Ambala to station first squadron of MMRCA fighters

[manojb]

It means we can blow it up with cruise missiles without getting a single fighter airborne without Ambala finding out what really hit it. Modern warfare has moved on.. Don't expect F-16s to come and bomb ambala, they can do so by launching Ra'ads 350kms away.

How many raads reqd to blew airbase?
Do you think raad can be intercepted by sam?

You will become bankrupt before taking Ambala cantonment down with CMs.

You do realize that Nuclear option is the last resort and even if you do attack, and only 1 or 2 nukes are exchanged, what action will world take against you. Imagine of sanctions and economic blow back.

They may take away your nukes after that and no one will support you as you don't have No First Use policy.

So a nation will think many times for resorting to nukes and rather ask third party involvement for ceasefire.

Exactly Pakistanis to think the nuclear bomb is their great equaliser that counters all of india's conventional superiority but in that sense it would only work if Paksitan was willin to use it during a coventional conflict and escalate the war to a nuclear one. This action would almost ensure the annihilation of Pakistan and of not total the at the very least a barren wasteland. Such an action would be without morality or proffesionalism. The nuclear weapon cannot be regarded as "just another weapon in the arsenal" it is a weapon of last resort, a weapon that rules out nuclear strikes on Pakistan but not a weapon to be used when the Pakistani generals feel they can't win.

Does that extend to tactical nukes ?

 

[Abingdonboy]

But it isn't the Paksitani people's fault- this is what they have been fed their entire lives, that India's superiory counts for nothing because they Pakistan now has a nuclear weapon.

actually terrorists are more than enough to target their bases....

A nuclear bomb tactical or not will meet the First condition of NFU, after that it will be gods will!

Yes buddy. Pakistan's tactical nukes development for stopping Indian blitz attack will be considered as nuclear attack on India so No First Use Policy won't be valid anymore. That's why Tactical nukes don't have that much significance and are more dangerous as it main start chain reaction to multiple times high yield Nuke attack.

Only thing that is useful is that if used once and resulting of stopping of aggression, countries initiates third party dialogue/ ceasefire etc. but the window will be very small.

You are a tin horn and you amply display your ability and expose your petty knowledge base every time you open your mouth.

Let's examine Pakistan's nuclear thresholds and then you can comment further:

A Pre-emptive Response Threshold (PRT) may be evoked against Indian actions that may be premeditated, pre-emptive, incautious and accidental or events spiraling out of control. These strikes may invariably be launched on Indian territory and may take the form of nuclear strike on Indian armed forces, cities and economic and communication centers. The response may even be undertaken due to preparatory engagement of targets inside Pakistani territory, threatening strategic and forward assembly of Indian troops, on escalation of nuclear alert status or even an accidental or rogue firing of Indian nuclear missiles.

An Early Response Threshold (ERT) may result in a nuclear retaliation during the early stages of Indian offensive after the international border has been crossed. Early nuclear response may be resorted to when sensitive locations (important towns/cities etc close to the international border) of psycho-social and communication/economic importance are threatened or captured. It could also be the combined resultant affect of an existential extreme political and economic situation, exacerbation of which is blamed on India and may be undertaken by a government under intense public pressure.

In a Delayed Response Threshold (DRT) the nuclear strikes may be undertaken only after saturation of the conventional response. Evoking of such a response may vary according to the peculiar geographical lay of international border or contiguity of various sensitive locations to the international border and may even take the form of certain imaginary lines drawn on the map.

Finally, the Accumulative Response Threshold (ART) may be evoked if India initiates a graduated application of force. In such a scenario, a naval coercion gradually escalated to blockade coupled with graduated conventional selective air and ground strikes on economic targets, communication infrastructure, politically sensitive locations and military targets are undertaken. The accumulative destructive effect of such conventional strikes may evoke either an early or a delayed nuclear response depending on the summative effect of destruction that has taken place.

On the contrary thats mere rhetoric - a Nuke isn't just a Nuke ! A tactical weapon & a strategic weapon are world's apart.

But it is a nuclear weapon tactical or of deterrence, it really will not matter. Actually i think it is enough to use any of your specific nuclear enabled assets to start nuclear war..

For Pakistan, there apparently is no difference between use of tactical nuclear weapons or tactical use of nuclear weapons. It is the target which needs neutralization for which relevant yield may matter.

 

[newdelhinsa]

Yes, it is clearly statute in declared nuclear doctrine of India.

 

[Gessler]

For Pakistan, there apparently is no difference between use of tactical nuclear weapons or tactical use of nuclear weapons. It is the target which needs neutralization for which relevant yield may matter.

But wasting nukes to chase low-value targets is a no-brainer and a waste of money and resources.

 

[Splurgenxs]

This is similar to justifying the application of a non nuclear ICBM. If an ICBM gets launched and a nuke gets slung,it dosent mater if its non nuclear or tactical respectively.

Nukes and ICBM are symbols of the final threshold. Not even America can cross i without sending serious shortwaves across the globe.

It will be game over for Pakistan after that.

You are a tin horn and you amply display your ability and expose your petty knowledge base every time you open your mouth.

First mind your language and be civil. You didn't understand my point and you started your rants and started same old copy paste job.

All these options are the procedures and tactics. what I explained was what happens after your nuke attack and war ceases and dust settles down.

I can also put India's policy too but I don't derail thread with off topic rants and insults.

Well nothing can be expected from you when civility is considered.
