, so we can expect karachi porr and their frigates to be destroyed within an hour into the next conflict
I pray some uniformed afsar doesn't contradict him in the next few days
Yeah, porkis celebrate repairing runways "in a few days" saying IAF did have the "courage" to attack them further, but the very reason a very large chunk of their medium transport and aerial refuellers exist today because IAF didn't target them, not because it couldn't. Although this restraint-ful approach should be shunned. You had the capability to decapitate their warfighting capability when you have ultimate conventional superiority to neutralise their prized assets, yet you didn't like for what idk tbh.
Look at the debris how far its blasted open no way any men or machine can survive to fight ever again.
I am not sure whether it is to confuse the enemy or put the incumbent in hot water
The joke is you have the CDS, deputy, some navy asfar as attache in Indonesia and top Defence baboo messing with us via contradicting statements, meanwhile you have not a peep from the Afsars of the relevant organization who's planes were allegedly shot down.
I am pleasantly surprised some such Sun Tzu "to confuse the enemy, you first must get confused yourself" gem didn't come out of Doval's mouth, and it was just as muscular as govt communications should be.
Because it's not a frontline air base. It is more of a civilian airstrip which itself has negligible usage. It's annual passenger air traffic is just two thousand (2k). It is more of an emergency usage asset for them, not a frontline base, and not repairing them does show how unimportant it is for them.
Hence we need a efficient Mass Payload delivery Mechanism. That is as much less MTOW of the Projectile as possible for given payload for example 100kg or 500kg Warhead.
In absence of large scale Air Force, our pivot should be towards Missiles. In such scenario Long Range LACM andare too costly to project mass on enemy. One of the most disadvantageous position Pakistan has is in regarding India- its geography. Every base is within atmost 300-400km or so from our border. MLRS won't reach that kind of range and would need full fledged Missile which need to be atleast 2 to 3-Ton.
What I think is best way to deliver mass is Winged Glide Bomb paired to Rocket.

This GL-SDB has a range of 150-Km with just max weight of 270-Kg but with 100-Kg warhead. Imagine a JSOW which has 500-Kg warhead but paired with a 370-mm rocket(JSOW has diameter of 330mm). It would easily give a range of 300 to 400-Km.
Moreover these are very stealthy, silent and doesn't emit any IR Signature to shoot them down.

I don't think there are any PAF squadrons or detachments stationed here during peacetime but during wartime when assets need to be dispersed then this one would serve detachments of JF-17 & Mirages.
The 1 to 10 Glide Ratio doesn't work at such high altitude of 50,000. It maxes out atmost 20-Km and above that its not optimistic. So you can get atmost 200km Glide and add on to a 200-Km range impartation initially by a Rocket, it would easily give 400km. The Booster need to be designed to burn slowly without unnecessary high speed and high altitude with as much low MTOW as possible.
Yes impact was big and it does take time.
Pralay maro yaar uspe bhi to hai anti randwe warheadI was wishing that we sneak in 1 or 2 prithvi's with BCES submunitions during op sindoor on Paki airbases.
Alas, while conventional warhead it's still under strategic forces command.
So it didn't see any action.
If we had a air launched missiles with this warhead, I'm sure IAF would have used it, given they even targeted Noor Khan and rawalpindi, that's how pissed IAF was.
