@Peaceful Civilian, I guess u r talking about Zhuk ME, what do you think is inferior about this radar?

20 minutes scramble time!!!!!!!!!!

It was a weather balloon and they detected it and chased it. Impressive work I must say.

 

[Secularpakistani]

I a just thinking how the radar managed to detect the baloon because radars can only detect metal objects.?

Something seems fishy in that incident. It first says:

Early last week, "our radars picked up a UFO near Amritsar which was coming towards India from the International Border with Pakistan"

Then in the next line it says:

The Su-30MKI identified that the object was a weather balloon which was flying with the wind towards the border.

So the object was changing direction? Wow! Then the fooking thing must have been an alien UFO, not a weather balloon!!

Actually what happened

UFO near IB, IAF scrambles Sukhoi-30MKI

NEW DELHI: The Indian Air Force scrambled a Su-30MKI after its radars detected a slow moving unidentified flying object coming towards India from the International Border with Pakistan and in the process, it came close to two civilian flights operating in that area.

The IAF is also looking into an incident where its An-32 transport aircraft was about to land at a close runway at the Delhi airport earlier this week.

Early last week, "our radars picked up a UFO near Amritsar which was coming towards India from the International Border with Pakistan" and a Su-30MKI was scrambled from Halwara air base to intercept it, IAF sources said here.

As the aircraft was being launched, the air traffic was asked to be cleared at heights between 25,000 and 30,000 feet as the UFO was flying at 28,000 feet, they said.

Later on, the Su-30MKI identified that the object was a weather balloon which was flying with the wind towards the border and it returned from there after being airborne for around 20 minutes, they said.

Reports suggested that two civilian planes of Thai Airways and another foreign operator were flying around 10 nautical miles away from the IAF aircraft.

The IAF denied that there was any "near-miss incident" involving its aircraft as it was under positive radar coverage and was cleared for operating in that area.

The DGCA is looking into the incident, sources said.
