Especially since, supposedly only JF-17s were used in that op. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwaitwkski Posted February 28, 2019 Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 Seems all the wreckage fell behind Pakistani lines so they get to control the information on it. Both sides agree two planes went down but disagree on if it was a wipe or a tie. I have only seen evidence of one downed Mig-21. Until i see otherwise I am going to assume the Mig was tailing something into the Pakistani side. It got shot down in the process but maybe it got a kill before it went down.

Mighty_Zuk Posted February 28, 2019 Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 Seems like an AMRAAM that went down. Only the F-16 can fire the AMRAAM in the PAF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collimatrix Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 Are there any indications of what the Chinese government is doing? They surely don't want a major war on their borders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xlucine Posted March 4, 2019 Report Share Posted March 4, 2019 This may turn out to be very significant: Quote Washington wants to know if Pakistan used U.S.-built jets to down Indian warplane ISLAMABAD/SRINAGAR, India (Reuters) - The United States said on Sunday it was trying to find out if Pakistan used U.S.-built F-16 jets to down an Indian warplane, potentially in violation of U.S. agreements, as the stand-off between the nuclear-armed Asian neighbours appeared to be easing. https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-india-kashmir-usa-pakistan/us-wants-to-know-if-pakistan-used-us-built-f-16-jets-to-down-indian-warplane-idUKKCN1QK0CV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xlucine Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 Pakistan found a sub: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=2950969591583426 Looks like a snorkelling SSK (note the splashing behind the masts), which isn't the hardest thing to find. They're trying to imply it's a scorpene, but the reference images provided don't look like a great match (the masts appear to be more side-by-side on the scorpene, whereas the sub detected looks to have them in a line). I'd guess it's a kilo, so only an 80's vintage 877 design but still capable of launching cruise missiles Belesarius 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
