thats bloody insane...
imagine targeting civilian areas with those,
PLA has a history of targeting Civilians in case of war. They killed nearly 100,000 civilians by Arty strikes & bombardment in sino vietnam war. Strangely Uncle Sam helped them to get away with this.
They would try their rocket artillery to do the same. The sooner we destroy them through IAF the better. Nearby villages need to be evacuated as well. We can't do the same to Tibetans... Coz they are cannon fodder.

Why would you fire air-launched cruise missiles like Brahmos or Scalp from Indian territory? You could simply fly your SU-30MKI and Rafale to any suitable point 600 km from the Three Gorges Dam where your aircraft would fire their missiles and return home.
Find out what are the chances for a SU-30 or even a Rafale to penetrate 1100 km into China without being shot down? I would say close to zero. And forget about a lumbering tanker to refuel them to penetrate Chinese airspace. Even the US today will not penetrate Chinese airspace with anything less than a 5th Gen stealth fighter, at least until Chinese AD is neutralized. Flip that equation around. Do you think that a PLAAF fighter will be able to penetrate Indian air space for 1100 km from the LAC without the IAF shooting it down? Nagpur is 1100 km from the Uttarkhand border. Do you think that a PLAAF plane will be able to reach Nagpur without being shot down? If not why do you assume that the IAF will be able to pull off a similar feat? Yes, it is possible that if border ADs are neutralized the PLAAF bases in Tibet which are within 200-300 km of the border will be interdicted by the IAF. But forget about a deep penetration mission. Not going to happen.

We can give Tibetians a choice,

You attack the Chinkies from back, we will take them on from front.

If civilian homes are near Military installations then India will target them , otherwise not.. and India too is fine with enemy civilian collateral damage.. like when civilians die in pok during IA shelling.. Yes, we evacuate civilians on our side in case the particular area is targeted.. Let the Chinese worry about evacuating the civilians on their side, if they are in danger..

Civilians never have much choice except hiding and running.. We cant wage a war with a bledding heart. Let the Tibetans worry about themselves.. We will only make the right noises, with the right dose of holier than thou morality sprinkled propaganda..as will the Chinese..

Last test is listed as successfull

Sixth Trial

Sixth missile trial from Integrated Test Range, Odisha on 15 April 2019.
The sixth successful trial took place on April 15, 2019. Traversing around 650 km, the test missile navigated way-points located at altitudes varying from 5 meters to 2.5 km. DRDO clarified that all mission objectives were met.[44] The test also validated the terrain hugging and the sea skimming capability of the missile.[45]

This trial completed the developmental trials of the missile.

The next set of trials will be conducted as per the requirements of the user - the Indian Armed Forces
I am not surprised that long range Nirbhya cruise Missile has been deployed. The Missile as a test bed must have been tested for wide spectrum of parameters including capability enhancements. Generally these parameter standards are set very high. As long as it caters the minimum desired objective consistently it must be added to the inventory.

Chinese won't do sh*t. I think Demchok village on Chinese side would be obliterated as collateral damage in case of war. There is almost no population along Karakoram & Aksai.
Anything within 50-60 km area will face Arty strikes from both sides. Even our Pinakas will be in action.

True.. we need numbers.. let the later iterations be more refined.. the production shouldn't be held up..

Its for Chinki fanboys

Little drones with little capacities. There are a few divisions worth of troops there on either side. Either they will need a few thousand of those drones to make a noticeable effort or they can do things normally for lesser costs.

I worked in logistics. Drone tech is not ready for serious work. Even Amazon with its resources has not been able to reliably use drones for last mile delivery. Always - old methods are more reliable and cost effective.

The Chinese flood the Indian Northeast and other states every year by releasing dam water.
Also the Brahmos air-launched version has a range of 500 km.
What your are thinking of is simply unreasonable, damaging dams will also put civillian population at risk, and thus would create a problem for us, sanctions and not to mention the retaliation by axis nation could even go nuclear.
