Breaking News: China dispatched jets to counter Indian jets

Whatever, it doesn't matter. I would like to see a war because we would be lucky to see a war in our life time. Without war life seems boring!

The thing is that a war between India and China is inevitable. War will take place even if the border issue is solved.

I dont think so. Its not an era of War and no direct war can solve any problem.
 
The battle games between India and China continue on the disputed boundary between the two neighbours, with the two sides flirting dangerously close to an accidental conflict on the 50th anniversary of the 1962 War.

On October 30, the defence brass of the two countries had some anxious moments after nuclear-armed Chinese fighter aircraft were dispatched to scramble Indian jets flying in the Tawang region of Arunachal Pradesh.

Sources say the incidents were reported by the Indian Air Force (IAF) to the defence ministry and a separate report by India's external intelligence agency, the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), was also filed on the affair.

Mail Today has in its possession the report on the incident.

Around 3pm on that day, some IAF jets were on a routine sortie mission in Arunachal Pradesh, when they were picked up on their Lhasa-based radar by the Chinese, senior officials privy to the deliberations following the incident said.

Alarmed by the Indian jets, the brass of the PLAAF, the Chinese Air Force, set off a chain reaction. This resulted in two Chinese Sukhoi-27 jets taking off from the Gonggar air base in Tibet within minutes.

After taking off around 3:04 pm, the Chinese aircraft flew southeast towards the direction of the Indian aircraft. There were some anxious moments on the Indian side when the Chinese aircraft were picked up on the radar at 3:29 pm near Cuona.

Officials say the drama lasted for around 50 minutes and just 30 km short of the international boundary- which is few seconds for a supersonic aircraft- the Chinese fighters, realising the IAF jets had no intention of an offensive move, turned back.

Sources said the RAW report, sent to the government on November 9, noted the unusual activity of the Chinese aircraft, which was described as a reaction of the Chinese against Indian activity in the Tawang sector.

While no actual scramble took place, what is scary about the affair is that the radars lost track of the Chinese aircraft twice while the Indian aircraft disappeared from the radar once. In a hostile situation, these incidents can lead to accidental triggers.

Sources told Mail Today, the Chinese Sukhoi-27 was provided tactical radar support by the 42 Radar Regiment of the PLAAF, which is deployed all over Tibet.

The PLAAF is the largest air force in Asia with close to 1,600 aircraft, and the Russian made Sukhoi-27 is a key strike fighter for the force.

China has been ramping up its strategic assets in Tibet for quick reaction in a war situation.

It already has five operational airfields at Gonggar, Pangta, Linchi, Hoping and Gar Gunsa.

The extension of the Qinghai Tibet Railway line to Xigaze and another line from Kashgar to Hotan in the Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region is also in progress.

Strategically, the Tibet Autonomous Region is pivotal for China's security as it comprises approximately one-fourth of China's land mass, and it continues to have aggressive deployments in the region.

While the new Chinese leadership led by Xi Jinping may not risk a war with India, the chances of a local commander triggering off a conflict cannot be ruled out given the growing intensity of the provocative incidents on the Line of Actual Control.

Mail Today has repeatedly flagged the clear and present danger emanating from China.

What New Delhi needs to do is ensure that a credible mechanism is in place which is operational between the two sides to avoid any accidental action by either side.

The fact is that there is a huge trust deficit between the two countries and a small error at an operational level on the boundary can lead to disastrous consequences for the two countries.

:bounce: :victory: :oops:

1. Chinese Radar picks IAF jet right after jets moved into Arunachal area, they took off in in 4 minutes,IAF detects Chinese Jets at hnearly half hour later, Why?
2. What is the point to send nuclear tipped Jet to counter incursions by IAF jets, did chinese wanted to nuke those Jets.
3. If it was a routine flight into that area, what forced China to react in this manner, something is not told, what it could be?

Only Airforce persons are requested to shed lights on above questions plz.

So China is ever ready for any misadventure of India and Indians and their media is never tired of advocating such adventure on part of India.

funny

Jana whose country is irrelevant in the world stage, except for the times it is minutes from anarchy, feels an obligation to have to comment on things beyond her. We will work out our problems with China in due time but we will never work out our problems with you. Why waste our time and effort with when you have nothing to offer us?

1. Either radars don't give you full result due to the terrain or the radars were simply jammed so that the jets could evade. Lets wait for more details to come out.

2. Nuclear tipped jets were not meant for dog fight, there were may be other reasons still not clear to us. But it surely indicates how serious the showdown could go as the whole country will be engaged in such situation. Kind of blitzkrieg perhaps!

3. It could be something you can easily guess. ;)
 
What the hell are you talking about? lol



And I see a cheerleader with bad grammar.

Forgive them they live in a 3rd world nation. Grammar isn't their top priority; they have better thing to worry about like not getting e.coli or their next meal.
 
What were the IAF aircraft? Were they armed? What would be the outcome if there was a dog fight?

1. IAF jets were airborne, they had better 'Vision', If the Radars were suddenly jammed, jamming source direction could be determined instantly, Still it took 25 minutes to detect jets...... too bad. or some info is not provided.(thats the key).
2. blitzkreg with just two jets? whom do IAF and RAW is fooling?
3. its not for guessing its for deduction logical deduction.

Story is either badly concocted or delibrately made a misleading one.
