Look at the date. not new.Fox 3 - PAF Vipers fired at least 4-5 AMRAAMs against IAF Sukhois on 27 Feb. Lnchd fm 40k ft at Mach 1.5, the PAF got a bump in range of 15% to around 90km. The MKI's evaded all with anti-BVR man. The PAF says it fired only TWO. However 4 video grabs expose the PAF's lies again. pic.twitter.com/bjXGDCYJCI

More analysis from videos of people on ground. Combined with offical data from AWACS and Indian assets, PAF revealed quite a lot that day. Could have been a glorious day for India if not for unprepared and overwhelmed decision makers at top.
Then why didnt Sus fired back? lack of firing solution?
2 reasons! The 1st which everyone misses - We had 4 HiTech ac defending the valley against 16 + F16s. So important they hold ground as DCA CAP against further anticipated PAF action - which they did! 2nd was to conserve missiles and fire only when sure to get a kill within range!
