Operation Sindoor

[JConline]

Ajay Raina in Aadi show said people are already facing health issues near noor khan.

Watching the same.
Last night we did retaliate. Drones in Peshawar and Ammo depot in Karachi taken out.

 

[crazywithmath]

Yeah so the speculation/fear/conspiracy theories seems to be becoming the truth.

Seems like a JOINT INDIA-US-ISRAELI Operation is needed to take out/neutralize Paki Nukes as they can't protect it anymore. D-FANG the Islamic Terrorist SNAKE!

Inside Kirana hills: The site India denies striking

Social media footage posted on the day of strikes showed smoke billowing from the surrounding peaks.

Okay, yet another confirmation - this time from India Today.

Honestly, I do not get some members. This is absolutely based stuff - not even the mighty US has ever struck a fucking nuke storage.

Why on earth are you chaps bhosdapilling?

Paki plane or US energy plane, the scenario doesnt change much - its still a damn sniffer plane. there is only one reason for it to be there. There is also one reason for Egyptian military to fly in Boron- which egypt mines and sells btw- to pakistan.
I am not going to say more on this, because this is one of those things IAF wants plausible deniability on so it will NEVER confirm, it will be duffer to confirm it - but as i said, i am not fake news peddler on this thread or running with fake news stuff all over the place either and this is the stuff that your kids will find out 50 years from now when declassified.

We may not see radiation leakage ourselves- radiation leakage detection is highly wind pattern dependent.
because you are not detecting radiation eminating from the site in case of a meltdown, you are detecting radiation emitted from the airborne burning radioactive material, that is inside smoke of burning meltdown scenario. again. meltdown is a very specific nuclear physics thing. This i know to a decently good degree too ( 1st tier nuclear physics course for eg, which is a 300 level course in science depts, aka 3rd year).
This is why chernobyl was detected in sweden and not in moscow and moscow was actually blind to the lies of the commies down on ground till it send people after it got exposed - coz wind carried burning chernobyl dust to sweden, not moscow, that is how the air patterns 'do'.

I am no meteoroligical guru, so i wont claim or deny if WE should be able to detect it or not, all i am going to say is the answer lies in wind pattern data and its easily possible for us to not notice it but iran to go 'wtf pakis. why do i have radioactive smoke in chabahar'.

There are 'unconfirmed' reports of us striking a few more nuke storage/testing sites - one of them located near Attock (Kala Chitta range).

Also, like you have written, there are some reports claiming a hit on Chagai too. Make of it what you will. But I am yet to come across compelling video/geolocation/sat images detailing the impact of that strike.

They will forever remain unconfirmed from our side without pakis going a crusade to show we did it, because we are not duffers, we dont want to risk dealing with international politics of being a non unsc veto member neutralizing nooks and doing what has never been done before in the nook sector.
That is bottomline.
Modiji isnt hitler or saddam hussain to suddenly think he is possed by the spirit of napoleon.

 

[Brimstone]

imo the numbers are low? Years ago i vaguely remember reading India had plans to produce
upto 2000 brahmos a year just for India in 10 years from one facility ,since we are also exporting them now I would think that there would even more produced and more facilities??

BrahMos

The BrahMos (designated PJ-10)[15] is a medium-range supersonic ramjet cruise missile that can be launched from submarine, ships, aircraft, or land.[16] It is a joint venture between the Russian Federation's NPO Mashinostroyeniya and India's Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO)...

Depends on various factors

1. What do you want to use it for ?
2. How many identified targets ?
3. How far they are ?
4. How many customers you've got ?

Even if we have 5K, we'll keep 3 for China and 2 for Pak, I guess. At 40 a piece daily, you're covered for 50 days for Pak.

Sure if we're exporting, we should pump up those numbers. But I think we are covered. What we should focus on is cheap medium range drones and ballistic missiles.

Yes, my assessment too. None of the strikes are going to get confirmed any time soon - be it the Kirana hills, Chagai or Kala Chitta.

Pakroaches ate a humble pie. Also, shows how hollow their nuclear threats actually were - retards cannot even protect their nuke storages and yet, have the guts to threaten us on every other day.

The real numbers will never be revealed, no country ever reveals their strategic weapon
numbers accurately it is always estimated numbers.

If the Indian military is capable of targeting and neutralizing Pakistan’s nuclear installations, then the U.S. military could do so with even greater ease. The notion of nuclear deterrence in Pakistan’s case is a myth.

