Actually there are problems in communication links between the F-22 and other aircraft.

So the F-22 has its own unique stealth datalink, the F-35 has another unique stealth datalink, and the other aircraft and systems use Link-16.

The F-22 at least originally could receive but not send Link-16 data. This is "solved" by using modified U-2s as a conversion gateway.
Kinda like how PAF uses Saab 2000s for Link-17

The crazy thing about this story is how it proves how awful the planning was. When the first shootdowns were verified, I asked “Can the planning really be so incompetent?”, I was met with answers along the lines of “don’t be surprised”

So basically they just took the Zhuhai PL-15E placard at face value and made absolute zero contingency planning around it. This is astounding because even on this forum of amateur enthusiasts the 150km advertised range was met with great skepticism and was assumed to be a big understatement to hide the true range, or some kind of export gimping. From credible Chinese rumours and US statements that PL-15 outranged AIM-120D, there was a strong possibility of exceeding that range one way or another.

From 2019:

I actually found the above link in a quick Google search that pointed to a post on the war thunder forum, so the Indian planning couldn’t even bother to exceed war thunder players.

Do all kids learn that the rice paper is edible by trying to peel it off for a few minutes, giving up and just eating it anyway assuming, what’s the worst that can happen?”

You don’t understand Indian logic.

Based on Indian logic, Chinese arms are all ripoffs of Russian weapons. Having acquired Russian weapons for around 60 years the Indians are familiar with how Russians inflate the stats for their weapons from time to time. If the R-77 can inflate its range to 100KM by tampering with altitude and relative velocity of target, why couldn’t the Chinese knockoff do the same? In fact the Chinese knockoff probably has worse stat inflation because Chinese are naturally dishonest and only peddle junk.

Is there a thread or post where this is being discussed in more detail?

There is some additional discussion in the J-10 thread.


J-10C squad under coordination from AWACs scored kill against J-20 for the first time.

Local media now reports Pakistan Airforce activities over Skardu, Bahwalpur, Sargodha and some other religions along the LoC.
Indian economic times also reports massive air activity over Indian occupied Kashmir.
and Airspace closed over Pakistan and Indian Kashmir.

Tell me they are not stupid enough to try a 2.0… I doubt that PAF will allow them to save face like they did on May 7th…

On the plus side it may end up depleting PAF’s stock of PL-15s.

Is Modi stupid enough to spit on Trump's face by breaking "his peace" and humiliate him publicly...

Oh boy, Pakistan is going to receive active US Intel on Indian military activities when Trump hears about it lol

Being the jealous manchild he is Trump is probably itching for F-16 to get some
action that isn’t Russian Gerans. He’ll probably expedite F-16V upgrade and AIM-120D deliveries to Pakistan to get additional Rafale kills.

Unreal, what is the indian side thinking?
Indian planes took off from Srinager, got close to kargil, got close to the Chinese border near laddakh and who knows where they went next.
Airtraffic into china is still going over northern pakistan while Indian kashmir is dead.
Its August 5th so I guess they are 'celebrating' taking kashmir citizens rights away? Abolishing 370
