Nilgiri , I remember you posted a very good response on PDF to Chinese Dragon and me on the Pakistani NWP particularly on their N bomb design and yield. Request you to counter what The Deterrent is posting.
For vstol & Falcon, I'm sure we can counter the Pakistanis without you crossing the red lines. Here's a Pakistani member baiting us. There's a whole host in PDF waiting for to see the result of a raid of their kabbadi team member, unless you want this forum to resemble PDF.
Don't wrack your brain & credibility. If your guys couldn't figure it in a few days after 27 th Feb, why do so now. We've claimed an F-16 down. You ought to be asking which Pilots were the casualties & call out our bluff there & then or wait till the Pentagon submits it's report to the Congress on the status of the F-16's which is sure to follow as day after night. The truth will be out then.
Personally speaking, it's a bit difficult to believe Pakistanis, who've been described by Hilary Clinton as pathological liars. Now, I'm not insinuating for a moment that that's true of all Pakistanis but there's the incident of the good German in WW -2 & to extend it to our scenario, let me cite an incident, I've cited before in various fora before - ab nauseum ab infinitum -
There was a plane crash/ crashlanding in the early to mid 90's in India. The pilot in question goofed up in indifferent weather , got the plane he commandeered in a difficult spot and after a great deal of difficulty which very nearly involved a crash , managed to extricate himself & the plane he was flying from a difficult situation and touch base ( Later reports stated he was drunk) .
I cite this as an analogy for the hold the PA exercises upon your society & wonder if they'd emulate the Indian pilot cited here.No surprises if they don't.
To cut a long story short, it was the advent of telejournalism and the reporter was right on the tarmac interviewing the survivors. A senior citizen - a gujarati kaka was asked, how did he feel to survive the crash. He replied in a mix of Gujarati Hindi - hume ko to pilot bhagwan jaisa chhe. Reporter - kyonki usne aapko bachaya? . Gujju kaka - phasaya bhi usne tha.
I can't find a better analogy for the PA & their mal effects on the Pakistani civilian population. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
