Pahalgam Islamic Terror Attack

Americans developed such ARM after their bloody experience with SA-2 in Vietnam , Vietnamese used to switch Off their radars and ARM usually loose track of the target. They developed HARM and used it effectively against Iraqi SA-3, SA-2, SA-6, SA-8 OSA . So nothing new in this technology it is in active duty since 80's.
I would like to see if HARPY will be used??? Most modern/hi tech weapons come from America
others copy or make third class versions like china. Russians and israelis have also innovated.
 
Kali 5000
First time some one reporting ...after kali he mentions rafales spectra ..seems a speculative report
The author is quoting a senior defense official:
 
Gemini AI overview...
KALI-5000 is a top-secret weapon system under development in India, designed to neutralize incoming missiles and other aerial threats using a "soft-kill" approach, meaning it disables targets electronically rather than destroying them physically. KALI stands for Kilo Ampere Linear Injector.

Elaboration:
    • Purpose:
      KALI-5000 is intended to be a defense system that can disrupt incoming missiles, aircraft, and even potentially satellites by disabling their electronic systems, effectively rendering them inoperative.
    • Technology:
      It's based on a pulsed electron accelerator that generates high-energy electron beams. These beams can be directed at targets to disrupt their electronic circuits.
    • Development:
      The project is being developed by DRDO (Defence Research and Development Organisation) and BARC (Bhaba Atomic Research Centre).
    • Strategic Importance:
      KALI-5000 is seen as a potential game-changer in India's defense capabilities, particularly as a countermeasure to threats from adversarial missile and UAV systems.
    • Secrecy:
      The Indian government has not publicly confirmed the existence or capabilities of the weapon, citing national security concern
where would power supply for KALI come from in remote locations???
 
where would power supply for KALI come from in remote locations???
exactly my point. its a gigawatt gun for sure. not impractical though. it can definitely microwave shit but the power requirements would be rather consequential. its best suited for guarding strategic locations like cities and facilities. during war time a whole grid can be allocated to power the system.
 
Now that PM has given full choice of operational decisions to armed forces, I request the expert opinion of forum members if India possesses the ability to use swarm of attack drones on targetted terror camps? If so please provide how deep they can go inside POK or if needed how deep into the Pak international border? In keeping with the tradition of change in strategy adapted in strikes responding to Uri and Pulwama, i expect armed forces will be using attack drones this time. So please explain the capabilities of what is already known in public domain making sure not to reveal any strategic details that can jeopardise the response. Thanks

We hv cutting edge swam drone technology ranging from heterogeneous to homogeneous swarm drones..
This is the field where we absolutely annihilate paxtani non existent capability.


Talking about range IAF has recently inducted suresharta mk1 from Veda defense system it's a unique niche jet powered drone with a striking range of 150km..

We also have huge advantage in PGMs.. our quiver is filled with ROCKs ALBM, RAMPAGE, AIR LORA ALBM, ICE BREAKER (unique with range of 300km in low low profile) ..

Definitely we will see us employ mix of swarm drones as well as PGMs to strike and staturate enemy airspace.
 
I would like to see the performance of ASTRA and METEOR.
Their performance..

That day in feb ...f16 was in higher altitude,so it fired amraams towards su30,
Su 30s were in lower altitude, didn't able to fire r77s ,as higher lunch altitude gives a missile more range

So astra performance meteor performance will depend on various factors
Someday , pl15 can outrange meteor

The IAF is reportedly preparing to leverage its advantage in "first look, first shot, first kill" capabilities against the PAF, particularly by utilizing platforms like the AWACS and other advanced aircraft to cripple the PAF's battle management network. This strategy aims to reduce PAF's air defense capabilities and allow for deeper IAF strikes, potentially forcing Pakistan into a defensive posture.

Here's a more detailed look:
  • First Look, First Shot, First Kill:
    This refers to the ability of an aircraft to detect, target, and destroy an enemy aircraft before the enemy even has a chance to react.

  • IAF's Approach:
    The IAF is reportedly planning to use platforms like the AWACS (Airborne Warning and Control System) and other advanced aircraft to disrupt the PAF's ability to detect and track aircraft.

  • Targeting PAF's Battle Management Network:
    By neutralizing the PAF's AWACS and other radar systems, the IAF aims to reduce the effectiveness of the PAF's air defenses.

  • Enabling Deeper Strikes:
    With the PAF's radar coverage weakened, the IAF could penetrate deeper into Pakistan's airspace to attack high-value targets with lower risk of interception.

  • Forcing a Defensive Posture:
    This strategy could force the PAF to reconfigure its defenses, pull back assets, and divert resources from offensive planning.

  • Examples of "First Look, First Kill" Technologies:
    Some examples of technologies that enable "first look, first shot, first kill" include advanced radars, long-range air-to-air missiles, and stealth technology.

  • IAF's Modernization Efforts:
    The IAF is also investing in advanced fighter jets and weaponry, including the Tejas Mk1A and Rafale, to enhance its capabilities.

  • Focus on Air Superiority:
    The IAF's doctrine emphasizes air superiority and the ability to dominate the skies, allowing for the effective projection of power and the disruption of enemy operations.
