Operation Sindoor: India Strikes Terroist Camps Inside Pakitsan

Hi everyone, is it okay to ask a few things here?

Does Indian AD (assuming MRSAM and Akash) have the range to shoot down PAF jets inside Pakistan's airspace should the need arise?

And, what advantages does a manned air strike offer over a missile barrage (not a rhetorical question, just genuine doubt)? Like, if the targets are known, wouldn't a missile strike free up all manned aircraft in A2A patrols instead of tying down some of the best BVR fighters (in this case, Rafales) in A2G missions?

If any of these questions are contextually inappropriate, lemme know. I'll take them down.
 
Su 30MKI proved its metal against AMRAM and PL 15. I don't count PL 15 dodging any significant achievement. The only take away is the Exposure of PL-15 and Chinese weapons like HQ 9 and other HQ 1 to HQ 100. Now I think China should send J 20 and Chinese pilots. This strike gave us great chance to expose s**ty chinese weapons.

As you can see, there was an another boom following the speculative Rafale crash which injured 9 people while 1 died! What could be that another boom? SAM or BVR or something else🤔. More details will come out post this operation but for now I wouldn't want to speculate any further.

Potentially the engine ingested something.

Verify losses now in preparation for Phase 2.

BDA will come later, when we have guaranteed information.

The real target is PA, not rats living in holes.

With dual-pulse and AESA seeker defeating PL-15 is a far more impressive thing than dodging AIM-120C5 being fired from R-Max.

Good thing is that now we've recovered the remnants of PL-15E missile with its seeker almost intact. So, now our scientists will devise a spoofing technique for it which all-our fighters will get soon thereby nullifying Pakistani new wonder weapon.

Nope. Only the S-400 does. Someday, Project Kusha.

Missiles have higher failure rates, can be intercepted, and BDA takes more time.

Boss, stop being an idiot now. You were not up against a terrorist organization, you were up against entire military might of a nation. One of the well armed nations on the planet. They indeed eat grass but they keep their sword sharp. And yet our forces completed what they set out to do. With minimal losses.

Even likes of USA are having issues when fighting Yemenis so this putting of Rafale on pedestal is highly stupid. In war men and material are lost. Most important part is achieving what we set out to. India did achieve.

Now let us see if Pakistan dares to retaliate. If it does, India should inflict major damage to its war fighting abilities. If not, India has won.

In war, there will be losses of good men and machine. Rafales proved their mettle last night when they infiltrated highly defended Pakistani airspace and accurately destroyed all their targets.

One speculative loss because of some technical glitch over our own territory doesn't undermine their combat prowess.
