In 1965 IAF had numerical and technological superiority yet they were unable to attain air dominance. In 1971 they had the same advantage yet in West Pakistan where things were a bit matched they were unable to attain air superiority. There losses in the two wars were much greater than PAF. What makes you think they shall attain the same this time?
Air Superiority is not attained with just 4.5 generation fighter but with pilot skills, better ground maintenance, better training and how quickly an airforce can make available its fighters for next mission. If you have an impartial look at the state of affairs of the two airforces except for availability of better fighters nothing is in favor of IAF.
As far as surgical strikes are concerned let me assure you that if such a stupidity is done by IAF you will get PAF response even before your planes have landed at their air bases. What makes you think PAF has not prepared such plans.
All fighters when used according to their abilities and handled skilfully are very good weapons and can cause damage. Stop giving the impression that only IAF is capable of carrying out surgical strikes PAF has the same capablity.
Our nuclear doctrine is quite clear and when our existance shall be threatened we shall use the weapon we have at our disposal. It is up to the national security council to decide when and how to use nuclear weapons. In the end it shall be the President who shall give the final go ahead. Even when US bombed Japan it was the US President who authorized the action. I don't think he was insane. It was what was thought necessary at the time and was done. If Pakistan thought the same we shall do it.
I clearly accept the fact that IAF me with some losses during the 65 & 71 wars, but u should understand that u are talking about something that has happened 4-5 decades before..... but its a completely different scenario now, and do you think any country will be sitting like ducks without rectifying their weaknesses for 4-5 decades that's nearly half a century that's stupidity.our standard has grown alotmove on guys.
and about the surgical strikes yes u may be right every sovereign nations would sort out a plan to guard its ground from enemies....and you should understand that no nation would wage air strike blindly without and additional plans......
As for the nuclear doctrine i think your arsenal of nuclear weapons would be nullified once our missile shield is installed ...as you know that one is already under development.that would leave you to deliver the nukes by air..that's hard u see our AWACS will detect u well before u enter into our territory. and be torn appart.
