You nailed it, brother.....................Anyone ever wonder why and how the maximum number of spies are caught serving the IAF?
if navy got top of the line ships and plenty of numbers,this task could be done,Sea blockade is very difficult. I would not bank on it.
POK-China route is easier to cut.
Indian armchair Generals have a tendency to be over-optimistic.
Pakistan also has land routes to the West. Remember the way some Indians are hell bent on pissing off Russia, I would not be surprised if Pakistan gets supplies via central Asia.
This is why I recommend splitting our air assets and distributing them. We can't put all our eggs in one basket, definitely not the IAF basket.Anyone ever wonder why and how the maximum number of spies are caught serving the IAF?
Give me examples of successful shipping blockade from history. Analyze those and then give me your data.if navy got top of the line ships and plenty of numbers,this task could be done,
if others are talking like fake generals then you are talking like fake analyst,
if indian navy and indian military acts like a p***y few hundreds miles of indian shores then forget about being a superpower no one gonna even call you a regional power,
are those powerful ships and aircraft carriers are for decoration,
then sri lanka and bangladesh navy along with paki navy gonna challenge you and chinese navy all they got to do is to call them.
usa did this task during cuban missile crisis against soviet navy.Give me examples of successful shipping blockade from history. Analyze those and then give me your data.
I have already told you that multi-country blockade of a very poor country like Yemen is only partially successful.
Pakistan has support of big actors. And I caution you, do not count on support of Uncle Sam.
A Su-30 can fly from Jamnagar and cover the entire coastal area of Pakistan and come back on internal fuel. So a Carrier is not needed. A carrier only presents a lucrative target for the enemy.
Use of carrier is to secure shipping lanes far from Indian shores, where shore based aviation cannot reach.
I like your logic. Similar to "We will eat grass but develop nuke for sure".IAF indirectly asking more funds through scare tactics,Next Navy and finally Army also follow.
Yes we must increase our defence budget as par with China(4 times of India's def budget) then only world recognize&respects India.Only power respects power.
Exactly, bombardment of ports is more important than blockades. Ships can't offload heavy equipments without port cranes. Let the ships be stuck in water, then torpedo them at will.@salute,
Rather than blockade, better option is to destroy ports and other infrastructure close to ports. This will slow down things. As I said PN ships will be history. But just destroying PN ships is not enough.
The para-military is also defence expenditure. Military and para-military pension is also defence. You cannot create novel categories and say this is not defence.Wrong again ours is 2% (quote if u have authentic data) of GDP.
NO, country IS made of people for the people and by the people.If people morale is high 300 millions become 'Americans' and RULE THE WORLD. If people's morale is shit 200 mn become Terrorists&beggars aka Porkis.
See MORALE is important.Morale
same thing china is far from pakis shore,
dont know what you mean by this.Do India has "whatever it takes" attitude. Not yet.
your argument of destroying the ships is pointless because its just for slowing things down and after that you dont know, as you saying its not enough,Rather than blockade, better option is to destroy ports and other infrastructure close to ports. This will slow down things. As I said PN ships will be history. But just destroying PN ships is not enough.
then your opposing argument is about losses,India has a remarkably defensive mindset. A string of losses will bring our leaders back into their shell.
by the super duper ships did not meant some star wars like ships, lol,@salute, either it will be full scale war, or there will be no war.
I do not agree with your idea of blockade with some super duper ships.
A blockade will cause full scale war - 100% certain.
The arguments do not matter. Logic matters. It is not a question of I say this and you say that.
The forces that have been keeping Pakistan alive for last 20 years cannot be very friendly to India. And it is not China alone. China is just one of the actors. I would call China a copycat of USA.
Isn't it strange that India a nation which tried to prevent wars and be a good boy has no allies and Pakistan actively involved and always up for sale has many? Much if this can be traced back to India's involvement in the failure of a non aligned movement and failure of politicians.Not necessary that there will be a "world war" as a result of south asian war. India can neither expect nor plan for a world war. @LETHALFORCE is correct that a two front war will quickly change India's nuclear stance.
Israel will not fight on India's behalf. Pakistan is still in Uncle's sphere of influence. If this change (when USA and China are real blood enemies), then maybe.
