Indian army looks strong only on paper, says Indian newspaper

LTTE trained by Indians were the first suicide bombers in this region in the modern history.

Go check your facts first.
Hey Chinese Bandwagon even during ww2 Japanese pilots acted as
Kamikaze (神風?, [kamikaꜜze] ( listen); "divine wind" or "spirit wind"), officially Tokubetsu Kōgekitai (特別攻撃隊 "Special Attack Unit"?), abbreviated as Tokkō Tai (特攻隊?), and used as a verb as Tokkō (特攻 "special attack"?), were suicide attacks by military aviators from the Empire of Japan against Allied naval vessels in the closing stages of the Pacific campaign of World War II, designed to destroy warships more effectively than was possible with conventional attacks. During World War II, about 3,860 kamikaze pilots died, and about 19% of kamikaze attacks managed to hit a ship.[1]
The first known modern suicide bombing attack occurred in Lebanon in 1981 during a civil war between Christian and Muslim militants [source: PBS]. A lone Shiite suicide bomber struck the Iraqi embassy in Beirut.
In India-
To counter the superior numbers of the Chola dynasty empire's army in the 11th century, suicide squads were raised by the Indian Chera rulers. This helped the Cheras to resist Chola invasion and maintain the independence of their kingdom from the time of Kulothunga Chola I. These warriors were known as the "chavers".[42][page needed] Later, these suicide squads rendered service as police, volunteer troop and fighting squads in the region. Now their primary duty was to assist local rulers in battles and skirmishes. The rulers of the state of Valluvanad are known to have deployed a number of suicide squads against the ruler of Calicut.
Before vomiting something check the facts, I have not included various other incidents. Go figure
 
so they are paper tigers :lol: zhilaohu (紙老虎) @Chinese-Dragon

I quote this

Wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men. It is the spirit of men who follow and of the man who leads that gains the victory.

India holds a depth in man power and reserves of personnel and equipment which means India can absorb Pakistani attacks and even take losses of tanks and artillery and still field reserve tanks (1500+) in the battlefield. Pakistani reserve tanks are 300-400.
In this case, Pakistan's safest bet is to launch offensives into India to if the war breaks out and hold those positions till the end of war to get a solid footing on bargaining end.

I thought we never launched a strike.That's what the thread is about isn't it ? The mechanics of the why's & how's? What're you going on about?
