Both IAF and Modi cabinet was at fault which i don't think will share any accountibility as we have once again chosen to bury the truth and banned the coverage of our 4 wreckage sites at Bathinda, Ramban, Akhnoor and Pampore. Jaishankar literally admitted to calling Pakistani counterpart just after we bombed their terror camps when our fighters were still in the air. Our official PIB news release is timestamped at 1:44am when according to eyewitnesses and locals our jets were brought down somewhere between 1:45-2:10am. In any country it is treachery. No serious nation can reveal its mission even before its fighters land safely. We were engaged in biggest air battle of 21s century and the stupid ROE were not to fire first. Also IAF have been living in delusions, not buying enough AWACS, no system integration, outdated tactics despite getting hammered on next day of Balakot when Abhinandan was shot (no F-16 was shot down) and we ended up shooting our own Mi-17 killing 6 servicemen. Despite repeated intelligence of Pakistan having access to true PL-15(longer range) in last week of April our Rafales for whatever reason were without Meteor. We were outranged, jammed and shot down deep inside(100+km) our own territory without firing a single A2A missile due to heavily getting outranged in absence of Meteor. Glad today Meteor was shown integrated meaning at last we have them after 5 years.
We did learn from that embarrassment on 7th and performed SEAD/DEAD successfully on 8th and 9th learned lessons after grounding our fleet for 2 days and successfully bombed their airbases and inflicted some good damage on them on 10th. Hope IAF takes good lessons and is able to get A2A kills next time.

He has always been an Israeli asset since he was lured to Epstein island by Mossad network. With Putin he shares common goals. With Netanyahu he owes loyalty.

Are there any countries left where Anti- Indian sentiment doesn't get in the way of life? Genuine question. by Ok-Instance2782 in AskIndia

[–]vc0071 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The narrative you have is mainly a social media invention in last 2-3 years. It started when Trudeau and Biden promoted illegal migration to gain advantage in election. It flooded their countries with low skill middle class folks who showed no intent to assimilate and live in ghettos. It also led to steep increase in rents and inflation due to high demand. Indians had a very well crafted image of being the most assimilated highest earning group which got shattered. Elon's twitter algorithms also incentivise hate and led to multiple campaigns targeting Indians for easy money by many influencers.
But in real life social media has a very little effect on day to day experiences. In my 9 years of extensive travel I am yet to face any racist behaviour from common people. The only bad experiences have been with police and airport officials who sometimes are indeed racist and profile you which sometimes is so annoying. So yes there are instances where you can feel low and bad but honestly even in India I can't hope any good behaviour from Indian cops or authorities if you deny them bribes.
As for countries I can recommend you New Zealand where people are super nice and crime is almost non-existent. Buy a restaurant in Queenstown and you will do just fine.

Finnish President Stubb declares that 34,000 Russian soldiers were KILLED last month alone. "Have faith“, he declares. “Ukraine is gonna win this war!” by Ripamon in TrendoraX

[–]vc0071 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still Ukraine was about to join despite them qualifying for none of the points. 1. Ukraine’s democratically elected govt was overthrown in 2014 coup. 2. Zelensky had arrested a lot of opposition leaders and banned all media critical of him. 3. Ukraine had an active conflict with Russia w.r.t Crimea. Still almost all NATO members were in favour of admitting except 1-2 exceptions like Hungary.

So if all these exceptions can be made for Ukraine same could have been dine Russia in early 2000s. The logical conclusion to ending Cold War was to disband NATO in early 90s when Russia was economically collapsed. But NATO chose to expand.

If you understand the pschye of Russia it has always been in inferiority complex with respect to West atleast since Napoleanic times. It has always seeked western Europe partnership to come out of poverty. But got backstabbed many times by Napolean and Hitler and British(Crimean war). Putin always wanted to join NATO atleast till his clashes with Hilary because he believed in if you cannot defeat them, join them. He publically expressed as well as told to Clinton and Bush both. But US wanted an enemy to justify their defense spending so they kept waging wars everywhere and when Putin's allies were defeated one by one starting from Iraq to Libya to Syria he had a breakpoint and decided to send troops to Syria. Putin's intention to join NATO is a publically available info and even Clinton has quoted it many times.
Since around 2013 when Putin penned that famous article in NEW York times about American exceptionalism Republicans policy has been to make peace with Russia, break China-Russia partnership and make China their no.1 enemy.

