somebody mentioned PAF's ADA response time was around 3 minutes. But unless we dont have a tracking asset up, it would always be difficult. Thats why an AWACs squadron must be raised at mianwali or shorkot to keep a premptive track of activities inside Indian AirspaceHead SUlaimanki is near Okara, so the nearest airbases for ADA response would be Sargodha or Multan. Sargodha would probably be having the ADA duties for that sector.
2 minutes inside our territory considering that we can track Indian aircraft in Indian airspace as well...so for discussion's sake, let's consider we tracked those IAF aircraft for minutes. Isn't this a slow response by PAF then? Considering that the article doesn't mention that aircraft are scrambled?
What is the ADA response time in peace times like now? I'd guess 5 minutes?
Anyways, maybe just a loss of bearings by the IAF pilots.
