Air Battle over Kashmir : MiG-21 Bison shoots down F-16

When his name initially came up as the name of the dead pilot, the folks at f16.net claimed that he had gone to US for training. If he's confirmed to be alive then that statement must be true.
Yeah they claimed lot of things, they are still claiming, claimed so much that they don't even remember what have they claimed so far so all that "MUST" be true?
 
I only said if he's confirmed to be alive. I haven't seen him yet. Only older photos and that video where they were interviewing sherdil squadron
Internet is full of stupid claims and things don't believe everything you read here or anywhere else. F16.net doesn't automatically makes a user pilot and decision maker, this pilot thing was stupid to begin with. Some facebook account posted some names and people started making things.

IAF never claimed any pilot kill or anything, thanks to Vstol who grabbed those names with whatever he got and others followed the trend and this keeps on getting mention.

One F16 shot down, that's all IAF said and that's what it is. What happened to pilot we dont know, Gafoor slipped in some info which costed him his promotion. Few weeks ago PAF officially named pilots conveniently hiding Second pilot in F16B. We don't know what happened to him, is he dead or recovering or ran away from PAF or whatever, doesn't matter.

If you start claiming with names that he is killed he is not you will get egg on your face. I asked everyone not to fall for names in starting and never got myself into any such discussion, lets stick to what we actually know than discussing social media "sources" as established facts.
 
I know.....But ....

The actual fin is gigantic.

You can see that the rudder itself is bigger than a full grown man.

As for the Pakistanis, they celebrate their 1965 loss as a national holiday, so dunno what you're expecting. ;)

Wasn't Nirmala sitharaman claiming to know the fate of the pilot shot down? Idk I think there was a video. And about names I don't believe shit ever since the Shahzad ud din debacle.
Btw @Falcon also said that 2 pilots were shot down and at least one died. He didn't say so with 💯% certainty however.
 
Thank goodness we did not have Teja flying that day, other wise ... bohot bezti hoti

PAF made a Terrible mistake by Firing Amraams from inside POK at Su 30

This was the Only thing that was Not Anticipated by IAF

But we didnt suffer any loss due to this
And understood the Enemy psyche

On the contrary they have shown all their Cards

Releasing those Bombs from Stand off Ranges was acceptable

That is why I say instead of POK invasion
We should Unleash IAF in an all out war

There will be loses on Indian side as well, if we think IAF will remain invincible that will be naive. Military can't target their all assets on ground yes they can paralize the assets by cutting fuel supply and communication. Unless until their assess are airborne you cant knock them. And when that engagement happens loss would happen on Indian side as well. But Because India has numbers India can manage.

But point is that will happen so that in POJK Pakistan's hold is diminished otherwise there is no need to even have a skirmish if territory is kept aside.
 
after watching part 2 of paf show,i am completely satisfied with our performance.there were 9 targets,orders was for just two.paf created bufferzone in indian kasmir for some minutes and returned back and this is why iaf crossed loc.even abhinandan assumed f-16 missile is shown in the complete version of program.now i completely believe our narrative.the wreckage showed the missile which supposedly hit f-16.
this was just one air battle and we should better focus on iaf.i am expecting balakot video from iaf.

and there is no shahzaz ud din.that enigma is completely unsolved.
