The PAF may not have intended for it to have happened like it did---but the results of that day's---day light strike and skirmish over kashmir has many a powers shook up---concerned---and looking for answers---answers that may not be easy to find and consequences no easy to confront---.
The first major combat of two equally well equipped air forces of the world has some shocking results for the major powers to analyze and assess---.
The myth of the Israeli / French / Russian technology on one side---and on the other side---Chinese technology with ruthless and brutally efficient PAF brains behind that technology in operation.
The PAF ---after living all thru those years on sanctions---and as Air Marshall Latif quoted Gen Mushhy " we went with pockets full of money and no one would sell us the fighter aircraft---"---the PAF had a grudge against the claimed powers to be---they were mad as hell---mad as a hornets nest disturbed in the dark of the night---continuously being blamed for every wrong that was done in India by the Indians themselves on their own---.
The Indians came by choice---at a time and place of their choosing---openly threatening the Pakistan military---and yet they had to trun tail.
In return---Pakistan's response of retaliation at a time and place of their own choosing was not taken seriously---and there were many who had reservations about it---.
But when Pakistan struck back---the strike was made in the light of the day---for the world and the public to see---it was masterful---it was tactful---it was ruthless and it was brutal---.
Nobody in the world---no military power in the world expected that kind of retaliation by the pak military---.
And as they say---" success has many fathers---and defeat is an orphan---"---suddenly the Indian air force felt like it had been orphaned by its very own---. Indian Prime minister after reviewing the losses---had the realization dawn on him that his aircraft were not capable of defending the motherland until and unless he did not have the most modern Rafales---.
that was just one small part of the picture---. The bigger and the larger part of the picture was the Pakistan / China fighter / China EW package and china weapons broke the spell of the modern Israeli / Russian / French EW package---made it go to sleep and spun their own magic in Chinese and Pakistani and made the enemy fall from the skies---.
This was unexpected---was not a part of the picture---was not supposed to happen---was not allowed to happen---but it did---.
The unexpected successful exposure of the unknown newer weaponry into the air combat field by the PAFhas had an eye popping effect in many a leading nations of the world---. The weapons system that was known to be below par and docile turned out to be a monster---.
I would not be surprised if mother China was equally surprised by the effectiveness of its weapons---
