I am not sure what your training is but I am very sure rule 101 is study the enemy ...That is what we did.Hi,
The Paf almost got away with it the first time---let the enemy come in and get out---even though the enemy had DECLARED INTENT TO STRIKE in advance---.
what should have been considered an ACT OF WAR by India on Pakistan---Paf inteionally took it as a violation of LOC---and so did the DSG ISPR.
But neither did the Paf and nor did the ISPR expected the angry reaction from pakistani public from all floras of life---. They literally got smacked hard by the public---.
For that reason---they had to re-think their strategies because they found out that the Pakistani public had gotten thru their lies and deceit---and demanded actions---.
Even though the Air Chief Marshall was instructed by the PM ahead to time to give no leeway to the enemy---he opted to play with a lackadaisical attitude just like everything was running like always---.
The reaction of his officers in the control room was like ordinary---no urgency visible---no visible action and confrontation plan ahead of time.
Actually the ACM and his team had no concept that any violation after the enemy's intent to strike action across the LOC is not a violation of LOC or international border---but it is an Act Of War---.
Nobody in the pakistani air force war room had any idea of the circumstantial change that had taken place after the Indians had declared intent to strike---. They had been living in the time of Nawaz---Zardari---Musharraf and the 90's.
No more---. Things have to change---. Order of operation has to change---the perception has to change---.
If one wing of the military is not informed of any action---and they have not been informed---once they find out about any coming action---they will have to be prepared and be ready to fly support---even though they had not been asked for---.
The ideology of " I am My Brother's Keeper " would be upfront and foremost---.
Next rule is to stick within rules...The rule was to show India as an aggressor! If we had shot down their plane they wouldnt be announcing that they violated international laws and putting themselves in the spotlight! This gave us ticket to show we are just replying in self defence.....
Now day 1 set precedence that they came and violated international LOC - they claimed it themselves with pride!
Now day 2 showed self defence...
Had they shot down the indian plane on day 1....would the indians still gain the stage that they violated anything? No they would have spun some story that they were violated and their plane shot down!
THIS is called diplomacy! You need to get used to the fact that you are no longer a uniform man and thus are not told of the inner secrets of what our forces are ACTUALLY planning!