 

[Brimstone]

multiple evidence suggesting that India has destroyed Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal.

I am dumb. Can someone please explain how destroying nuclear arsenal can lead to nuclear explosion ?

Nuclear warheads contain conventional explosives used to trigger the nuclear reaction. The Indian Air Force has targeted Pakistani nuclear sites housing a significant portion of its nuclear arsenal—around 80%. These strikes caused the sympathetic detonation of the conventional explosives within the warheads. While such detonations typically do not initiate a full nuclear chain reaction, they lead to the release of radiation. This is the reason behind recent series of earthquakes observed in Pakistan.

Highly unlikely . Sesmic activity comes from fission or fusion reaction . No amount of explosive on nuclear weapons can trigger fission or fusion , what it can do is leak radiation . However that does not give sesmic readings .

So the strikes triggered full reaction ? I find it hard to believe that it is that easy to trigger a nuke. I can believe the radiation leak part.
Also how would you explain previous quakes?

On - here's a quick AI (Perplexity Pro) analysis. Take it with a huge bucket of salt but the 10k is BS. The actual number is between 2000-3000 missiles with a ~250/year production capacity. Enjoy:

The BrahMos Aerospace ecosystem relies on a network of public and private manufacturers. The Lucknow production facility, inaugurated in May 2025, is designed to produce 80–100 missiles annually. This complements existing infrastructure, including plants operated by Godrej Aerospace and Larsen & Toubro (L&T).

• Godrej Aerospace: By September 2021, Godrej had delivered 200 airframe assemblies, each comprising 138 sub-assemblies and 1,500 parts. These airframes form the structural backbone of the missiles, suggesting a baseline production capacity of ~50–60 units annually prior to 2025.
• L&T: The company delivered its 100th Transport Launch Canister (TLC) in 2023, with each canister supporting storage, transport, and launch functions. Given the TLC’s specialized manufacturing requirements, this milestone indicates sustained production aligned with missile assembly rates.

Combined, these facilities suggest a pre-2025 annual production rate of 100–150 missiles, scaling to 200–250 missiles/year with the Lucknow plant’s full operationalization.

Military Deployment and Operational Requirements

Indian Army and Air Force Holdings​

• Indian Army: Operates 23 BrahMos mobile autonomous launchers, each typically configured with 3–4 missiles per system. Assuming 4 missiles per launcher and a 50% reserve stockpile, this translates to 138–184 missiles (23 × 4 × 1.5). [My take: This number is incorrect. From memory, when I'd last checked we have 5-6 operational regiments of which equals 300-400 missiles]
• Indian Air Force (IAF): As of 2022, 40 Sukhoi Su-30MKI aircraft were modified to carry BrahMos missiles. With each jet capable of deploying one missile and a 100% reserve ratio (operational + spare missiles), the IAF likely maintains 80–120 missiles.

Naval Deployments​

While exact figures are classified, the Indian Navy’s BrahMos deployments include:

• Ship-based systems: Installed on destroyers like the Kolkata-class and frigates such as the Talwar-class.
• Coastal batteries: Shore-based units for maritime defence.
• Open-source estimates suggest the Navy operates 50–70 launchers, with a similar reserve ratio to the Army, implying 300–420 missiles.

Export Commitments and Their Impact​

Philippine Contracts​

In 2024–2025, India delivered two BrahMos batteries to the Philippines under a $375 million deal, with negotiations ongoing for seven additional batteries. Each battery typically includes 3–4 launchers and 12–16 missiles. Assuming 12 missiles per battery, the total export commitment amounts to 108–144 missiles (9 × 12).

Other Prospective Buyers

Indonesia, Thailand, and Gulf states have expressed interest, but no confirmed orders exist beyond the Philippines. Export production likely occurs in parallel with domestic manufacturing, minimizing inventory drawdowns.

Synthesis of Inventory Estimates

Assuming an average annual production of 120 missiles from 2007 to 2024 (17 years), total output would approximate 2,040 missiles. Adjusting for:​

• Pre-2021 lower capacity: Early production likely averaged 50–80 missiles/year, rising post-2018 with Modi’s defense corridor push4.
• Post-2021 expansion: Increased to 150–200 missiles/year with Godrej and L&T scaling23.

