Best defense for North East is to make it self sustainable for 10 days intense fight while Indian army opens up another front along Sino-indo border. And it seems that's what IA is doing. Rafales, aakash Sam and bhramos will be big deterrent to PLA and PLA-AF. We will also have second aircraft carrier /CBG one each for Karachi and Malacca Strait.I thought Nehru had ordered to vacate Assam, (Jorhat and Brahmaputra valley) in 1962 . Had the Chinese not withdrawn Nehru would not have halted anywhere North of Calcutta.
Today, India's North-East has a weak link called Chicken's Neck. If you can ensure that it is not lost then India's North-East is not lost.
It is difficult to conduct defense of India's North-East via Sittwe. Good trade can be done though.
Porkis lacks in air power as well as navy while PLA-AF will be same situation as India is now with Russian bvrs while IAF would be using meteor and Israeli elta countermeasure.
