And the crown, it weighs heavy!
However, the burden depends upon the objective. I think the objective is to scare Pakistan away for 6-7 more years meanwhile build a strategic barrier to their activities : control over flow of Indus water.

Demonstrated the escalation ladder in 2019 ? Let me guess - that Qatl ki Raat bluff where the overarching narrative is if Abhinandan didn't screw up we'd have gone in for the kill which Leaderji grabbed with both arms giving him an excuse to de escalate & leave the Pakistanis to claim victory - a fact myself and a few others brought out in debates with Hellfire that not responding to Operation Swift Fart would prove expensive in the long run .
Right enough the Chinese came calling a year later in Galwan & the Paxtanis kept probing with minor casualties in the Valley keeping the pot boiling till they decided to go in for the kill. Incidentally guess who was the ISI chief when Pulwama was undertaken.

Resident Story Teller.
I think bluff ended even earlier when they declared it an "intelligence driven operation" and "surgical strike" and declared it over after our mirages were back. It was clear that India was doing just bare minimal there.
PAF and Pakistan Army are running around ; Deploying their assets
We must wait and observe their deployments

Interestingly, Indian side is very quite... either no troop movement is happening or ... we have become really good at hiding it in media or otherwise.
Bravo ! Brilliant summation of events - past , present & future. Wish I penned that.
Also wish cognitively impaired you know who reads this , pins it on his wall & go thru it daily on tips of how to construct an argument instead of being a street side brawler then coming up with gems like I deliberately was contrarian.
Thumb rule - contrarians are usually born feet first . Of course that's not the only qualification. Paddy's born feet first too. But he has a lot less going for him
Ours are exercising or preparing for forthcoming exercises. Whether it is really the case or is a ruse is anyone's guess.
To be very honest, keeping others guessing is not a bad trait and to fool your enemies first you need to learn to fool your friends and family. So I am not complaining about that part.
My bigger issue is their history. That tells us that anything government in India always creeks when moving.
Yes , and that's where you actually need firmware or source code access, which Pakistan has with Chinese weapons in use
Link 17 took many years to develop and things you said here are baked in.
The authentication keys you are talking about are generated separately, hence the involvement of a ground station an intermediate.
That's all I know, as information publicly available is scarce.
You can make of it whatever you want, and I like the technical points you raised.
Now Let us analyze your data putting aside the arguments of Chinese Radar Quality.
Radar Cross section of Rafale 0.5 metes. Add 1 sq meter for weapons. It is 1.5 Sq meter. Assuming 1800 TR modules of Chinese plane, lets us see its range.
Assuming that Rafale with 1000 TR module can detect a target of 1 Sq meter from 120 K.M. So it can detect Chinese plane of say 4 Sq Meter (Most Conservative figure) from =120(4/1)^(1/4) K.M. of distance. This turns out to be 170 k.m.
Now chinese Radar with 1.8 times more Power has Detect 1 Sq, meter of target from (1.8/1)^0.25= 120X1.157X1.10=154 K.M.
This is inspite of giving lots of assumption in the favor of Chinese Plane. With Metero and Superior Spectra like EW, rafale will have far superior kill ratio in BVR.
So far as MWF is concern, Figure for detection shall come down to 140 k.m with 1.1 Sq Meter target. MWF can detect Chinese plane from 163 K.M. In this case MWF will have 23 K.M. First seen advantage. MWF will need Astra Mk2 to take advantage of its higher detection range.
BREAKING NEWS: Trump tells India, if you destroy Pakistan you will have to pay for its debts..
As if undestroyed Pakistan is going to pay the debt? In fact Trump should ask India to destroy Pakistan so that it doesn't ask for more debt.
Can anyone suggest good source for latest and real time update related to military(any telegram channel, twitter etc). Which source do you trust apart from media.
I'm not talking about Link 17, the connection between Erieye and the JF-17. I'm talking about Erieye's ability to provide initial tracking data followed by mid-course updates to the PL-15, so the connection between Erieye and PL-15.
For example, the Erieye's radar output needs to be compatible with the PL-15's data link protocol. This is possible for the PL-15E (can be shared if necessary), but not for the PL-15 (proprietary). Another hurdle is the Erieye's targeting data should be processed by JF-17's fire control system. So the fire control can be transferred from Erieye to the PL-15. This is also possible for the PL-15E, not the PL-15.
And when both these hurdles are crossed, the JF-17 will use the Erieye data to communicate with the PL-15E, so the JF-17 acts as a relay. There's no direct comm link between the Erieye and PL-15E.
In any case, transferring the PL-15 with the same data link and FCS terminal as what PLAAF use will make it incompatible with the JF-17 and J-10CP, so it's useless to the PAF.
PAFji and SAABji made their own data link. And PAF has access to targeting data from Erieye, which they can convert into fire control for the missile. And the missile carries NATO compatible hardware for export so PAF on its own can feed the fire control data into the missile and with control over the data link, they can provide mid-course updates too. So PL-15E is fine. There is no need for direct communication between the Erieye and JF-17 in this case.
Of course, it's everything as you say for the PL-15.
And yeah, with AMRAAM and F-16 they have no control over the missile or the fighter in any capacity, so they can't do anything there.
Meteor can be integrated into MKI without any Russian involvement, MBDA are just being pricks, the Israelis had no problems. We have full control over the radar and comm system. All the Meteor needs is comm compatibility with our Indo-Israeli data link, easy-peasy, and a modified software module for using the Bars fire control along with RBE2 and Uttam.
Ye lo. List of their storage facilities, with grid stations.
The usual nonsense from Ignorants.
Thinks stopgap means M2000, when it actually means 40 more Rafales.
The rest, wow. He tries to clutch on to anything he can after soundly being beaten the very first time he posts. Shifts goalposts he says, our man plays a different game with each post. Can't believe his only go-to argument is BMD, who he seems to look up to. And looks like he's learned a new word: "retard."

Pre-war exercises are a normal, mean to check for readiness. Some of it is just camouflage for actual operations.
