India - Pakistan - China | 2025

Decent follow up assessment of the air war between Pak and India, Sobering infact. Not so much about India’s Air Force but western technologies.
People are looking at it hard I would think.

Dubbed possibly the largest air battle since WW2 and certainly the most technologically involved battle yet seen.

India decries 'sabre rattling' after Pakistan army chief's reported nuclear remarks:
NEW DELHI, Aug 11 (Reuters) - India on Monday accused its neighbour Pakistan of "sabre rattling" and "irresponsibility" after media reports on remarks about nuclear threats in South Asia made by Pakistan's army chief while on a visit to the United States. Indian media reports, citing sources, quoted Pakistan's Field Marshal Asim Munir as saying: "We are a nuclear nation. If we think we are going down, we'll take half the world down with us".

An excerpt of his speech shared by Pakistani security officials did not include the "nuclear nation" remarks. "Pakistan is a responsible nuclear weapon state with an elaborate command and control structure under full civilian control," a statement from Pakistan's foreign office said.

"It has always exercised discipline and restraint, while dealing with the issues of such importance." Munir reportedly made the remarks at a black-tie dinner hosted by a Pakistani-origin businessman in Florida on Saturday, where he spoke to a crowd of more than 100 people. Reuters could not independently verify the remarks.

Both Trump & the Chinese met the Pakistani Army's chief. It's why I kept emphasising earlier that it's he who has authority over everything including Pakistan's nuclear arsenal. Pakistan is a democratic civilian-governed state in name only.