A conservative estimate places total production at 1,500–1,800 missiles by 2025.

Inventory Adjustments

• Exports: ~100–150 missiles (Philippines deliveries and spares)68.
• Testing and attrition: 5–10% of production (~75–180 missiles) allocated to trials and training.

Operational Inventory​

Subtracting exports and attrition, India’s active stockpile likely ranges between 1,200–1,500 missiles. This aligns with:

• Army/IAF requirements: ~500–700 missiles.
• Naval needs: ~300–500 missiles.
• Strategic reserves: ~400–600 missiles.

my friend was in the navy he was in a nuclear submarine sleeping in a bunk next to nuclear warheads. He always claimed they leaked radiation ???? But large explosions can trigger nuclear explosions and/or leakage. Nuclear bombs chain reaction is started through explosion called a" fizzle " in the warhead/missile after they are detonated.

 

[Nishaanbaaz]

Ajay Raina in Aadi show said people are already facing health issues near noor khan.

Surest sign would be if they start handing out Potassium Iodide pills to people in the vicinity or shift them away from the area - at that point there would be zero doubt of radiation from hitting something nuclear.

Bolded parts are Incorrect.
1. Triggers of nuclear bomb always has a radioactive element to it that is true trigger.
2. You can drop 1000 tonnes of tnt over all the nook bums of the world it still wont go nuclear explosion, like you can do it 1 trillion times and maybe once it does, max, but nope. nothing else will happen. i have explained this earlier in this thread.
All yuo will do by hitting a nuclear bum, is make a worse chernobyl of sorts- its a meltdown but with highly enriched uranium ( so chernobyl in output but 1/100th in size), etc etc.

Its highly unlikely these are nukes going off due to strikes on nuclear facilities. that would require us to use nukes on it, as only a nuke reaction -however small- can co-opt nuclearbomb fuel minus conventional nook trigger mechanism to make nuclear explosion bigger.

Pakis are not duffers, they wont sit tight if we had used nukes and we are not duffers to use nukes on nuke storage like that. What they have, is a meltdown. these earthquakes are either their tests to show they still got nukes or just earthquakes.
independent from our strikes on kirana hills.

 

[Ajatshatru]

He always claimed they leaked radiation ??? But large explosions can trigger nuclear explosions and/or
leakage. Nuclear bombs chain reaction is started thru explosion in the warhead/missile after
they are detonated.

If there are a hundred nuclear weapons stored in the Kirana Hills and the Indian Air Force bombed the site, even if one detonates, it could trigger an earthquake. This initial explosion might also lead to subsequent detonations, causing additional earthquakes over time.

I am dumb. Can someone please explain how destroying nuclear arsenal can lead to nuclear explosion ?

Ok first thing this is all highly speculative for all we know it is natural activity Pakistan is seismically active zone and all this is just that.

The idea is even a mine collapse can also create earthquakes and infact they have created earthquakes up to 5.2 Richter scale. (Solvay Minerals Trona Mine Collapse Wyoming, USA, 1995)

A cascading mine collapse releases stored elastic energy in the material of the earth which is a lot and so you don’t need a nuke to have a seismic event .

The theory which in my opinion is an edge case so take it with a lot of salt is that say if you were to explode a thermobaric bomb (no one has ever said it is thermobaric but I am going with it) in a bunker buster inside the facility with an hvac system which is pumping air for the staff.

It could create a super charged explosion reverberating through wherever the fuel was spread because of the hvac system. The vacuum bomb creating heat up to 2500 degrees and high pressure due to which structures keeping the tunnel up fail and create a cascading failure and a tunnel collapse.

the magnitude of such an earthquake would depend a lot on the material of the hill in which these tunnels have been dug in, method of construction, etc. But 4.0 Richter scale is possible.

In summary a bunker buster could possibly trigger a cascading tunnel collapse creating an earthquake. This could damage nukes that are stored there and it could release some radioactive material kind of like a dirty bomb but smothered inside a mountain.

In such a case you would need to seal the tunnels forever including the intact nukes and cover all possible leakage points with boron infused concrete. Because radioactivity will make reopeing the tunnels through excavation impossible.

Now most likely what is happening is these earthquakes could be natural. But the kirana hills have most certainly been hit. And even if there is no earthquake there can be cascading tunnel collapse creating the exact same conditions (loss of nukes due to radioactive contamination inside tunnels)
