Found this interesting part in this New York Times report from today:


Pakistan retaliated on Wednesday by flying planes across the border into Indian airspace.

While Indian officials have not detailed how Wing Commander Varthaman was shot down, Western officials said they believe he was lured into a trap by Pakistani jets.

They say that after Pakistani jets crossed into Indian airspace, they quickly turned and flew away, tempting their pursuers into an area well covered by Pakistani air defenses, which then hit Wing Commander Varthaman’s plane with a surface-to-air missile.

What about second A/C? Are you not interested in it?
There was no second jet.
Only a MiG 21 & an Mi-17 chopper which crashed.
Whether the chopper was shot or it crashed due to technical fault is not yet clear.

This explains why Pakistan did not release footage of MiG 21 being shot down.
 
What ''western officials''? Who are they? care to share there identity/credentials? NYT is desgracing itself by quoting an ambigous source.
 
BTW Mi17 shot is also embarrassing .. 6 of their airmen were charcoled in broad day light by our jets 100 kms away yet IAF has remain silent on it ;). Downed helicopter pictures clearly suggests that a missile hit it . Big hole clearly visible

Lol. As visible as the second pilot in Pak custody recuperating in the hospital.

Ohh suddenly u now believe ISPR... He clarified that we don't have his body since earlier he clearly said that the second plane wreckage fell at your side of loc.

And what explains why IAF didn't release any proof whatsoever of the F-16 downing?

Pakistan govt has apparently announced that they will arrange an intl media tour to confirm that its inventory of F-16s is fully in tact.

Modi might actually lose the election if exposed to blatantly! Service Chiefs should resign too!
