That is why Modi is not jumping on war cry by Trump.. he is buying all weapon he can.. also expediating delivery of already purchased weapons
Which "war cry by Trump" are you referring to ,exactly?


"Trump had also said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was "not in a good mood" regarding the "big conflict" with China. However, both India and China turned down the offer and said that they will bilaterally resolve the issue."

The escalating tension between India and China certainly puts America in a difficult position in relation to Pakistan.

It's certainly would not want to sacrifice the long-standing strategic interests in Pakistan because of a limited border conflict between China and India ,both of whom it sees as long-term strategic rivals.

There have been numerous indications in the past that the pentagon has mechanisms to disable system in the F16s that the PAF currently possesses. The extent of that capability is unknown though.
US will not excercise any such option if India or any country is being threatned. Simply - it will dent their reputation as a arms exporter, no country worth their salt will every import from US. US will excercise this option only if its being threatened by its own plane ; an example A rogue Paki F1 targeting AF -1 ;

That war cry has stopped coming from trump and is now coming from Pompeo
Secretary of State Pompeo stated that the US is moving troops from Europe to the Asia theatre ,to deal with China's aggressive military escalation and spoke of American concern at China's willingness to get into border disputes with its neighbours and its growing territorial ambitions.

Still , that's not near urging a full-scale military attack on China.

i am beginning to realise the most of the indian "influencer" patriots simply assume what other patriots are supposed to do.
no debate, no explanations given, no pros & cons info given to the public so as to make a well informed judgement/decision, and people are expected to telepathically make the "right" choices. This is stupid.

There are some fundamental flaws in our patriotic ecosystem.

it took me three years atleast to make a informed opinion on whether U.S can be trusted or not.

One important point to note is that the mirages are very well equipped to take on the F16s so much so that the paf will not send their F16s after mirages.

How the MKI fares against the F16 is a good question/food for thought.

We should increase the Arsenal of the rafales imho. Building the tejas fleet to support the rafales with common data links is the way to go.

The C5 out ranges the Mica.

Ban will not work.. Google, Facebook, Twitter they don't follow any government order.. they don't even care what US government say.. forget about India.. they are living under impression that they are champion of free speech...
Banning apps on Google Play.. which is itself a leftist company is difficult
Not sure if you understand this much. Your comments are so naive.

If Jio, Airtel and Tata decide to block data transfer from the servers of these apps then google and apple stores are nothing more than neutered dogs in this game.

Even beyond that the NIC has direct access to the tunnels and cables. They can do packet inspection from chinese servers easily. Or better still just throttle all content coming to India from china and all china friendly countries.

It's a really easy game that govts play regularly. Vietnam throttled facebook for months earlier this year because facebook was acting tough against Vietcong. FB had to say sorry.

The extremely simple other thing India can do to force compliance from Apple and Google is to freeze their bank accounts. What will they do then? Give India another lecture on "darr ka mahol"... :pound:

Reading that and his other tweets he it seems clear Mr Jha considers entering into a pragmatic military alliance with the US ,in order to reverse China's violation of India's territorial integrity, a better course of action than what he sees as just passively accepting China's aggression.

Besides ,it's not likely he can put forward an argument , giving both pros and cons, given each tweet is limited to 280 characters. I don't normally bother with Twitter for that reason.

Question. Can the S400 be taken out by Brahmos?
Assuming we get crystal clear coordinates of the location of the target radar system, either by Indian Satellites or US satellite imagery, what is the possibility of firing a salvo to take out the chinks S400?
aside from theoretical possibility, is it possible practically in the theater.

I’m not even going to try to imagine an Apache group flying under the radar to take out the S400 radar systems like they did in desert shield. Although this terrain would be the best environment. For apaches.

quite the opposite, he has been against U.S alliance & import lobby.

He has a defence new portal and a youtube channel, he can make use of those for making a detailed argument, just like how he does on military tech.
