Operation Sindoor: India Strikes Terroist Camps Inside Pakitsan

jokes aside - paks are not stupid.

This shows what many people were guessing. There is a severe fissure in Pak leadership. The faction that okayed the ceasefire has been sidelined.

We should wholeheartedly thank that faction which gave a kick on the butt to our political leadership for accepting the ceasefire and immediately announcing it in the press conference ....if one more time such ceasefire drama is announced without achieving the objective Modi and team will definitely face massive backlash from their own supporters

Not only a backlash but a serious loss of decisive leadership image that they have built.

The Rafale RCS is better without Pylon

My speculation - tell me if this is right

a) Rafale were given task of dropping close to 40 tonns of munitions on highly active area with enemy patrol and SAMs
b) They had a big load of A2G and low load of A2A
c) By the time they aligned and launched their A2G for ground attack the enemies got the window to loack and launch their a2A

This might have brought down a jet .....I don't know if a jet was downed but just speculating.

Two of the press conferences today denied many of the Pakistani claims. Now the question is, what did they not deny?
How does that matter? Was our goal/objective net as decided by political leadership? That's what matters in Republic of India.

One more thing to notice here is that SEAD wasn't an option here.... So we were on the Backfoot from the very start.
 
Rafale is swing role or as French call it omni role aircraft. Attacking an air target is essentially Air superiority role. Yes, Rafale can do that very very well, especially with meteor. It has great range and terminal kinetic charecters. Its a question of how the A/C is configured during that mission.

It is, also a great A2G aircraft. So in some roles it carries A2G weapons. In that config it does not make a good air superiority fighter.

Also, there is no information if J10 has GaN AESA. Lastly we do not know what transpired that night.
So essentially the rafale which (potentially) got shot down was likely in ground strike mode only and not air to air? If so we need to unleash the air to air beast now that Pak has violated ceasefire.
Lol their news media was like "endian attack failed janab" even for Noor Khan air base which was literally on fire and being shown by their media while they said it 🤣

Strike package is always covered by air-to-air configured jets. Wait for more details to come out before reaching any conclusion.
