Indian Air Force: News & Discussions

i agree. too much dhoti shivering. After all, Tom Cruise proved to us that its the pilot, not the plane and with the right pilot a Superhornet will fuckup 3 F-22s.
So we should relax and clone abhinandan and let our 100 Mig-21s take out the entire Chicom fleet.

No apetite to entertain your sarcasm buddy.

No one is denying IAF is in a bad shape. But low-testosterone rants & bangle-breaking ceremonies aren't going to summon extra jets either, so be contempt with what is and excited about what it can be.

Our airforce as of now is fucked.
It's not dhoti shivering, it's the truth.

Yes it is. Yes we are fucked.

One thing you learn in Armed Forces (or anywhere in life for that matter) is you show up & fight with what you have, not what you could, would or should have.

You could have always prepared more. You would have been more ready to tackle your adversary. You should have been wise enough to forsee this.

But the truth is none of that happened. So you have two choices, either give up and run, or fight with what you have, and possibly be wiser the next time.

That attitude will be pretty useful during actual war not during the preparation for it.

Well if you have already lost your will to fight even before the war started then our enemies have already won even without declaring a war.

No the other guy is right, we have time now before the Chings come after us for reals, that time what mindset you have described is best.

Like bleh and others were discussing they can get some mirage-2000s to pad the numbers for now.

If even that's not possible they need to rush to either emergency procure air defense systems or get DRDO and DPSU frens to rush production of whatever desi air defence systems are there.

Fauj also needs to get the arty of both spaag and towed varieties.

We should not endup like Ukraine is now, katora in hand and whatever is put in comes with additional T&C from the bheek-givers

If I already lost the will, i wouldn't be critising the air force and Constantly crying about how fucked our airforce is and how much improvement it needs.
