I not said that commercial jets are not checked properly but they not need to do tasks which fighter jets are required to do and multitasking is more in fighterjets than commercial planes and they must be fast and have very little time for decision making so if they are unable to get information and make maneuvers within time they will fail in combat.
My friend, even the ACM said 2.
That's ok, PAF is not into opening scrap yards, the idiots can keep their wreckage.
You still did not answer my question, what proof do you have that IAF planes we're not fit to fly or they failed in combat
Theres a more optimistic/strategic way of looking at this. INformation is only useful as long as u can leverage it or use it to ur advantage.. who that information is passed on to doesn't make any difference. Pak Mil doesnt boast or count dead bodies laid by our snipers or soldiers. we take pride in achieving victories but not in wasting of enemy lives to reach victory. death is a sad reality even if its enemy's. Pakistan has circumstancial evidence of the second kill and possibly has other Intel and doesnt want to share that intel as it might reveal source of that info. saying things like 'gora masters' or other such degrading statements reflects ur lack of understanding of the way states function.
Sir, kindly update yourself in strategic management of narratives. An impartial western journalist has a reach beyond what any domestic journalist would have in a country with a nationalist mind-set, and in conflicts where national pride reigns supreme, domestic journalists can be perceived as biased or can even be perceived as projecting a state-sponsored narrative abt the conflict. In my opinion the only reason to use a foreign journalist is to reach a broader reader base to be able to effectively project our narrative and our version of the engagement. again, this is a matter of running the state and every decisions pros and cons need to be vetted individually and the action with the most favorable outcome is selected. Its not abt licking someone's boots. there was a time when it could've been said of Pakistani mentality but the current leadership has clearly demonstrated that they do not carry that mindset. besides, Alan Warnes highly respects our air force due to their professionalism and the professional culture AND he is highly respected all over the world so I think i was the most ideal platform to disseminate information through. Until we have a local aviation journalist with similar credentials, we shouldn't blame our leadership of having slave mentality. you cant blame someone for exercising the only option available for attaining a certain result.
The kind of outdated language you are using Sir doesn't help your argument to "update" anything
Press releases makes it official in a way that an unpublished interview does not. I re-read my posts, didnt see any condescending language used - kindly point me in the right direction. However, we as a nation need to stop downplaying ourselves by branding our leaders as slave mentality or gora worshipping and what not. Instead, we need to try to find wisdom in such decisions before pointing fingers. However, I am sorry for having offended you with my language.
I completely agree with you. However I have a question and kindly you dont have to respond if the information I am talking about is confidential: By attacking in broad daylight, I hope the enemy doesnt perceive that as a weakness to not be able to strike at night. I hope PAF is well equipped (at least equally equipped as IAF) to be able to carry out ops after dark.
