Mr.Araz, what preventing skeptics from moving on is PAF/ISPR silence on whole issue. They have not denied the rumors!.
Several facts which are agreed upon by everyone. 3 AWACS were present on the same base on the day of attack. One was airborne. Other 2 resting in the same hangar. One suffered a damage, what about the 3rd awacs which was present in the Hangar? That mystery Awacs is generating a hell lot of rumors.
4th aircraft is for training purposes was at chaklala on that day. 5th Awacs is a myth which was blown away on the day of attack. Can any one tell me who believed we have 3 Awac plus 1 training aircraft? We all believed that PAF got 4 AWAC plus 1 training aircraft after renegotiation the deal but still in media the deal is quoted a Billion dollar deal and on that faithful day we came to know the original deal was of 3+1 and not a word come out what was the price after renegotiating, so here we see a gap which can be exploited by rumor mill what happened to rest of money if deal was not a 1 billion dollar and no official figure on the price comes afterward,see how much misinformation PAF/ISPR has spread around?
To top it all, PAF spokesperson changed his statement 3 times in 2 days time. Everyone emphasizing on the 2nd Awac which can be repaired,,, but not about the 3rd Awacs which is why we skeptics are still believing there is cover up job of some kind happened!
u are wrong on all accounts !!
below are some of the details of the attack on kamra, separating facts from fiction and the bs that has been spread on this forum. still i have not included all the details specially about the severity of damage sustained (still the intelligent members can make out the actual position on the ground regarding the true nature of the damage). regardless all of details below are a fact :
-their are/were four awacs (saab) and one training ac. that brings the no. of saab 2000 to 5 in PAF inventory.
-as i said in one of my earlier posts, on the day of the attack their were three ac parked in one hanger and one ac parked in a separate hanger.
-now it is the bigger hanger with three saab ac parked inside that got hit.
-no saab ac was air born at the time of the attack, as the terrorists waited for the last ac to complete its training sortie and land and get parked in the hanger, before launching the attack. that is the reason why the hanger door was 1/3rd open and a refuel bowser was parked outside the hanger. which incidently was the first thing that was hit and blown up. once again we did suffer damage.
-the one awacs in the other hanger never got touched as the terrorists never made it that far.
-the terrorists also knew and targeted the air crews debriefing room and destroyed it to a large extent the only reason why the air crew survived was for the fact that after a long sortie they were hungry and were having snacks in the tea bar. they could hear the terrorists.
-the no of the terrorists was/is alot more than what has been reported.
-preliminary investigation (as i had reported earlier in one of my post) has found that the terrorists handler/ring leader was from around these parts and some months ago had rented a home in the village, in ramzan the local masjid was full of people sitting for atiquaf and the ring leader informed the imam masjid that a few of his relatives who are from tabligi jamaat would like to spend the atiquaf in the village mosque. and that is how they never got picked up in the sweeps that were conducted by PAF security personal, specially after the got a warning alert of an impending attack.
-it was c-130 fitted with flair that was ordered to get airborne from chaklala (and remained airborne till the completion of the whole operation) played the most pivotal role in locating the terrorists. it basically directed the whole operation.
-by the time the news of the attack got aired on the electronic media, the operation was already over with killing/capturing of all the terrorists inside and out side the base.
-the role of dsg is over played and infact it was due to their failure that this attack was able to penetrate the defenses.
