Doubt if tv commentary is an option, considering he himself made official statements that all ex-army/navy/af generals need a green from dgispr for TV appearances! Karma doing its 360 degree gig!! Besides, given the understated, but apparent friction with PA, that *large plot of land* may be less desirable than not getting disappeared or featuring in an innocuous car accident or mobbing on the streets of karachi.
Ek Ardh Sanyasi nay iski lay lee by god. Imagine if we had taken Pakistan head on in hybrid warfare earlier, we could have probably finished them off by now. Its just thanks to this forum and our members who strongly brought out all the bullshit pedalled by ISPR from Seeker head to blown up part of the missile center section to the Video from Mirpur showing Abhi turning behind the falling wreck of F-16. AND finally, many media channels picked up whatever we posted here to play it to Indian public.
I can proudly say this : Jai Javan, JAI KISAAN !! LOL

I have seen and read what you have written. I still maintain that AWACs were niether airborne at that time nor in station. They were asked to get airborne when the Take off by Mirage-3/5 was detected by Northern control radars and also the aerostat radars. One by one, IAF picked up formations getting airborne from other airbases and that gave IAF a very clear picture as to what can happen. The M2Ks were well south and SU-30MKIs were north of them in CAP. As these PAF aircraft combined in a single large strike formation widely spaced, The CAP was moved along the Indian airspace to the north. M2Ks were still to the south. AWACS arrived at the station only when the battle was fully on. You need to explain as to why the GCIOs were controlling the air battle if the AWACS were in station?Oh is this the same gentleman who had claimed that there was no AWACS in air? I recall a write up to the effect now.
Now?
The IAF’s Phalcon AWACS, which while not on station and not controlling the IAF vs PAF air situation — had adequate radar pick up on the aerial engagement unfolding via its powerful airborne AESA radar.
I fail to understand what is meant by 'while not on station and not controlling the IAF vs PAF air situation'! Does he mean to say that our AWACS are in air only to show AWACS in air? Or does he mean to say that the AWACS could observe the battle and not control it as no one was listening to the AWACS?
I wish someone would ask him, I would surely pass on the message to the crew who was controlling the air battle at that time.
If he expected the AWACS not to be 100 odd Kilometers away from LC, I do not know what to say.
Why do people write half baked information!!!
Perhaps they mean our AWACS were on joy ride....
