We also need to work on variable thrust solid motor missiles.
Astra mk2 is fine for pakistan but not for china
And For economic loss,
-> in any conflict, a good leader is ready to loose temporarily if it can defeat its enemy and get a much better deal
->> Economic loss without militry loss by a big country(i) against another(c) is not going to work, as the country C will then try to fully defeat the country I qnd them get favourable deal and will easily cover every penny it spend/loose due to war
So no , Economic blocked of china is not going to work if we can not defeat them, as the profit defeat a large country far exceeded the temporary looses china will have to face during the war
What do you mean by defeating the adversary ? Is it absolute defeat by overpowering in long term ? Or, A short-term moral victory over the adversary by putting some sudden loss on them ?
Look , we've to strengthen ourselves along with acknowledging the ground reality. An absolute victory by fully over powering the bigger adversary in long term is not inside the capability envelope for us atleast for next 25 to 30 years.
But, we can match or, even exceed them ( if we want ) in technological & strategic upper hand.
As of now , we've to treat our western adversary just as the inferior western extension of our bigger adversary. So, potentially we've only one adversary to counter in next decades, not two.
Following are the major goals for us to achieve in near future :
(1) We've to create an undisputed continuous real-time accurate surveillance system on our adversary independently through a robust indigenous navigation system,
(2) Strengthening our capabilities around the strategic choke points of our adversary in geo-political domain,
(3) Independent , indigenous, domestic connectivity (internet) far from ANY FOREIGN ACCESS (not even for our strategic allies ) and domestic safe data protection system,
(4) Ensuring Energy security through all means possible (keeping in mind any future action from adversary),
(5) Investing more on strategic assets ( SSN, SSBN, stealth aerial systems, hypersonic systems, quantum communication, high-end indigenous electronics ecosystem , next gen powerplant development) and proper protection of them from intelligence of Adversary,
(6) Now in active military domain we've to upscale the use of automation and robotics,
(7) After all these, we need to establish RANGE- DENIAL & Aerial superiority with better missile systems & unmanned systems, because we know it'll be difficult to match the bigger adversary in numbers for atleast next 25 - 30 years. Though we need to achieve minimum capability envelope of 65 squadrons through Tejas Mk2 & AMCA.
Unfortunately, we've some internal foreign agents sitting in different domains trying to prevent such progress through various means. But fortunately, with internet , social media and availability of more datas we can detect and understand these moles easily now than previous.
The price that our adversary should pay for putting any offensive ( either, 'ACTIVE' through direct or, indirect military actions OR, 'PASSIVE' through information warfare/ sanctions) action should be accordingly, even reaching the limit of destruction, destabilization and division of the adversary's homeland & strategic assets.
