If a Mig29 is still alive in the iranian air force, it will not last more than a couple of hours.
more probably an IFF problem.
 
Things are looking pretty bad for energy and commercial ships that are trying to transit the area. There are reports certain orgs. have expressed concerns and have brought their commercial activities to a near stand still in the region. Markets are not reacting well. Qataris and UAE have stated that this is negatively impacting their commercial engagements (Source: Bloomberg News Flash).

India may have also put it's air defences on high alert. Only to make sure that due to India's close relation with Israel and in case of war escalates and Israel requests India for some military equipment and create a supply chain, India may be prone to Iranian missile strikes.
 
Talk about lapses in internal security. Many vendors continue to supply them to different civic bodies in various states. Lowest bidding and all is fine; that has been the case for most tenders. However, there should at least be clauses that prevent such scenarios. Needs to happen at both State and GoI level. I hope some policies are already being enacted. I had read up on them earlier.


Won't derail the thread any further. The GoI has some guidelines in place.

The Indian government has made it mandatory for CCTV camera manufacturers to submit hardware, software, and even source code for security assessment in government labs before they can sell their products in the country.
