The rising tension between India and Pakistan has recently turned into missiles and actual air conflicts, while the eyes have been turned into warplanes of the two countries. Pakistani Air Force; He announced that he had dropped 3 Rafale, a SU-30MKI and a MİG-29 fighter aircraft belonging to India, aroused a wide repercussion in military and strategic circles. In particular, the French -made Rafale jets caused controversy about how effective these high -tech aircraft are on the field. It is known that India equipped Rafale from France in 2016 with long -range meteor missiles and advanced radar systems. However, the defense strategy of Pakistan with modern J-10C warplanes from China seems to have seriously pushed India’s air power.

It was thought to be invincible
Pakistan’s aircraft dropped 3 of the French boast and said to be very successful in the Libyan operation 4.5 generation features of Rafale attracts attention. More, it raised the following findings: “India strengthened its fleet by buying 36 Rafale from France. This aircraft is one of the ‘invincible’ aircraft in a way with a meteor missile of 200 kilometers from air to air. However, the J-10C, which Pakistan puts on the field against this plane, draws attention with its modern Chinese technology and long-range missiles. J-10c was the plane that dropped Rafale on the field. Rafale’s performance depends on tactical planning, pilot training and intelligence support. J-10Cs are equipped with supersonic maneuverability and integrated missile systems provide air superiority to Pakistan. “
Intelligence sailed
“How could Pakistan do this?” Answering the question. “In the Chinese PL-15E missile carried by J-10C aircraft. The Indians thought that Pakistan has a 140 km range, which is the export version of these missiles. However, it is understood that China sold it to Pakistan, one of the 300 km range of the PL-15E missiles held in its own inventory. Indian intelligence must have skipped this important detail that Rafale, known for its superior features, could not escape being the victim of J-10C equipped with longer-range air missiles, ”he said.
Here is the power of ‘IAF’
On the other hand, the power struggle between India and Pakistan in the sky is based on technology, integration capacity and struggle doctrine. In Indian fleets, 36 Rafale, approximately 260 water-30mkı, around 60 Mig-29 and nearly 120 domestic production tejas platforms draw attention, while attracting attention, Mirage-2000 and Jaguar planes are still actively used.
PAF provides balance
The Pakistani Air Force (PAF) Belkemig is the JF-17 Thunder, which is developed jointly with China. Fleets include more than 25 Chinese-made J-10c, American F-16s and French Mirage III/V planes. Pakistan uses China-made ZDK-03 and Swedish-made Saab 2000 AEW & C systems for early warning and electronic warfare. Pakistan receives technical education from China and pilot training from Türkiye.
