Yeah my team has been doing air raid drills all week in hydrabad and guragram. I feel so bad for them, it's pretty scary situation with what Pakistan is doing in retaliation for India striking some terrorist.


If someone was to shoot nine missiles into the US I think we'd be pretty ticked off too.

Both govts mess around with supporting insurgencies in each other's country.

Neither is innocent.

This is almost a completely incorrect summation of the situation. The Pakistani government was installed by Biden by overthrowing an elected government (think Ukraine 2014). The current govt has in many ways stopped China's attempt at gaining access to the Arabian sea port of Gwadar. So not really China's tool any more.


Interesting perspective. You didn’t address whether you think China benefits from Pakistan shooting down Indian fighter jets using Chinese technology.

Me thinks you are misreading the intentions of Biden and his views towards China. His family has made millions off the Chinese government

125 fighter jet dogfight


That would be awesome to see, all we had in our area of Afghanistan were the A10s and they were a sight to see and hear. I couldn't imagine a dogfight with that many aircraft in modern times

F22s would have shot them all down with no losses. Provided we sent enough of them with 125 missiles between them.

Bingo. China is behind this. Because of the trade realignment.

Pakistan has religious zealots that murder for religious beliefs


It was that line of thinking that made it such that we didn't finish the job in Afghanistan. Yes, there are religious zealots there but for the most part it's a drug war disguised as a religious war. We always went after the growers without attacking the drug network

Odds that India nukes the 3GD?

100% Correct. Imran Khan is sitting in prison after the CIA coup. Alot of these posters are not very sophisticated. All they know is what they hear on MSM, details and nuances escape them. They are not willing to educate themselves and do research. They think Twitter is the devil

Of-course it does.

But that wasn't a known outcome.

By all accounts, India had the upper hand with the Rafale.

What's even more impressive is that India had twice as many planes in the dogfight. So definitely some superior equipment (or personnel) on the Pakistani side.

Twitter (X) can be the devil... so much junk on it, but also lots of great stuff. Just have to sift through it.

There have been very few actual "dogfights" since the Vietnam War. The vast majority of air to air "kills" have been intercept kills. Most notably the last known US air to air defeat was an intercept kill of a UNS hornet from VFA 81 on the first night of the gulf war from a mig 25.
