No idea. I suspect B-8/MRSAM is capable of dealing with short range ASBM threats. For longer range MRBM/IRBM targets, the IN is working on LRSAM (IAC) and Kusha variants.I was reading about our FTR and I came across this article. Do we have any plan to embed AAD into our ships in the future?

Operation Sindoor: Aftermath
- Thread starter Defc0n
- Start date
What about using a FTR as mobile maritime SAM? We can a fire BMD system from such a platform why not turn such a testing platform to a mobile SAM ? Ig operating cost would be an issue..
Well, the high power radars aboard FTR/Anvesh can certainly be used to track incoming BM targets and cue SAMs fired from our frontline FF/DDGs. Anvesh could theoretically even do so even while at berth using power from ground-based generators.
But it's too big/slow/limited for a frontline radar picket/SAM role.
south??? when did they come south? WHAT? bro noway this is real. I CANT accept that an air cheif would be stupid enough to claim things about areas he didnt even try to attack. Like saying we got 100 kills in the air is fine cause you can atleast be somewhat delusional about it but saying you crippled areas that you didnt even get close to is so stupid its insane.
Diplomatic activity during OP Sindoor. The Pakistanis were actively lobbying during the OP to try to get the scale of the conflict reduced or halted altogether.
This Islamic terrorist Munir us upto something ...his rhetoric and threat level have increased and he is definitely planning something big . I think this time he should be openly humiliated to the extent that he shouldn't be able to hide his incompetency using his PR machinery
Another darra/peshawar made carbine, another paksitani...
Why local police? Isnt there any dedicated police agency that handles arrest, commute, proceedings for such terrorists.
I realise that since it's a regular phenomenon, local police will be well equipped, but it's also prone to risks of being local. In covert domain. Which a dedicated agency can counter. Perhaps?

No it is not. It's more like pakistanis don't know yet how to exploit it's potential well or had kept it turned off fearing Harop strikes. Another thing is, Rawalpindi is beside the hills where cruise missiles can fly and sneak into the Chaklala airfield undetected, SCALP being a stealth cruise missile makes it much more effective.
We lost most of our planes to HQ-9B, not PL-15E. It is afterall based on the S-300 with much better electronics, probably the one with PAF might be slightly inferior to our S-400s.

Retired IAF personnel arrested for 'spying' in Assam's Tezpur

A retired Indian Air Force personnel has been arrested in Assam’s Tezpur for allegedly establishing links with Pakistani intelligence operatives and sharing defence-related documents with them.
The arrest comes after Arunachal Pradesh Police also arrested four suspected spies, all from Kashmir’s Kupwara, who police said were allegedly sharing security-related information — including the deployment and movement of Indian armed forces — with Pakistani handlers through a Telegram channel. The arrests were made from different parts of the state, including the capital Itanagar, West Siang district and Changlang district.
The GoI continues to sleepwalk. They need to get more such tweets thrown at them.
