Line of Actual Control (LAC) : India & Tibet Border Updates

The exact opposite has happened. Modi didn't build infra at the border without considering Chinese belligerence.
Of course, that's the biggest fear. Why do you think Kadi Ninda ran to Moscow? These people have some expired stock only, so to get more now they need Russia to manufacture for them.
If the Chinese are getting triggered by other countries political statement then they should already be at war with the US and Europe , they mention HK , Taiwan like every day
@vstol Jockey How effective will IAF be in mountainous region? For ground attack operations and CAS?
I really hope that is the case. Though our posture and deployment leaves much doubt.
None of those countries have a shared border with the region CPEC passes through nor are any of those countries shelling PoK everyday.
We made that damn statute for 430 million dollars. Part of it paid to China.
If we had bought 145 more M777 it would have costed us some 380 million dollars more (2900 Cr purchase for our last order). Another 50 million for a decent stock of ammo. 430 millions well spent. But no! We had to make that damn statue.

Cannot be. You can clearly see trucks etc. moving from Chinese side. Its a Chinese structure.
Those fortifications in PT14 also have machine gun positions and walls. Don't think for a second that PLA won't open fire in case of an assault.
No. The fight is for the highway. We will side step and go past PLA fortifications and hit them in deep interior. We have such forces with us while PLA does not have.
Do you know of something called P8I. They are capable of firing LACM and are a direct counter to PLAAF bombers. We can hit PLAN in SCS from India mainland with cordinates of target being provided by satellites of QUAD.
I expect IAF to be very effective in CAS and less effective in A2A combat. I had posted about the detection advantage IAF has over PLAAF in Ladakh.
Please look at the image again, the defence wall/fortification is facing India and on many structures no wall facing China.
Will IA make structures that are open from Chinese side and closed from Indian side?
Also see again the structures run along like string into Chinese side and you can see even vehicles coming from Chinese side.
So unless Indian Army built it with Chinese raw material and for China I don't know how this claim make sense.
But then he is leading defense analyst and I am just anonymous internet user, he will have better sources.

Folks, wall are meant to protect OUR soldiers and not vice versa. Likes of Gokhle need to get their basic understanding right.
self fulfilling posts going on circle jerk over here.
one posts "this is what may be happening"
the other posts "yes that is confirmed"
what was the basis of "we dont have ammunition for even one day" your excellency @Saaho?
Its just simple earthworks that they are building. But, it will be more difficult for IA to vacate them in hand to hand combat.. assuming they are chinese fortifications
No.. the government has gone on record saying that they have enough ammo for 10 days of intense war.. but yes.. if we have to fight longer, then, we need replenishment
I am not the only one making these allegations. Former IA Generals and Majors have also asked this question : Whats the need for emergency purchase if we have enough stock. There were articles telling low levels of critical ammunition. Also given the massive Chinese build up on multiple fronts, the rate of consumption will be HIGH. Lets hope we don't have simultaneous attack from Pakistan and irritation from Nepal.
Whatever hell happens, after this incidence, India should lay claim on madheshi lands and capture it with a popular uprising. Time to oli and his cohort to know their real worth.
