The Kashmir conflict 2025.

No cope cage. Maybe it's just a show of force? Otherwise Pakistani army is unprepared for ground war.

One other thing to watch out for is that IAF is probing location of Pakistan SAMs with loitering drones. Once they neutralize air defense they can potentially cripple fighter assets before they even take off.

BS “J-20 is not stealth” Dhanoa was their air chief at some point.

I sure hope the Indian brass didn't get high on their own supply of copium.

Mirage 2000 down by Indian AD,

Last time it was shooting their own helicopter in 2019. It's becoming Indian tradition to shoot down their own aircraft now?

Can't wait to see some kill markings of Rafale on the Pakistan J-10C right now. I wonder how long before PAF will make the decal for the victory marking for the J10C.

Yesterday I seriously believe that the fighter shot down in Akhnoor was indeed an Indian fighter and was the result of friendly fire from an Akash:

If the Indian's information is correct that the Akash was active at Akhnoor, it is very likely that it was an Indian fighter that was shot down.

The first 12 seconds is of the fighter jet being shot down at the scene and India has not yet released any more footage of it.

What's the point of buying weapon that you can't use against your main rival?

It's called an upgrade. Who wants to bet that the Indian SAM systems will shoot down their own Rafale next time?

1 Rafale launch rail, a video clip shot in dark, the surrounding is a village/town.

2 M88 engine in an open farm field, two bystanders dead from a second explosion.

3 Drop tank in a front yard, BBC etc. reported Franch origin pieces, Indian TV reporter says more pieces around.

1,2 almost certain Rafale, looks different location, I am not familiar with Indian location names.

3 either Rafale or Mirage, the drop tank matches Rafale's

-----------
4. Hill rock crash site with uneject seat, MiG-29 certain
5. Woods crash site, two pilots are safe according to locals, likely Su30 because of dual seat,
6. Black nose dome, engine wreckage, Mirage 2000 likely,

Martin Baker count goes up 5, minus 2 from F18, very likely 3 French losses from India, no claim of loss from the Pakistan side.

Just wanted to point out that 3 seats should be counted for the F/A-18.

1 for the Finnish F/A-18C, and 2 for the USN F/A-18F.

So, if indeed 3 Rafales were splashed, then there must be an IAF pilot who was KIA on impact or the seat did not work correctly...
