Operation Sindoor & Aftermath (128 Viewers)

Ran another IN vs PN & PAF Scenario.
- PN launched all their anti-ship missiles when they detected IN, IA & IAF launch. PAF too launched a significant salvo initially but were also able to rearm and launch more times.
- Pakistan had access to all Chinese satellites
- Indian initial salvo was more sophisticated this time:
IN fired at least 4 brahmos at each PN ship
IAF launched brahmos & Scalp EG at Karachi Port, Karachi & Bholari airbase
IA launched land attack brahmos at Karachi Port & refinery
- This main engagement was over in 3 rounds. So no IAF Jaguars were able to launch Harpoon as they had to takeoff from Jamnagar and reach their launch points and by that time all PN ships were sunk.
- IN Composition
SAG 1 - 1x P15A [Kolkata destroyer], 2x Talwar Class Frigate [Batch 2], 1x P17 [Shivalik Class], 1x P15 [Delhi Class], 1x Type209 [Shishumar]
SAG 2 - 1x P15A [Kolkata], 1x P15 [Delhi], 1x P28 [Kamorta], 2x Talwar [Batch 2]
CBG - 2x P15B [Vishakhapatnam destroyer], 2x P17A [Nilgiri Frigate], 1x P17 [Shivalik Class], 1x P28 [Kamorta], 1x Vikrant, 1x Scorpene [Kalvari]
Independent units - 1x Scorpene, 3x Kilo
- 3x Agosta 90B submarines were provided. One was located in middle of CBG and SAG2. Another one in front of CBG and third one in front of SAG1. Since the engagement was over in 3 rounds there was no detection or counter detections. Land attack Klub are not available with Kilo submarine in CMO.
- There were AA/BVR engagements over Gujarat border and no shootdowns on either side.

Conclusions:
- In PN/PAF first counter response, YJ12A sunk 1x Talwar frigate from SAG1. In my observation Barak8 is critical, there was only 1 Barak8/MRSAM equipped ship in this SAG. It was located a bit too far towards the right of this sunk ship in the group and could not intercept a couple of YJ12As that struck. I think each SAG requires at least 2 MRSAM equipped ships. More MRSAM ships that can be added to CBG and SAG the better it is.
- PAF losses were on ground when Pasni and Karachi airbases were hit. Same with P3 at Karachi.
- Some of the Harbah anti-ship missiles had to be engaged with CIWS [AK630]
- Almost 70-75% of Pakistan missile attacks were focused on CBG. Rest were on SAG1 with SAG2 only facing minimal threat as it was located opposite Gwadar [far from Karachi]. In this scenario only F16s were based in Pasni.
- SAG-1 ran out of Barak-8s and after a ship was sunk I launched all remaining brahmos and withdrew this group. There was 1 attack on the retreating group with 2x CM400 but they were intercepted with Shtil SAM. CBG also expended more than 80% of Barak-8s.
- 16x Babur were fired on Jamnagar refinery. Refinery escaped unharmed with point defense provided by Spyder and L-70 AD guns which took down all missiles.
- Karachi port/base destroyed with brahmos
- Karachi refinery destroyed with brahmos
- Ormara naval base/pier damaged with Rampage hits
- PN Surface fleet all sunk with brahmos
- Karachi JY-27 radar destroyed with brahmos
- Karachi HQ-9B destroyed with brahmos & Rampage
- Karachi airbase damaged with brahmos & Rampage
- Pasni airbase damaged with Rampage

As far as I know they haven't ordered 150 rudram-1 missiles
Still under some files
Media wale jitna importance chilaye jab tak iaf ke gand nahi jalengi tab tak woh file nahi uthaya jayega
EoD India has nothing it trusts enough to use in combat sans Brahmos which Russkies help us build. It's frustrating af.
Astra 1's kill was also denied thanks to stupid RoE's

The next time when they have to do SEAD/DEAD and whatever Russian ARM they have is inadequate maybe they'll remember Rudram-1

Thank God the Israelis don't have their own ARM that they sell.

IAF doesn't even order anything on time even when they have indigenous option available. Chalo Tejas isn't ready, that is HAL and cos fault. But what stopping IAF from inducting all those missiles that have been cleared for induction. They have so much scrutiny over any of our indigenous products. They can always induct in limited quantity and test it themselves to give feedback to the maker. Same IAF jumps for any imported missiles without much questions because "well tested weapons saar". And here some folks I shall not name makes IAF seems like victim of MoD and DPSUs. When they have also been one of the guys with Phawda alongside MoD and DPSUs babus that dig this hole for themselves..IMG_20250706_123022.webp

IAF can induct many things
Rudram-1 and 2(few user tests are remaining)
Gaurav and Gautam
indigenous PGMs
And many other things
Jab tak gand main danda nahi tab tak kuch nahi hoga
 
Is there any context to hellfire's tweet or is he just replying to some random guy's tweets somewhere?

sanctions/embargo is a very real possibility.
He is stating why we need to consider USA in our equation
We cant disobey them especially with someone like trump in power
They can grab our balls

50kg heavy saar.

If this is not dalali and sabotage then what else.

They have no problem in inducting half baked foreign maal magar indigenous system order karne me gaand sulag jaati hai.

Rudram-1 and 2(few user tests are remaining)
If further delay in user trails **doesn't** happen, then user trails can be concluded in late 2025-early 2026.
With "limited series production" starting in late 2026-early 2027.

Due to delays in user trail, rudram 1 and 2 will have their production start at similar time.


In "User trails" IAF tests the missiles in "realistic wartime scenarios".
So it's not just attaching a missile, flying and firing it, as done in validation trails.

The modified su30mki testbed for user trails was delayed until late 2024.
The modified testbed is modified for all three rudram 1,2,3 missiles.
Su30 mki was given for modifications in late 2023.
So IAF delayed in providing testbed to be modified for a year when captive trails for rudram 1 were completed in 2022, and it took approx an entire year to modify a su30 just to become compatible with another missile.
So user trails began in late 2024.

So that's basically the saga of rudram 1 induction delay by 2-3 years than expected.
Further delays are further possible🙃.

We can, what he is saying, he assumes we becomes a pariah like Iran.

All we have to do is tank any threats and tariffs/sanctions/embargoes till we destroy PAF and PN assets, and also PA storage depos or platforms..

In the months or maybe year after that do I'M SORRY SAAAR diplomacy and concessions to get the sanctions removed.
Maybe dial up Tim Apple and other invested Corpos to also do some lobbying.

The heaviest sanctions on China post tiananmen square massacre were removed in 2 years, however the arms embargo remained and that was a good thing for the Chings.

This all assumes Govt's objective is to do serious damage to Fauji Foundation.


If them having us by the balls was so definite you wouldn't see regime change mobs against leaderji, pannun-nijjer issue, GE engine drama etc, we would just obey the farmans out of Washington.

We do have some latitude but it's risky.
 
In the press meet, Lt. Gen. Rahul Singh mentioned that some Indian systems worked well in Operation Sindoor, while some didn't. Does anyone have any idea which Indian systems he referred to that didn't meet expectations?

People on twitter say it was the EW/Softkill systems.
So you had to use L-70 cannons to shoot the drones

We technically were Pariah after the fall of Soviets for a quite a bit of time. Well we have sanctioned by them once afterall.
