As per the realist perspective on which this world works, every nation state looks after their own interests. All diplomatic and economic cooperation is subservient to the state's vital national security interests. In seeking to protect its interests and its sovereignty, Pakistan is no different...

There could be a possibility they ejected and set out on foot. The area sounds quite inaccessible, they might have realized that there was a slim chance of being found and could have took it upon themselves to trek to a nearby village/town. They've got their maps with them, would make sense from...

Difference in the explosions can be chalked up to anything ranging from the difference in caliber to the terrain that it is landing in. With those striking a post on a rock face creating a more dramatic explosion that subsides quick whereas those hitting a plainer position with soil creating a...

You speak with a lot of authority on Pakistan. You must have visited regularly, right? Visitors are not expected to abide by local norms, any transgressions on their part are usually excused with someone proficient in English telling them what they're doing wrong. And what is your point about...

No issue!

Every post has underground bunkers and trenches. The point I was contesting was that the above surface structures are not concrete as claimed by the member I was debating with.

I am just glad you are able to add in whatever capacity possible. Its always a pleasure having you on board. Thank you. I'm surprised how perceptions to the position at the LOC are often completely contrary to the reality. Hahahaha good times. There was a time when I knew almost the entire 5...

We're in the same boat, there is a chronic lack of civil sense. Our people litter on roads, colour entire cities red spitting paan at any convenient wall, garbage is tossed into any public space until it becomes the local dumping ground. We can't poke points at you for something that we...

I've spent my entire life firing mortars and those look like mortars to me. Lol, if only you knew. We used to fire each other based on the performance of our cricket teams. IA won't tolerate it? Will they complain to my commander? Fwd posts don't work like that. We're less than 100m away. Know...

In that case your friends must have slept through their classes at Dehradhun. This just further reinforces my belief that you know nothing about how things work at the LOC. This type of fire is a daily occurrence. In most cases, the men manning the post being pounded will retreat to their...

Thanks a lot for the kind wishes. I'm still working as a contract employee though. The nation still needs me as long as we are dealing with this COIN situation.

If you confuse that foliage for Swat and those explosions for a "jet strike", I suggest you question whether you should really be offering commentary on the matter to begin with.

He may sing like an angel but he tweets like a god damn three year old!

Alpha Bravo Charlie hi tha bhai. Kiya kamal din yaad kara diye :lol:

A Chinook with a tank hanging underneath is just asking to be fired upon :-)

That is definitely not an ATGM in the later explosions but I don't hear a tank firing in the background either. The round is definitely larger than a mortar. Might just be Fd Arty or a Tank Pillbox as the Indian members claim but getting a tank onto the post is the problem that I see. Might be...

Sure. Okay. Your speculation is as valid as mine.

If you can link the video, I can take a took. Might be referring to an ATGM.

China offers much better terms on their loans. Save for the real force multipliers, I guess Pakistan will simply begin sourcing its arms from elsewhere. There's little notable American tech coming in anyway besides the AH-1Zs.

Frankly, this is the first I am hearing of this. Haven't seen any. Don't know anyone who's seen any. Can't quite understand how its possible. There's only that one article to say that such a state of affairs exists and offers no tangible proof. I'm skeptical, maybe @third eye can comment on the...
