:: A precise use of advance and deadly military hardware in the 21st century is an art ::
Iran officially admits to unintentionally shooting down Ukraine’s Passenger Aircraft. Iranian AD operator had failed to identify the target.
In Feb 2019, India’s air force shot down one of its own helicopters as it engaged Pakistani fighter planes in an aerial confrontation in Indian occupied Kashmir (Jammu & Kashmir).
Now let’s observe the difference between an unprofessional and a professional Military force.
In Feb 2019, After the fake surgical strikes of the Indian Airforce at midnight (which has no evidence till to-date that they had killed 300 terrorists rather buzzing-out from the combat theatre after seeing the opponent force), the Pakistan military decided to choose the daytime for its air offense next day. Pakistan Airforce went into the Indian controlled territory and bombed their military installations, shot-down Indian jets in the broad daylight and took one of IAF pilots as POW.
In such an intense battlespace environment, without downing any civilian aircraft or engaging with any non-military targets, PAF successfully achieved all of its military objectives.
In Sept 2019, exactly before the Pakistani PM’s speech in the UNGA, Pakistan F-16 jets intercepted Delhi-Kabul Spicejet (126 passengers on-board). The Indian establishment through the aviation authority had deliberately assigned the civilian aircraft with a military call-sign that entered into Pakistani airspace (mother of all false-flag).
That would have been disastrous for Pakistan if its air defense had accidentally shot down the target in haste without properly identify it. But an alert Pakistan Airforce fighter intercepted the civilian aircraft and escorted it till the Afghanistan airspace. It was the professionalism of the PAF that not only just avoided the trap but also saved the lives of the onboard passengers (including Indians).
Another perspective
The United States has taken-out the top Iranian commander who had led all the major operations across the region for more than two decades. General Qasem Soleimani and his team six were the brainchild of all those strategies which were developed to counter the US, Saudi and Israeli influence and proxies in the region. With comparison to this level, Iranian strikes were just a face-saving for the Iranian regime. Americans have done critical and unbearable damage to Iran’s top military brass. It was indeed a big embarrassment for Iran. It’s the beginning of a new war in the region that is more dangerous than the existing ones. For the past four years, Iranian proxies were specifically targeting ISIS and Israel objectives under the command of Qasem Soleimani. In context to this, Israel main objective was to neutralize him. However, Israel was reluctant to do the job alone because of the fear of retaliation from Iran in the consequences of direct involvement. That was the core reason for utilizing US military power and resources. The United States should call back Its forces from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Iraq, and Afghanistan. Also, other parties should immediately withdraw their support to mercenaries’ elements.
