What Ukraine has been able to do against Russia with the help of NATO is something India cannot do against China even if it gets all of the cutting edge NATO military equipment. This is evident from India's recent skirmishes with Pakistan.

This new wave of information about attacks on India and fighter jets clearly shows that Pakistan has provided an off-ramp and a face-saving opportunity. However, unfortunately, Modi's comments didn't help the situation for India.

It seems that India, without having yet achieved the status of a global power, has already produced a class of neocons who are eager to go to war with everyone.

Why have all the Western publications, which were once prohibited from writing anything positive about China, suddenly begun to glorify Chinese tech? Something really bad is about to happen.

All the denials have dented the credibility of India. They should’ve taken it on the chin and accepted it was a miscalculation. This hyper aggressive ultra nationalist ideological driven narrative pushed by the current administration has not just crippled the bureaucrats of the administration but also the supporters of the administration. #IndiaPakistanConflict

After the recent showdown, if the US decides to alienate Pakistan in favor of India, it is likely that Pakistan will grow even closer to China. Any current leverage the US has will be lost, and it's important to note that India would face significant challenges in the event of a two-front war against both China and Pakistan.

🚨#BREAKING Pakistan’s DG ISPR claimed in the latest briefing that Russian-made S-400 batteries were successfully hit at two locations in India.

What the Indian establishment has done by lowering the threshold of war is something that will haunt them for decades to come. This includes blackouts, drones flying over civilian areas, and bombs dropping on major cities. For the longest time, the conflict was confined to the LOC, but now India has extended it to the metropolitan regions by targeting critical infrastructure in Pakistan. #PakistanIndianWar #ceasefire

Facts have not yet come out, but some of the evidence suggests that India may have knowingly or unknowingly struck a facility holding nuclear assets in Pakistan. If true, this would indicate that India, after suffering some losses, has pushed things to a dangerous level. #IndiaPakistan #IndiaPakistanWar2025

PAF’s operation proves smaller forces with smart tech and strategy can outshine bigger foes. It’s a testament to Pakistan’s resolve and innovation, cementing PAF’s place among the world’s elite air forces. #IndiaPakistan

Rafales are world-class, with Meteor missiles and advanced sensors. But PAF’s networked kill chain – AWACS, J-10Cs, and EW – outmaneuvered them. It’s like checkmating a grandmaster with a perfect strategy.🛩️ #AirWarfare

Rafale’s MICA (IR/RF) and Meteor missiles (150–200 km range) are formidable, but PAF’s EW jamming and silent launches likely delayed IAF’s situational awareness. Without AWACS data, Rafales relied on onboard sensors, which were jammed.

PAF’s integration of Chinese J-10Cs, PL-15E missiles, and Swedish Erieye AWACS created a networked kill chain. This allowed coordinated, long-range engagements while minimizing PAF’s electronic signature, outmaneuvering IAF’s response.

The Erieye AWACS likely provided real-time target data to J-10Cs via secure datalink, allowing PL-15E missiles to be fired without J-10C radar emissions. This “sensor-fusion kill” kept Rafales unaware until the missile’s terminal phase.

The Rafale’s RBE2 AESA radar and SPECTRA suite are top-tier, but its 4.5-gen design lacks the stealth of 5th-gen jets. If PAF’s AWACS-guided PL-15E missiles were launched silently, Rafales may have had minimal warning until the missile’s seeker activated.

Reports suggest PAF used advanced EW, possibly KG300G/KG600 jammers on J-10Cs, employing DRFM (Digital Radio Frequency Memory) to create false targets or overwhelm Rafale’s SPECTRA EW suite. This disrupted Rafale’s ability to lock onto PAF jets.

The Erieye’s ability to detect IAF Rafales at long range, even if they were using terrain masking, allowed PAF to cue J-10Cs without activating their onboard radars. This kept PAF jets “silent,” reducing their detectability by Rafale’s RBE2 radar.

Saab 2000 Erieye: PAF’s Saab 2000 Erieye AWACS, with its S-band AESA radar, provides 270° coverage and a 280-mile detection range. It can track low-flying targets and guide missiles, forming a “spotter-shooter” kill chain with J-10Cs.

The PL-15E, an export variant of China’s beyond-visual-range air-to-air missile (BVRAAM), has a 145 km range, dual-pulse motor (Mach 5+ speed), and an AESA radar seeker for terminal homing. Its datalink allows mid-course guidance, enhancing accuracy.

PAF’s J-10C, is equipped with an AESA (Active Electronically Scanned Array) radar, likely the KLJ-10 variant. This radar offers superior target detection and tracking at ranges exceeding 145 km, matching the PL-15E’s reach.
