Operation Sindoor: During Operation Sindoor, the Indian Air Force used both BrahMos and Scalp missiles to destroy the headquarters of Pakistan terrorist organization Jaish -e -Mohammed and Lashkar -e -Taiba. This is so that Pakistan’s Terror Infrastructure can be maximum damaged.

The Indian Air Force also used the BrahMos missile to ruin Part-2 (morning of May 10) of Operation Sindoor (on the morning of 10 May) i.e. Pakistani Military Infrastructure, which were fired with Sukhoi fighter jets. BrahMos of Sukhoi attacked the Pakistani Air Force Noor Khan, Rahim Yar Khan Base, Bholari Airbase, Jokokabad Base and Kirana Hills (close to which Pakistan’s nuclear stock is hidden) with the BrahMos missile. The scalp missile was used through France’s Rafael (Rafale) fighter jet.

India gives a befitting reply to Bunyan-al-Marsus

India launched Operation Sindoor Part-2, the Pakistani Air Force in protest against the Bunyan-al-Marsus operation as the Pakistani Air Force tried to target India’s airbase and important institutions to respond to the attacks on terrorist bases. For this, the Pakistani Air Force attacked with drones and missiles. These attacks included Adampur Airbase and Haryana’s Sirsa base in Punjab, but in time used the Indian Air Force S-400 missile and MRSAM (Medium Range Surface to Air Missile).

According to the information, during the retaliation of Bunayan Al-Merusus, the Indian Air Force also destroyed a Pakistan reconnaissance aircraft AWACS (AWACS) i.e. Air-Barn Early Warning and Control System. It is believed that the Indian Air Force used the S-400 missile for this. This reconnaissance aircraft named Ary was taken by Pakistan from Sweden and was spying of Indian aircraft during the attack on India. This reconnaissance aircraft was killed by S-400 near Noor Khan Airbase.

5 fighter jets of PAK destroyed in Operation Sindoor-2

A few days ago, ABP News had said that during Operation vermilion part, the Indian Air Force had destroyed at least five aircraft of Pakistan. Among them was a reconnant aircraft of Pakistan and a C-130J Super Hercules Military Transport Aircraft. The C-130 aircraft was gutted in the BrahMos missile attack on Bholari Airbase. The loss of AWACS aircraft was confirmed by a former Air Marshal of the Pakistani Air Force.

During Operation Sindoor on the night of 6-7 May, the Indian Air Force dropped two (02) fighters of Pakistan during the dog-fight in the sky. Both these fighter aircraft were JF-17 or a JF-17 and a Mirage. Because these fighter jets fell in the border of Pakistan, so their debris is not found in India. This is the reason why the Indian Air Force is not very confident about the identity of both these fighter jets.

India also harmed Pakistan’s F-16

It is also reported that F-16 fighter jet has also suffered a loss on Jokokabad airbase of Pakistan. Due to the fear of America, Pakistan did not blow these F-16, but F-16 aircraft were damaged in the Indian attack in the hangar of Jokokabad Airbase. During India’s attack, Pakistan used more and more JF-17, J-10 and Mirage fighter jets. Pakistan has prepared JF-17 in its country with the help of China. J-10 is bought from China and Miraj was bought from France in the 80s.

India destroyed 9 terrorist bases

According to the Indian Air Force, a total of 09 terrorist bases in Pakistan were destroyed during Operation Sindoor. Also, 11 airbases of Pakistani Air Force were ruined during Operation Sindoor Part-2. Apart from this, the Indian Air Force targeted the Radar Station in Lahore and Karachi and the Air Defense System (HQ-9) in Lahore and Karachi via Harop and Haropi Loatering Munition (Drone). It was the result of India’s tremendous retaliation that Pakistan raised hands on the morning of May 10 and demanded a ceasefire. In the afternoon, Pakistani DGMO spoke to the Indian counterpart on the hotline and both countries agreed to postpone military conflict.

Indian navy: The deal to buy fighter jets for the Indian Navy was completed between India and France today. Under this deal of about Rs 64,000 crore, France will give India 26 Rafale Marine Aircraft. Of these, 22 will be single seater and 4 twin seater training versions. This pact was approved in a virtual event. India is buying this jet aircraft from the French defense company Dassault Aviation for deployment on INS Vikrant. Defense Minister Rajnath Singh was also present in this event.

Jet aircraft will be delivered after five years

Three weeks after the approval of the procurement was approved by the Cabinet Committee (CCS) on security affairs headed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. According to the conditions, delivery of jets will begin about five years after the deal is signed. In July 2023, the Ministry of Defense approved the deal after several rounds of discussions and the evaluation test of the platform. Under this, the Indian Navy will also get arms system and spare parts from Rafael (Marine) Jet maker Dassault Aviation. This will prove to be a gamechanger in terms of protecting the maritime border for India.

INS Vikrant’s deployment in the Arabian Sea

Significantly, there is an atmosphere of tension between India and Pakistan after the terrorist attack in Pahalgam in Jammu and Kashmir on 22 April. Since then, India put an end to its diplomatic and business relations with Pakistan. Recently, the Indian Navy also deployed its indigenous aircraft carrier INS Vikrant in the Arabian Sea amid growing tension. This shows that India is fully prepared to deal with any possible challenge in the coming time.
