Ask that to the Chinese or the pakis who never declare their dead or killed. Why should only we declare our losses I have seen no one on Twitter or dfi ever mention that pakis and Chinese never declare losses it took china 9 months to declare their deaths in galwan
SAAB Erieye cannot guide Chinese AAMs, western datalink cannot be used to guide chinese missiles, this has already been discussed. PAF's chinese AWACS are already retired btw. I don't know about whether PLAAF AWACS are able to guide their AAMs or not, that is debatable.IAF is in a precarious situation. No IAF BVR missiles can get mid course updates from AEW&Cs or a UAV relay. This means they need to guided by the shooter itself or a buddy shooter, they will be under threat from PL-15 and PL-17 and may not be able to provide mid course updates throughout to ensure good PK. Where as PAF or PLAAF shooter can engage in truly fire and forget tactic, shooter fires BVR and then rely on AEW&Cs or UAV relay to guide the missile via Chinese datalink.
Only solution is to develop a local tactical data link system like Link16 or 17. To update ASTRA missile series to work with this datalink. Re platforms, update SU30MKI, MIG29UPG, LCA and our AEW&Cs with this datalink. Not sure if french platforms can be updated without huge OEM costs.
Till then, IAF will have to be defensive in air to air engagement and relying on SAMs like S400, MRSAM and Kusha (in future for area denial). Longer range air to surface standoff weapons like, Rudram 2 & 3 will provide deterrence against PLAAF and PAF (they are specially vulnerable to it).

No need to waste time this guy is known congitard … he is just repeating what his anti Hindu/anti India leader raul vinci is saying
Thanks mate, please can you post before and after pics of Skardu airforce base bombed to hell, using your HD chinese satellites? Please give my thanks in advance for your commissar incharge of such activities!
That's why I said ask your commissar for it, we are not freeloaders like your iron brother pakistanis! We (GOI) have them and will release these specific pics for Skardu, when the time is ripe, they will be released.
Media management is not work of army. CDS must be straight and right , but they must have taken him out of context. Moreover all the world media is hell bent upon to show Great Indian Victory in poor light , so they all are after every thing twisted in their way.However , I think GOV should take note of this and should improve upon this in next game. I would again say it here , actually winning war is more important than media war.
This is correct , but still GOV should have prolonged this for another day or two. The complete humiliation of PAK in front of world would have achieved much more peace for India , I do not know for what reason they immediately accepted ceasefire.
I agree we have datalinks that connect AEW&C to shooters like BNET-AR, etc. But the datalink for BVR missile guidance is only from shooters, our AEW&Cs do not have the ability to provide these updates directly to BVR missile. This is the capability gap vis-a-vis PLAAF and PAF now. For example, the ku band datalink for Astra mk1 is on the Astra launcher pylon itself. We have the ability for a buddy (different from actual shooter) to guide missiles but these are fighters too and unlike AEW&C or UAV relay (beaming updates from ground station) will be in the threat envelope of PL-15.
Look mate
