The hydraulic oil stain is the most ugly thing on the plane, as if poor maintenance is done on it. The Myanmar birds had a small nozzle for preventing a spread on the body. Why can't Paf fit it in its inventory.
Or it has a habit of keeping nozy dirty.

I know that, I was questioning his statement/logic that they were paid by US military yet we reduced the numbers due to earthquake.



I keep hearing about this max 10~15 day war scenario, probably this is how long we will last, what stops the enemy to go beyond unhindered for just another week and really shaft us for good?

The assumed life saving sanctions will not have the same impact on the enemy, their economy can sustain them for a lot longer and they will take full advantage of it. Any one who goes to a fight assuming that the moment he starts to go down, spectators will save him from total defeat and absolute humiliation has no right to live.

Depend upon the damage that Pakistan can inflict in conventional war not the duration ..in any future war india goal will be cold start..meaning it will thrust its armour brigades after it decimates PAF..as any airforce through cluster ammunition and gps guided weapons can wreck havoc on invading forces

The days one country can last in a war depend on many factors so even if we say Pakistan can manage 10 to 15 days on a single front it does not guarantee this if this is increased to two fronts or three where the situation will be different.

BTW no country officially posts on what their true war budget is and the number of days they intend to fight.


One can only comment on what is publicly available. The scenarios of Pakistan v/s India are based on two Nuclear powered countries fighting a conventional war and relying on UN to come in for a ceasefire.

However in the the recent past all the wars that we have seen right from the First Gulf War to the War in Yemen UN has not been able to broker any lasting ceasefires. So the 10-15 days is just hypothetical figure.

IMO 15 days is the maximum time Pakistan would give to any country willing to fight a conventional war any thing above that would be Nuclear hence both First strike and Second Strike capabilities have been fully developed.


What India is planning is not Pakistan centric rather it is expansionist colonial policies which are forbidden under the UN Charter hence they need to become one of the VETO powers.

The population of India is not interested to fight against China but they can be rallied in masses against Pakistan as they play the Mother India card.

Starting a war is one thing.
putting an end to it is very different.

The reason india can think of expansion is it's economy.
Start a war, and economy is it's first casualty.

Prolong a war, take it down to street level conflicts and even USA / USSR / Europe couldn't sustain it.
