Road entering Aksai Chin

At this rate, india will have overwhelming logistical advantage over China.

Wangchuk comes across as reasonable in this interview.

something i like to know is , can IA / IAF target their rail lines . take out rail bridge pillars etc .

more i think more it seems like months long war will be suicidal for chinese .

Not as easy as we think, very well connected road network into Tibet now.....but advantage they have is huge replacement rates. We need to catch up on scale of arms production and ability to improvise counter measures at battle speed like Ruskies. In any case POK first to take to cut that direct connection.

Do our ad system can handle the large scale attack, which was done by Iran .....
1. First attcked with drones , when ad system is busy ,then attcked with missile,

this is a chinese road . tunnel they build for this is 2nd highest altitude , very close to shinku la tunnel in ladakh which i think is now the highest in world

sure true but u still need troop rotation , large amount supplies being brought in to TIbet . its not like there are any factories in Tibet itself.

road transport dont have the kind of load capacity like rail does. transporting something heavy like tanks via road will be slow . if the road network has bridges over gorges then thats also a problem for chinese.

This part of the world is not flatlands like Middle East mate.

Last month, the Centre had asked central intelligence agencies to deploy more intelligence officials along the LAC to keep an eye on the brazen aggression shown by the PLA amid frequent border skirmishes and transgression bids by them

Amid the ongoing military standoff in Ladakh, the PLA had attempted incursions in Arunachal Pradesh’s Yangtze in the Tawang sector in December 2022 leading to a clash between the troops of the two nations that had left around 20 Indian soldiers injured. The clash occurred after over 500 Chinese troops crossed the LAC and started vandalising Indian military posts. The Indian army, however, foiled the transgression bid

Only Indian troops gets injured in Indian news reports.

Telegraph is the OG leftist newspaper when Times of India & Hindustan Times were considered centrist.

If this happens (unlikely, funding issues) China either has to push few more IBGs to Tibet or risk loosing dominance on the border.

govt is silently pushing for mutual deescalation

India-China Border conflict

Some issues that date back to 2013, so that means not all issues date back 2013 some maybe of 2020 i think now only depsang 2013 , demchok 2016 issue remaining . calling depsang 2013 legacy issue isnt exactly 100% truthful . officially rest of places - galwan,gogra are supposed to be...

You have too much confidence in Chinese, without realising that if they loose once, their prestige is in the dust. Chances of them loosing are greater now than 10 years back. Our logistics, our guns and our military management is far superior than theirs. Theirs is based on copied and stolen technology which fails at the critical time.

There is exactly zero chance of any Chinese attack over Himalayas succeeding.

Anyone who even begins to think China can succeed in a war they wage over Himalayas has zero knowledge of warfare.

 

[Hari Sud]

Now that the second component of strike Corps is getting ready for Ladakh, Chinese have to watch out. Any times Chinese try to grab an inch of Indian land, the strike corps can go ahead capture theirs and in addition destroy their infrastructure to weaken them in Tibet. Also they can do nothing as 80% of their forces are in the east. These cannot be moved as moving these will result in an Existential threat to the communist party rule.

1962 says hi and not to mention never-ending salami slicing. The day they see weakness ,they will teach lesson until then it will be built up upon built up.

The incumbent govt rarely comments on Def/NatSec issues. From chinkus at the border to the mysterious 'disappearances' of Khalis and from bumping off handlers in pakiland to the increased CT Ops against Naxals/Maoists - barely a few pressers here and there and that is about it. Even Doklam/surgical strike/Balakot was like that only.
