I'm aware of each and every thing you just said. I was just comparing on one to one basis. Btw, with the induction of their new SAM's ------- ADS + AAD ( Python-5 + Derby + Ashwin) / ABM + PAD/PDV (Arrow + Prithvi) guided by Elta (GreenPine) & Swordfish........ What do you think will happen to Abdali, Gauri-1, Shaheen-1, Gauri-II, Shaheen IA, Shaheen II, Babur, Ra'ad?
Hmmmm...... I haven't even mentioned what they are doing with linking their Fighter platforms into the above detection network. It doesn't bode very well for our half-baked offensive doctrines. Or, does it?![Blink :blink: :blink:](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/cute/blink.gif)

India is building its airforce as a "strategic force" that can be deployed away from the homeland. Fighters like Su-30MKIs are there for long range, high-intensity missions.
Pakistan, on the other hand, see its airforce as a "tactical level" power. PAF's job would be to defend Pakistani skies and provide CAS to Pakistan military over battle-ground...
PAF's offensive role would be limited. PAF will not be going for deep strike-missions hundreds of km inside india..
Our "strategic" force lies mainly in our missile program....
Abdali, Gauri-1, Shaheen-1, Gauri-II, Shaheen IA, Shaheen II, Babur, Ra'ad, Nasr etc provide Pakistan military with the means to hit enemy far away from the mainland Pakistan....