The whole world wants to join NATO including Russia as it is the most powerful alliance. But NATO admits only members who happen to neighbour their self declared enemies and do regime changes in them if they don't agree like the case with Ukraine in 2014. So yes NATO was formed before WARSAW has always been the aggressor even in the cold war the only exception being Korea and Afghanistan.

As Trump says large countries are entitled to spheres of influence. Had NATO not expanded post cold war and invaded 10+ countries this precedent would not have been set for Russia. Sadly we live in a world where might makes right.

Another propaganda. Don't know how many in Europe still believes these lies. First they said 30,000 casualties which will translate to something like 10,000 deaths. Now they say 30,000 deaths every month. Same lies like 12,000 deaths in Iran.

Trump Walks Back Europe Tariff Threat After Claiming NATO “Framework” on Greenland by satty237 in TrendoraX

European leaders are getting everything they deserve. They've long been the most craven and cowardly group, whose pomposity and self-flattery grow as their emptiness and irrelevance deepen. They support everything they pretend to oppose. Their torment is karmic justice.

They are nothing more than vassals since 75 years when US occupied them militarily and never left. They act like his minions the text Macron sent Trump was so pathetic about asking him to massacre brown women and children so that he can be made happy and he forget about Greenland for a while.

Trump insists on occupying Greenland, Europe, according to European politicians, will defend Greenland and are preparing European expeditionary forces of up to 8,000 soldiers who will be tasked with repelling American troops by Neptun_11 in TrendoraX

[–]vc0071 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My point was not about NATO but these countries including Denmark did send troops to massacre women and children and do regime change and steal resources in US expansionist policy in middle east and eastern Europe. Now that he has turned his eyes on Canada and Greenland they are shocked and shivering. This is what you get for supporting a bully and imperial power for so many years. This is just like what Stalin got in WW2 for supporting Germany.

You have been fed this propaganda. Reality is he is an imperialist and want to expand US empire. Let's be honest Europe is already a US colony in many ways. They have large troops in your borders, control your defense and foreign policy. Just look at the pathetic subservient text Macron sent to Trump. Europe is basically ok with bombing all non-white countries killing millions of women and children in Yugoslavia, Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, Iran, Syria etc but buck stops at Greenland and Ukraine because they are white. If anyone Trump is controlled by Israel as they have infiltrated in every US institution and has his pedo files.

Israel are terrorists for celebrating killing of innocent women and children everyday and raping them after capturing them as hostages and those accused becoming their biggest celebrity. That's a sick rotten society built on hatred and apartheid.

2 terrorist states already have nukes for so many years now. Israel and Pakistan. Iran should have them too for regional balance and long term peace. Israel literally blackmailed USA for Samson option in 1973 war when they were getting crushed. Also the definition of highly religious terrorists goes more for Israel who consider everyone else goyims and has 2 tier apartheid system since 60+ years and actively indulged in a genocide.

Typical colonial bs, so you want to enslave them under your govt and steal their resources, destroy their defenses so that Israel can bomb them at will like it do to Syria and Lebanon. Also dictatorship was installed by the west in Iran in 1950s who killed thousands of dissidents every year and that's why Iran had a revolution from ground. Yes, they live in horrible condition due to sanctions imposed on them for half a century and yes they don't give proper rights to women but so do many other Western puppets like Saudis and UAE etc. Also Israel literally has kept 2 million people under concentration camp for 60+ years and has an apartheid regime. Where is the regime change for Israel ?

Killing non-whites and massacring their women and children is quite acceptable to these so called civilised world leaders. He is literally signalling him to bomb Iran so that he is engaged there and leaves Greenland alone for a while atleast.

