradation then more points would have been hit. The aim was to show sub-metric strike capability far and wide which appears to have displayed well.

That is possible.
But I do have one observation in that regard.
At Nur Khan Base, the satellite pictures show that many aircraft are parked in the open apron before as well as after the attack. Was wondering why was it done. At least after the strike, some kind of dispersal should have been done.
