With such capabilities even a section of a platoon, under the command of an NCO, in the PA can wreck havoc on Bharat's AD, artillery, armored, command centers etc. while having a 360 degrees of situational awareness spanning over a 200km radius. Can you imagine the intensity of the assymetric warfare via non-contact robotic means? When Pakistan's cobras are led by a lion the Bharati elephants will be dead inside their ditches.....

It's a damn clear and present message to the IAF. I've to admire the vision, mission, and guts of the PAF in adapting to game changing technologies at a lightning speed. It's no small feat to shrug off the institutional lethargy, caution, and bureaucracy to venturing into unknown waters. Compare it to the timid state of the 10x more resourceful IAF: they still can't venture out of sending Mig-21s for aggressive A2A missions inside the Pak airspace. As for getting into the Chinese airspace, even after recently losing 4K km2 of land, it's not even in the thought processes of the IAF high command.....

Fortune favors the brave....

Pakistan has always been great at aquisation. But I think institutional lethargy will come into play when the time comes to deploy these assets in combat. I mean on paper we have enough combat drones to conduct hundreds of airstrikes in a single day with them, but when was the last time we saw drone strike on militants by any MALE UCAV? (IMO conducting and publishing airstrikes against TTP/BLA should be a norm). Even at 'conventional' front, deliberately missing ground targets like the ammunition depot during Swift Retort is another example.

As for 02-27, targeting a Bharati military installation, and that too at the presence of her top military officials there, was in fact an act of war (see the YouTube video). It was a pro quid quo ops with some spices. The PAF wasn't deterred.....

As for freely using UAVs on the Taliban, I think the Pak Deep State had wanted to give a "benefit of doubt" to them. Moreover, Afganistan is no easy ball game at a neighborhood park. She's a geo-strategic prime real-estate with Super Powers at its stake holders. So, caution is needed. Now that a top US commander has publicly stated that the time for Taliban may be over, it's the time to go for the game (see my post below)....