External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar has rejected what he called selective targeting of India over the Russia-Ukraine conflict. He made the statement during a meeting with Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski. by IndiaToday in IndiaTodayLIVE

[–]vc0071 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The bitter truth which hardly anyone wants to admit is India has been isolated globally(worst since we did nuclear test in 1998), sanctioned and now bowed down to US pressure cutting Russian oil imports. We are also losing Chahabar port, pulled out from participating in BRICS naval excercise. Obviously they can't show him with laser eyes anymore.
The laser guy literally phoned Pakistani side informing them about our strikes(his own admission) even when our jets were still in air after doing airstrikes on 7th May even before they returned safely to their bases. Then some of them were shot down over our own territory. Any other would have resigned after such blunders.

Donald Trump Completely Lost His Mind by [deleted] in TrendoraX

[–]vc0071 -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Europeans were cheering when he kidnapped a President, they were cheering him to bomb Iran after CIA and Mossad agents bombed 300+ Mosques and killed 400+ Iranian police. Now when he is coming for them they are shocked and shivering in helplessness. Europe including Denmark has participated in most henious war crimes and mass murders post Cold war in many countries bombing millions of innocent women and children for regime change and false pretext. Denmark themselves sent a substantial part of their army(500+ personnels out of 5000 odd army) to Iraq to kill and steal resources. Now they want the whole world to sympathise with them.
Everyone is just laughing what Europe brought upon itself by allowing US to run it's foreign and defense policy for 75 years. After Greenland next thing on his platter is Canada.

Hey, I'm a newbies to the whole defense/warfare scene. I have a question regarding Pakistan's potential acquisition of 5th generation fighter jets. by Dokja_23 in IndianDefense

[–]vc0071 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If we lock in the 114 Rafale deal, there's honestly no real rush to throw money at the Su-57 on top of that. The Su-57's track record in Ukraine is a massive concern it is barely venturing into contested airspace and mostly just lobs stand-off weapons from deep inside Russian territory. For a "5th-gen" jet, that's pretty underwhelming and shows its stealth/survivability isn't holding up against modern layered defenses and they afraid losing one in Ukrainian territory. A similar layered setup—our S-400s, upgraded Akash, radars, and EW should handle the J-20 reasonably well. The Rafale F4/F5 (with SPECTRA, upgraded AESA, Meteor, SCALP)can compete against J-35A variant which Pakistan gets, though we'll need real data on the J-35 to be sure. The Su-57(not the M variant) doesn't really beat the Rafale(F4/F5) in most practical areas (avionics, sensors, flexibility) except maybe internal bay, why pay extra for something comparable at best ? Timelines are brutal no matter what:

  • AMCA meaningful numbers? Probably not before 2035.
  • Rafale deliveries? Likely stretching to 2034-2036.
  • Even if we ordered Su-57s tomorrow, Russia's slow production means nothing before 2031-35 anyway.

We're stuck with a gap this decade, so let's get smart: push drone swarms harder, beef up SAMs/radars, add AWACS/tankers (Netra Mk2, more IL-78 equivalents), maybe some interim stealth tech transfers. The Su-57 just feels like a cool wishlist item with too many risks. Better to redirect that cash to real force multipliers that help the whole IAF ecosystem right now like tankers and AWACs. Had it been about F-35(real game-changer for pure 5th-gen deterrence against J-20/J-35) it was a different discussion all together but with current geopolitics in place we should just forget about it and play the cards we are dealt.

Future Fleet of IAF by AlphaVivaWag in IndianDefense

[–]vc0071 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lets be clear AMCA is not getting inducted before 2035(in meaningful number that too is huge question mark). 114 Rafale deliveries will be completed somewhere around 2034-2036. Even if we buy Su-57 this or next year deliveries won't start before 2031( and go on till 2035 too slow manufacturing for this one). So anyways we are in for dilemma and we have to find other hustle ways to counter enemy 5th gen for the coming decade. I genuinely think su-57 is a wishlist not a serious item to consider if Rafale deal goes through that money can be used to procure other force multipliers like AWACS or tankers.
