Back to the topic, I can only say that it is India's tragedy that the IAF holds joint military exercises with countless countries, but no country tells them what modern air combat is like.
They thought that by buying a few expensive foreign trade fighters from France, they could suppress the Chinese Air Force.
But have they seen dogfights between 4.5 generation aircraft? No.
Have they seen aerial offensive operations accompanied by EA-18G and EC-37? No.
Have they seen the revolutionary impact that the fifth-generation aircraft will bring to air combat? No
But they are still arrogant and think that the PLAAF is a group of cowards with no actual combat experience.
IAF is the great knight of the sky,
But, sorry, times have changed.
