Why are users getting their panties in a twist over IAF jets being shot down? Everyone knows that they have neglected to modernize over the past fifteen years and have let nearly every single aspect of their air force wither away. I would be more surprised if they walked away from any engagement against a peer adversary without losses.
Which part in Rafale is not modern?
 

Muh tod jawab Diya jaa chuka hai.They are already backing down.

Looks like Pak wants to fold

They dont have any camps in India they can bomb
Hitting a dam will invite a harsh response from India plus the risk of flood damage to Pak
Hitting army / airforce units will climb up the escalation ladder
Hitting infra - will invite a response

Looks like Pak wont play folks - its a shame.

Our super sukhoi upgrade has not happened. Astra mk2 still hasn't been inducted. The meteors are limited to 36 fighters.
The tejas mk1a still hasn't been put into service.

Better to focus on the Chinese. The tarrif war is the bigger objective.

The limited losses we faced is a very good thing. Normally, we should have lost a third of our attacking force.

The best they could do is shoot down 2 jets, probably. And even if it's 5 or 6, it's still peanuts.

First day of conflict should normally see tremendous losses.
First day loss are expected?How many IAF fighter jets were lost during Iran campaign?
 
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.

Duel pulse and AESA are not same for every missiles. France AESA and Chinese AESA has a big difference. It is Chinese maal. Chinea copied BMW but it scored 0 in safety rating. Chinese maal ka koi Bharosa nahi bro.

The platform itself has modern avionics but, at the end of the day, it's still just a 4th gen platform. It is really the bare minimum you need to face a peer opponent. India only has 36 of them and lacks adequate AWACs support.

Against militias like the Houthis or Hamas, or even degraded powers like Syria, it is perfectly fine. Against adversaries that take modernization seriously? It's just not enough on its own.
